November Home Maintenance Checklist

HMChecklist (1).jpg

Service the Furnace

Schedule a professional inspection of your furnace to make sure it’s working efficiently. Replace the air filter and consider a tune-up to ensure optimal heating throughout the winter.

Winterize Outdoor Faucets and Sprinkler Systems

Drain and disconnect hoses, and shut off the water supply to outdoor faucets to prevent pipes from freezing. Winterize sprinkler systems to avoid costly repairs in the spring.

Inspect and Clean the Chimney

If you use a fireplace, have a professional clean the chimney to remove creosote buildup and check for any structural issues. This prevents fire hazards and ensures proper ventilation.

Check Insulation in the Attic and Basement

Verify that your attic and basement are properly insulated. Adding extra insulation in these areas can significantly reduce heat loss and keep your home warmer.

Reverse Ceiling Fans

Reverse the direction of ceiling fans to create an upward draft. This helps circulate warm air throughout the room and can make your heating system more efficient.
