As our homes go through the freeze and thaw cycles, it is important that we take valuable and proactive steps to prevent issues. Due to the tilt of the Earth’s axis, the northern hemisphere begins to see the winter-scape come back to life with daffodils blooming, grass greening, and temperatures warming during late March into early April. As exciting as that can be, so many things need to be done to prepare for the warmer season, including spring cleaning, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors tested, and filters changed.
The activities I do to prepare for warmer weather include changing furnace filters, checking generator fuel, and changing batteries in smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors.
By preparing for the change in season you can prevent some issues or at the least be more prepared to deal with them. Changing filters is a good way to keep your HVAC system cleaner and problem free. The time change for daylight savings time should always coincide with filter and battery changes.
