Preparing your home in Santa Monica is easier than you think. The fall months can involve different weather patterns, as well as use of different things in your home. A simple checklist can ensure you don’t forget anything and even provide you with a few chores you wouldn’t have thought about.
Schedule an HVAC Inspection
You have probably been using your air-conditioning a lot throughout the summer. Whether you plan on turning the air-conditioning off and allowing the cool weather to blow through your windows or you plan on turning on the heat, you want to schedule an HVAC inspection. This way, a technician can ensure that your system is running at peak performance.
Clean Gutters
The gutter should be clean, whether you do it on your own or hire a professional. This way leaves and other debris can be cleared out. Without doing this, additional leaves could fall in, and you could run into issues where rust and corrosion forms.
Have Gas Inspected
If you have a gas furnace or anything else powered by gas, be sure you have the gas lines inspected. This way, as you begin using them on the cooler nights, you can be confident that all is working properly.
Check Your Home
Now is the perfect time to check your home for possible fire hazards. You should also change out the batteries on smoke detectors and ensure that you have fire extinguishers throughout the home.
A little bit of preparation can go a long way. When you take the time to go through your home, you will have less to worry about. You can also enjoy peace of mind throughout the fall and into the winter.
