winterise Your

home

By following some basic maintenance procedures every autumn, your home will last longer, provide better insulation in winter, and provide for low-maintenance solutions later on.

Annual check up for boiler or water heating sytem. For electrical heat, vacuum the baseboard units and check thermostats. For oil and gas boilers, you should follow the service interval guide as recommened by the installer or manufacturer.

with these winter prep tips... part one Clean gutters after most of the leaves have fallen. Also, check the wood behind the gutters to see if it is in need of repairs. If you have a lot of leaves, you might consider installing some type of gutter guard.

Check for caulk anywhere masonry meets siding, where pipes or wires enter the house, and around window and door frames and at the corner joints formed by siding. Redo the caulk if necessary.

Caulking is good for weather proofing, and also keeps out moisture and dirt.

Check for proper insulation and add to it if necessary.Your attic floor is one of the most important spots, since the heat from your home will rise and be lost. Seal any air leaks in your home, especially around windows and doors.

We are passionate about desig!

SAVING YOU MONEY • KEEPING YOU WARM

...Here are more tips to get your house ready for the winter season Mulch your gardens and around your trees to keep them warm for the winter.

Check for loose or peeling paint on the exterior of your house. This is the time to paint your house if necessary, or just touch it up in the problem areas. Follow the manufacturer's advice for weather conditions and wall preparation.

Now is, of course, the time for leaf raking. After you are done raking for the last time, mow your grass as short as possible to prevent matting, disease and possible rodent damage.

After cutting grass for the last time, run the lawn mower out of gas.

Change the oil, grease the engine, pull and inspect the spark plug. While the plug is out, place a few drops of 5 wt. oil in the hole and pull the start cord a few times to lubricate the engine.

Fertilize the lawn with a high phospherous mixture to promote root growth and make your lawn greener next year.

In late fall, drain and remove your garden hose, and either shut off the water to it or install covers over the spicket.

Plant flower bulbs, including lilies, daffodils and tulips.

With the rising cost of fuel, and our winter’s getting colder the issue of energy efficiency is an important factor to consider when improving your home. Timoney Windows have excellent thermal insulation properties which can significantly reduce heating bills. By retaining heat for longer within the property, heating times can be cut and this, in turn, will save on fuel.
