Are You a Homeowner? Here is What You Should Think About as Spring Approaches.
Things Homeowners Should Think About As Spring Approaches.
The snow is slowly melting and the warmth of the sun begins to fill your home. As a homeowner, you need to think about your home’s heating and cooling systems, plumbing systems and drainage systems.
How well are the mechanical systems in your home prepared for the change? Did winter affect the functioning of some of these systems? A R Engh Heating and Air Conditioning has advice for you to ensure that your home installations are spring ready.
HVAC System
Ensure you turn on your AC. But before you do, start by inspecting the outdoor unit then check the duct work. Furthermore, it’s important to have your AC unit cleaned once every year. This ensures that the system is primed to work effectively for you this Summer.
Plumbing System
Listen for leaks within your home's walls when you are turning on your outside water spigots. Pipes often burst during winter. Check out what you should do if your plumbing freezes. You should also check your sump pump to make sure it is working properly.
Consider removing snow that has built up around your house before melting. Snow build up can lead to water damage. You need to clear your gutters of dirt and leaves. The snow on your roof should drain with ease.
Pipelining
You need to have your home sewer inspected for cracks, breaks or tree roots. Look out for these common signs of sewer line damage
