If you haven't already prepared your home for winter here's my personal checklist to help you get ready.
Have your gutters cleaned
Inspect your downspouts
Add or replace worn weather stripping around windows and doors
Add insulation
Have your furnace serviced or at least change your filters and remove any grass, leaves, or other debris around your outdoor unit that may be blocking the air flow
Check your ductwork for leaks, damage, and clogged vents
Inspect your windows and add new caulking
Have your chimney cleaned
Wrap your pipes
Replace smoke alarm batteries
Purchase a carbon monoxide detector
Add insulating foam around pipes underneath cabinets and exterior walls
Have your roof inspected and replace any damaged shingles or flashing
Trim your trees if the branches hang too close to the house or electrical wires
