Winterizing Tasks for Your Home

#Winterizing your home is important if you want to catch any issues and make repairs before they become more costly or disruptive. Clean the gutters, cut back overhanging trees, caulk windows and doors against drafts, reverse your ceiling fans, and schedule an inspection and tune-up for the furnace. Also inspect your roof and clean the gutters to keep moisture out, Kiplinger says. And if you want to avoid frozen and burst pipes and they damage they can cause, disconnect all garden hoses, locate shutoff valves for outdoor faucets, drain those faucets completely and insulate them with an outdoor faucet cover. #HomeWinterization
