Our St Louis & St Charles winter weather is here!
\nHere are some tips to help you save some energy, as well as prepare your home for the winter weather:<\/p>\n
-Use foam pipe wrap on your hot water supply lines, to hold in heat during the cold weather.
\n-Use foam pipe wrap on both hot and cold supply lines that are near the perimeter of your home, to help prevent those pipes from freezing and bursting, during the severely cold days and nights coming soon.
\n-Consider purchasing a hot water heater blanket wrap and installing it, to hold the temperature of water in your water heater.
\n-Use 6 mill(or heavier) clear plastic on basement windows, or other windows in your home, that may not get used. This will help reduce the draft at those locations, but will allow sunlight to radiate through.
\n-Disconnect exterior garden hoses, and close shut-off valves to the spigots. Many pipe freezes occur at exterior hose spigots.
\n-If you will be traveling during the colder time of winter, consider having your water systems winterized for the duration of your trip, especially if you will be gone for an extended time. Alternatively, have someone check-in on your home twice a day, to insure that your heating system is functioning properly. Many of the water damage service calls we receive, occurred while a client was out of town for an extended period of time.
\n-Consider installing new insulation in your attic. Often times, you can recover what you spend on insulating your attic in as little as 5 years.
\n-Don’t forget about your sump pump. Fast snow melts can increase the amount of water headed towards your sump pump. Make sure it is running properly all year round, to avoid costly water damage insurance claims, or possibly out-of-pocket water damage claims, if you’re not covered.<\/p>\n
Following these tips can help you save money, both on your heating costs, as well as possibly help prevent costly repairs from water damage, caused by winter weather.<\/p>\n
If you do happen to have water damage in your home, we are available 24\/7 for emergency services. We work for you, not the insurance company, to make certain you receive everything you are entitled to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
