How can I fix a frozen pipe safely without causing damage?

You can safely thaw a frozen pipe by shutting off the water, relieving pressure, and warming the pipe slowly. Open nearby faucets. Use a hair dryer, UL‑listed heat tape, or warm towels on the pipe. Start at the faucet end and work toward the frozen section. Do not use open flames. Watch for leaks as ice melts. If a pipe is split or you can’t find the freeze, call for 24/7 emergency help in Idaho Falls or Rexburg.
