It is the last month of the year! Is your home ready for the holiday spirit, chilly cold nights, and to ring in the new year? There is no time to wait, as we all know how quickly this month will fly by! Luckily for you, we have you covered with these helpful tips on what should be done around your home!
- Check the operation of all ground-fault circuit interrupter outlets by pushing the "test" button. The "reset" button should pop out, indicating the receptacle is operating properly! Just be sure to press the reset button again.
- No one should face a terrible flood during the season! Check inside bathroom vanities and kitchen sink cabinets for moisture and other signs of leaks. Carefully inspect pipes for condensation or slow drips. Repair the plumbing system if necessary.
- For safety, review the family fire escape plan with every household member. Better to safe than sorry.
- Unpack and test all electrical holiday decorations. Repair or discard any that do not function properly.
- This is the time of year to watch for sales on tools before and after the holiday season.
Have a great month homeowners! See you in the new year!!
