The harsh, cold winter of Illinois is coming, and in order to remain safe and healthy this winter season, it is important to take the time to prepare. With these preparations in place, you will be ready to brave the storm:
- Make your home winter efficient. Winter’s elements can certainly take a toll on your home. This is why you should prepare your home now, so that your family will remain warm and comfortable when the temperature begins to drop. You should check all windows and doors for drafts. If you feel any cool air coming into your home, the window or door will need to be properly resealed or replaced before December arrives. Make sure that your attic is properly insulated, as well as any major water lines. Also, set aside a day to clean out all of your gutters, as well as repair any leaking pipes or leaks in your roof.
