Frozen pipes can cause more than property damage. Sewage water from a busted pipe may contain viruses, bacteria, and other microbes that may cause serious illnesses. 

There are three types of contaminated water:

Category 1: "Clean water" is from a clean source like a broken water line; however, if left untreated, can degrade into category 2 or 3.

Category 2: "Gray water" may contain bacteria and viruses, and can quickly degrade into category 3 if left untreated.

Category 3: "Black water" comes from flooding rivers or sewer backup and may contain untreated sewage, harsh chemicals, and microbes.
