Simple Tips to Prepare for Winter
- Flip fans: Running fans clockwise in the winter helps push warm air down into the room to use heat more efficiently.
- Get a tune-up: Have your heating system serviced regularly to keep it running efficiently.
- Seal leaks: Check for leaks around doors and windows where warm air can escape. Use caulk and weather stripping to seal any openings.
- Trim trees: Cut back branches near your roof to avoid damage from ice and snow, and clean your gutters to avoid water damage during a freeze.
- Test detectors: Test your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and change their batteries each year.
