What your home needs this year.

Keep it well-maintained...the Guide of What you need to do and When:

Winter-

Clean the Vent behind your dryer - machine will work quicker, lower risk of fires - Cost $15-45.

Check your furnace filter - change it one-twice a year. Cost - $8-20/each

Make sure your sump - pump is clean and operating properly

Storm windows will keep the house warm

Vacuum condenser coils

Use your stuck-inddors time to knock off some annual fire prevention tasts. Less that $20 for fire extinguisher and $10-12 for circuit interrupter.

Change batteries the same day you change clocks in smoke detectors and carbon-monoxide alarms twice a year.
