Follow these 4 simple tips to stay safe during this upcoming winter storm!❄️🌨️
1.) Protect your pipes
Insulate exposed pipes in basements, crawl spaces, and garages. When temperatures drop hard, let faucets drip slightly to prevent freezing and burst pipes (future-you will be grateful).
2.) Stock up on essentials
Have a few days’ worth of food, water, medications, flashlights, batteries, and a backup phone charger ready. Power outages love to show up uninvited during winter storms.
3.) Seal up drafts and check heat sources
Weatherstrip doors and windows, seal gaps, and make sure your furnace or heating system is serviced and working efficiently. A warm home = less strain on your system and lower energy bills.
4.) Prepare for snow and ice removal
Keep shovels, ice melt, and a snow blower accessible and fueled. Clearing walkways quickly helps prevent ice buildup and keeps everyone safer coming and going.
