As our homes go through the freeze and thaw cycles, it is important that we take valuable and proactive steps to prevent issues. Due to the tilt of the Earth’s axis, the northern hemisphere begins to see the winter-scape come back to life with daffodils blooming, grass greening, and temperatures warming during late March into early April. As exciting as that can be, so many things need to be done to prepare for the warmer season, including spring cleaning, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors tested, and filters changed.
The activities I do to prepare for warmer weather include a good spring cleaning, organizing areas, and throwing away unused items. The benefits of cleaning, it makes your home or work environment not only smell clean, but it is organized, making other tasks easier. A good cleaning makes the environment around you more calming.
I also complete preventive maintenance on the HVAC systems, changing filters and cleaning coils, to ensure they are not only working properly, but are cost effective.
