Fall Home Maintenance Tips

Fall Home Maintenance Tips
for the Fort Collins Co., Northern Colorado and Cheyenne Wy. Southern Wyoming area.
 
Windows and Doors:

Early fall is the best time to clean & seal drafty doors and windows. Also add 3M© Window Insulator Kits, or like window films at windows you don't use during the winter. If you added up all of the small cracks where heating and cooling escapes from your home, it would be the same as having a large hole in one of your outside walls. Before the early winter snow arrives take some time to replace the window panes that have broken their vacuum seals.
 
 


Outdoor Faucets:

Always disconnect your hose from the outdoor faucet after using it during months that freezing might take place. Here in Northern Colorado that is usually from the end of September to sometime in March. So if you don’t want water damage and plumbing repairs remember to remove those hoses from the outdoor faucets.
