Winterizing

We may not get winters like they do up North, but here in the Southeast we get fall storm and hurricanes that need to be cleaned up after before winter gets here.  Here are few tips I believe need to be done to get ready for the upcoming season.

1. Have your hvac system maintenanced and change or clean your filters regularly.
2. Clean gutters and remove any debris from your roof.
3. Check the weather stripping around your doors.  If you can see daylight, then it needs to be replaced.
4. Check your windows to make sure they are shutting tightly.
5. Remove any standing water on the property.
6. Trim any dead limbs on the trees and remove any dead bushes and plant material from around your house.
7. Have your dryer vent cleaned.  
8. Check for any dry rot and or mold.

I hope this will get you started.  Most of these items are geared to save you energy cost.  Saving money where you can, is always a win win!
