Are You Ready for Winter?

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

We hope you have a safe and warm winter.
