Keeping Your Home Safe and Efficient This Season

As temperatures drop across our region, Anderson Bros. Electric, Plumbing, & Heating, Inc. wants to remind homeowners about essential maintenance and safety measures for the winter months ahead. With increased demands on your home’s electrical and plumbing systems during cold weather, taking preventive steps can help avoid costly emergencies.

Electrical Safety Priorities

Your home’s electrical system faces unique challenges during winter. With shorter days leading to more lighting usage and holiday decorations adding to the load, it’s crucial to ensure your electrical system is operating safely and efficiently.

Key electrical considerations include:
• Checking for loose or damaged outlets
• Testing all GFCI outlets monthly
• Inspecting extension cords for wear
• Verifying proper function of outdoor lighting
• Ensuring circuit breakers are properly labeled

Plumbing Protection

Winter’s freezing temperatures can wreak havoc on plumbing systems. Prevention is always better than emergency repairs, so consider these important steps:

• Insulating exposed pipes
• Sealing drafts near plumbing
• Maintaining consistent indoor heating
• Knowing the location of your main water shutoff
• Dripping faucets during extreme cold snaps

Heating System Maintenance

A well-maintained heating system is essential for both comfort and safety. Regular maintenance helps ensure:

• Optimal energy efficiency
• Consistent heating throughout your home
• Reduced risk of system failure
