10 Ways to Prepare Your Home for Fall

Today we welcome Fall, my favorite time of year.  In San Diego we’ve seen a weather change in the last week and it’s certainly welcomed.

Because I work best from lists (just ask my husband), I’ve put together a Top 10 List to prepare your home for the Fall season.  Hope you find a “list” as helpful as I do . . .

 

Top 10 Household Fall Preparations

1.  Inspect and clean gutters.

2.  Seal gaps and cracks around windows and doors.

3.  Inspect and repair roof.

4.  Replace and clean furnace filters.

5.  Schedule a visit with your local chimney sweep.

6.  Test smoke detectors, CO monitors and check expirations dates on fire extinguishers.

7.  Prepare your home for the holiday season (paint touch-ups, carpet cleaning, order furniture for company, purchase new linens, etc.)

8.  Purchase any needed kitchen items for the busiest baking season of the year.

9.  Order window treatments to keep in the warm cozy air in your home, and to keep the chill outside.

10.  Last but now least, put out that “Welcome” sign at your front door to greet all of your guests.
