What should I do to prepare my home for summer?
By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®
Service your air conditioning system, check window screens for tears, seal any gaps around windows and doors to keep cool air in, inspect outdoor faucets and hoses, clean the deck and patio furniture, and check your irrigation system. Summer storms can also bring strong winds, so check trees for dead branches.
Why It Matters
Proper summer preparation keeps your cooling costs down and prevents breakdowns during the hottest days of the year.
