Winter Maintenance Checklist

• Confirm that firewood #firewood is stored at least 20 feet away from your home (attracts termites).
• Remove hoses from outdoor water spigots and insulate if necessary.
• Familiarize responsible family members with the gas main shut-off valve, main and interior water shut-off valve,  and other appliance valves.
• Check and clean or replace furnace air filters each month during the heating season.
• Monitor your home for excessive moisture levels – – for example, condensation on your windows, which can cause significant damage over time and pose serious health problems – – and take corrective action.
• Examine windows and doors for ice accumulation or cold air leaks. If found, make a note to repair or replace in the spring.
• Examine attic for frost accumulation. Check roof for ice dams or icicles.
• Make sure all electrical holiday decorations have tight connections.
• Test all AFCI and GFCI devices.
• Only when it is safe to do so, occasionally check for ice-dam formation in the gutters.
