With tough weather hitting our friends and neighbors hard in Buffalo, winter isn’t too far away. But are you ready?
Have your furnace serviced
Have your chimney inspected
Large generators should be serviced annually while smaller ones should be tested. Never run them in the garage or too close to the house
Clean out the gutters
Cut tree limbs back and clean up yard debris
Cover AC units to protect from damage
Turn off exterior spigots and drain the supply lines
Check smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Replace any detectors that are over 10 years old
Inspect the roof and have any damage repaired
Insulate supply lines that go through cold areas such as basements, attics & crawl spaces
If your house will be unattended for an extended period during cold weather, shut off water and drain supply lines. Also arrange for a friend or neighbor to check on your home while you are away
