Change The Direction Of Your Ceiling Fans
Changing the direction of your ceiling fans every spring will help keep your home cool and save energy! Make sure your ceiling fan is rotating counter clockwise in the spring and summer to push the cool air down.
Clean Your Gutters
Clean out your gutters every spring to make sure they are clear of buildup and debris from the fall and winter. Remove any leaves and fix any damage to the gutters to keep your home from getting water damaged which can turn into expensive leaks.
Inspect Your Roof
Have your roof professionally inspected to make sure there isn't any damage or leaks from the ice and snow during the winter. Addressing roof issues now can save you tons of money in the future and can also help regulate your heating and cooling systems, which will save you money in energy costs.
Power Wash Your Siding
Cleaning the siding of your home will boost your curb appeal and prolong the life of your siding. We recommend renting a power washer to clean the outside of your home and get it ready for summer!
