WINTER IS OFFICIALLY HERE!
With temperatures dropping and snow in some parts of the state, here are some tips to help you prepare your home/business for this winter weather: • Add a second layer of insulation to the attic. • Caulk around windows and doors, install weather-stripping and check for cracks around electrical outlets and pipes. • Install storm windows and doors. • Have the heating system checked by a professional. • Clean gutters. Clogged gutters can result in flooding when snow melts. • Have chimneys inspected and cleaned by a professional. • Drain and shut off outdoor water faucets. • Insulate water pipes that are exposed to the cold.
