• If you are very careful and if you are reasonably experienced handyman/woman, you can also use a heat gun.

The frozen water pipe should begin to thaw after a while.

Using cloths and hot water

• If you are unable to thaw the water pipe in the above manner, you can also try using warm cloths.
• Wrap the cloths around the pipe and pour hot water over them. Watch your hands and place a large bucket under the pipe.
