If you close all water shutoffs or all water faucets and the water flow indicator on your water meter is moving, then you might have a burst pipe. Also, if your pipes are frozen, no water is coming out of any faucets, and your water flow indicator on your water meter is moving, then you probably have a burst pipe. Hope this helps.

How do you get a frozen pipe loose and unscrewed?
You are lucky if you get to know that the pipes are frozen before it bursts out. At the very first place shut off the main valve of the pipe if you experience stopped water flow. Then leave the faucets open. Do not use any flames to unfreeze the pipes. Similarly, avoid using an electric heater, hair dryer that will come directly in contact with pipe as the leaking water might cause electrocution. Use the hot rod and connect it to the pipes to thaw it. After it is done, then switch on the valve and let the water flow through it slowly. Check if it is completely defrosted. Once it is done, take a big pipe wrench and slowly take out a pipe. Also use a backup wrench so that you will not end up losing something else. Still, if you are not confident of losing it is better to call a general plumber to avoid further issues.visit:-A-general.com
