Additional Fall Maintenance Checklist:
Give Your Gutters Some Love
Falling foliage and above average rain can clog your gutters. This is the perfect time to make sure there is no build-up. If you have a leaf blower, use it to clean them out and remove branches or leaves that have made your roof home. If you can’t use a leaf blower, this is another option from House Logic for clearing out gutters. To prevent clogging, especially during the fall, consider installing a leaf guard to help cut down on the cleaning. Last but not least, don’t forget to check your downspout to ensure it can funnel water down and away from your home’s foundation.
Inspect Your Roof
If you are putting up holiday decorations, this is also the perfect time to inspect your roof. It’s a good time to look at the condition of the shingles and check that they aren’t buckling or missing patches.
If your roof is in poor condition, it may not be able to handle heavy rains this fall and winter, which may lead to leaks and water damage if it is not repaired.
Seal Up Your Home
Gaps and cracks in the exterior of your home can allow moisture in adn affect your energy efficiency. Check around your pipes, door frames, and windows for any gaps or cracks. This article from energy.gov has the easiest way to detect air leaks in your home and how you can seal them up yourself.
Fall HVAC maintenance can be easily forgotten, but with proper upkeep, your home will be ready for the changing seasons. By completing these tasks, you will be enjoying the fall season with your family instead of repairing your home!
