Now that fall has arrived, and Orange County has experienced a few winter storms, it is time to make sure that your Newport Beach home is in tip top shape.
Here is a list of some tips:
- Change your smoke detector batteries - this is usually done two times a year with the change of daylight savings time.
- Change the filters for the HVAC.
- Clean out the leaves in your rain gutters, and make sure water is diverted away from your home.
- Make sure there is no area near the foundation of your home that water can pool.
- Clean windows and screens if you live near the ocean and the salt air can corrode the frames.
- Make sure you have no roof leaks, and if you suspect one have it inspected by a qualified roofing professional.
- Change the water filter in refrigerator - most newer refrigerators have a sensor, but to make sure the water has been filtered for both drinking water and for ice.
By performing simple maintenance on your home, can prevent damage at some point in the future.
