A Quick Winter Prep Checklist

• Disconnect garden hoses and shut off outdoor spigots.
• Schedule a furnace tune-up and replace the filter.
• Find your main water shutoff before you need it.
• Have trees near the roof, driveway or power lines checked before heavy snow.
• Clean gutters and make sure drainage carries water away from the foundation.
