Fall: Transitioning to Heating Season
As temperatures drop, it’s time to shift focus to your heating system:
- Schedule a furnace inspection and cleaning
- Test your heating system before cold weather hits
- Seal any air leaks around windows and doors
- Reverse ceiling fans to circulate warm air downward
Winter: Ensuring Warmth and Comfort
