Our homes are our havens from the world but sometimes, if we aren't properly prepared, the chill of winter can intrude. These simple tips can help you protect your home during the cold months, give you peace of mind when wintry weather strikes, and even save you money and reduce potential home insurance claims:- Inspect your furnace: Do you know that musty smell that emanates from your furnace the first time you turn it on each winter? That might not be from dust that's settled in the vents but could instead indicate a filtration problem. Change your furnace's filter before turning it on for the first time, and continue to change it monthly throughout the winter.
- Invest in a programmable thermostat: A programmable thermostat gives you better control over your heat while you are at home and away from home. The control offered by this inexpensive device can save you money while preventing the fire hazard sometimes presented by area heaters. Set your thermostat to lower temperatures at night when everyone is sleeping or during the day when the family is at work and school.
