Before you need them, check your snowblower and generators to make sure they are tuned up and ready for the season.
CHECK SMOKE DETECTORS AND FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
Make sure your fire safety protocol is in place with a quick check of each smoke and CO2 detector in the home.

In addition, make sure to have fire extinguishers in the kitchen, garage, and near fire sources such as woodstoves. Make sure your fire extinguisher is charged by looking at the dial on the meter near the top. SPRINKLER SYSTEMS Where there’s water, there is a potential for freezing temperatures to bust a pipe. Once the hot summer watering season ends, winterize your sprinkler system by blowing water out of the system and turning off all valves.
