winterizations
Cold weather preparations
Winterizations are acts of preparing something for winter conditions.
Vehicles, buildings, and equipment undergo winterization to protect against cold, ice, and snow: The winterizations of our fleet vehicles are scheduled for October.
The process typically involves adding antifreeze, insulating pipes, and sealing drafts.
