SYRACUSE, NY EDITION
Doing your part in strengthening our local communities can be as easy a following local professionals and businesses on social media and sharing and commenting positively on their posts to show support and help them gain additional exposure. It’s an easy way to help them gain recognition and customers. Almost 72% of people say they trust online reviews just as much as in-person recommendations. Leaving positive feedback for local businesses on online platforms can help grow their business. By the way, most owners are responsive and caring so if you happen to have a negative experience, do your best to work it out privately with the owner. Did you know a whopping 92% of consumers trust recommendations from friends and family and over 50% of word-of-mouth recommendations lead to a purchase? That can be a major boost for businesses. The next time one of your friends or community members asks where to make a purchase or who they can contact for services, make it a point to refer them to a reputable local business or professional like those found in this issue of LifeandHomes. As much as possible we encourage you to shop within your community and to use the services of local professionals. When local businesses grow and succeed, our local community is strengthened. We can call that a win-win.

Smoke Alarms
Don’t Last
Forever When is the last time you replaced your smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) alarms? Smoke and CO alarms are critical elements of home safety. Yet, many people overlook replacing their batteries - or even the alarms themselves.. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), three out of every five home fire deaths occur in homes without properly working smoke alarms, or no alarms at all. First Alert, the most trusted brand in fire safety, offers the following tips to ensure your family and home are best protected in the event of a fire or CO incident: Every level, every bedroom. It’s critical to have enough smoke and CO alarms and ensure they are working properly. The NFPA recommends that smoke alarms be installed on every level of the home, including the basement, and in every bedroom. CO alarms should also be installed on every level and near each sleeping area. To put this in perspective, the averagesized home in America - a two-story, threebedroom house - needs a minimum of five smoke alarms and four CO alarms. Test and maintain. Many people assume that because they have alarms in their homes, they’re automatically protected in the event of a fire or CO incident. In reality, both smoke and CO alarms need to be maintained and tested regularly to ensure that they’re working properly. Nonetheless, research shows that more than 60% of consumers do not test their devices on a monthly basis. Testing the alarm is simple - hold down the test button and wait for the alarm to sound. It’s also important to clean the alarm to remove any dust or debris that could interfere with proper function.
newsShorts Alarms don’t last forever. If you don’t know how old an alarm is, the safest bet is to replace it. Check the date printed on the back of the device. If the alarm is more than 10 years old, it is time to replace it. It is necessary to replace all smoke alarms every 10 years and CO alarms every five to 10 years, depending on the model. Batteries also don’t last forever and should be replaced every six months, unless the alarm features a 10year sealed battery. As an extra safety measure, most alarms feature an end-of-life warning to alert residents when it is time for replacement. Double up on safety. Doubling up on safety and installing 2-in-1 protection, such as the First Alert 10-Year Battery Combination Smoke and CO Alarm, is a convenient way to ensure ultimate home safety by providing a decade of protection against both smoke and CO. Not only does the device warn you in case of smoke or CO dangers, but it also features a 10-year sealed battery, which eliminates the needs for battery replacements and late-night battery chirps for a decade. According to the NFPA, you may have less than two minutes to escape after your smoke alarms sound. Therefore, it is imperative to have an escape plan that everyone in the household follows to evacuate safely. When designing an escape plan, identify two ways out of each room, assign a meeting spot outside, and dedicate someone in the family to assist with elderly family members, infants and pets. Practice your escape plan with the entire family at least twice a year to help prepare for the unexpected. For more safety tips, visit www.firstalert.com. ~(BPT)
Lawn Mower
Safety
Reminders More than 8,490 children younger than 18 years are treated in emergency departments for lawn mower-related injuries each year.
Usually the victims are older children or teens, but one in four injuries occurs to children younger than 6 years. Almost half of the injuries to children younger than 6 years are burns to the hands. This usually happens when the child touches a hot motor. Bystanders are also injured by lawn mowers when the lawn mower ejects debris or if someone on a ride-on mower backs up over a child. Lawn mower-related injuries can be devastating, resulting in serious injuries, amputations or even death. Common lawn mower-related injuries are deep cuts; loss of fingers, hands, toes, or feet; broken and dislocated bones; burns; eye injuries; soft tissue damage; and sprains or strains.
Teach and supervise teens. Children should be at least 12 years old to operate a push mower and at least 16 years old before using a ride-on mower. An adult should supervise teens before they are allowed to operate a lawn mower on their own.
Kid-free zone. Children should never be passengers on ride-on mowers and children younger than 6 years of age should be kept indoors during mowing. Never let children play on or near a lawn mower, even when it is not in use
Before you mow. Pick up any stones or other objects in the grass. Objects thrown by a lawn mower can cause severe eye and other injuries. Put on protective eyewear and make sure you are wearing sturdy shoes.
While you mow. When using a walk-behind lawn mower, use a mower with a control that stops it from moving forward if the handle is released. Always mow going forward. If you absolutely have to mow in reverse, always look behind you before you start backing up.
Turn it off. Wait for the blades to stop completely before removing the grass catcher, unclogging the discharge chute, or crossing gravel roads. ~(Nationwide Childrens)

Home Improvements Worth Your $$$
Are you looking for ways to upgrade your home with the environment in mind, but worried about the expense? Fortunately, many home improvements are not as costly up front as they used to be, and the return on those investments - both in energy savings and your home’s value - is well worth the effort. Here are five ways to boost your home’s energyefficiency and make a difference for the planet.
1. Choose Energy Star certified products Have outdated appliances? For an efficiency upgrade, look for the blue Energy Star label on products ranging from appliances and electronics to lighting and HVAC systems as a simple way to save money and conserve energ. You can even find Energy Star windows, which can make a difference for the comfort of your home as well as lowering overall energy costs. For added value, appliances with the Energy Star “Most Efficient” designation highlights products delivering cutting-edge energy efficiency along with cutting-edge technological innovations.
2. Update your HVAC It’s good time to have a professional tune up your HVAC system to ensure peak performance and help prevent future problems. Heating and cooling cost the average homeowner about $875 a year, according to the EPA’s Energy Star website. If you’re still using a furnace for heat
newsShorts and a separate AC unit for cooling - it may be time to upgrade to something more advanced and efficient. Now, manufacturers such as LG offer a wide range of HVAC systems that offer both heating and cooling in a single unit, without sacrificing energy efficiency
3. Go solar You’ve heard about solar for years, but now may be the perfect time to switch to renewable energy. Solar energy can help power your home, saving hundreds of dollars in utility bills while also boosting your home’s value and providing peace of mind about helping the environment. Considering installing solar panels, but don’t know where to start? Now you can figure out what your home needs through a digital “solar concierge,” which can help you explore technology and financing decisions tailored to your situation. The solar concierge program from LG helps you determine whether going solar will meet your objectives and, if it does, how to get your installation fulfilled by a local installer. And remember that not all solar panels are created equal; it’s best to go with high-efficiency panels from a brand you know and trust.
4. Reduce air leaks and check insulation Sealing air leaks and adding insulation can help increase comfort and energy efficiency, and may provide up to a 10% savings on your annual energy bills, according to the EPA. Pay special attention to preventing air leaks (with simple foam insulation) when installing your window air conditioner for the summer. Simple fixes include installing weather-stripping on doors and caulking around windows, while bigger jobs include sealing leaks and adding insulation in your attic. Replacing aging windows and doors that are not energy efficient and that may have cracks or leaks will improve your home’s energy efficiency.
5. Upgrade your bathroom plumbing fixtures For older toilets, sinks or showerheads in your bathroom, upgrading to newer models can help save on your water bill, while also wasting a lot less water. Generally, today’s bathroom fixtures
use less water, which is more eco-friendly. Any improvements or upgrades made to your bathroom can also help boost your home’s value. Don’t know what to tackle first? Many energy or utility companies will offer homeowners a free energy audit. An expert comes to your home to determine the worst culprits in reducing your energy efficiency and air leakage around your house. This can help you target your improvements to achieve the best results in the quickest, most cost-effective way. (BPT) -.
Healthy Air, Healthy Home Asthma affects more than 24 million people in the U.S., including more than 6 million children, reports the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America In addition, more than 50 million Americans suffer from allergies each year. Experts say indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air. Fortunately, you can still be breathing clean. The air in your home circulates through the HVAC system and air ducts five to seven times a day. During the circulation process, allergens and other contaminants can settle in the air ducts and then get redistributed back into the air you and your family breathe. By having your air ducts properly cleaned, you keep dander, pollen, mold and the like from accumulating. Not just anyone can do the job. If a duct cleaning company’s deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. That’s why savvy homeowners turn to qualified contractors who are members of the National Air Duct Cleaners Association (NADCA). They follow a higher standard and a code of ethics. NADCA makes it really simple to find a certified air duct cleaning professional, via its online directory at www.nadca.com. (NAPSI)—
