Heating & Cooling

2. Change filters: Replace or clean your air filters every 1-3 months to improve air quality and reduce energy consumption.

3. Programmable thermostats: Install a smart thermostat to automatically adjust temperatures and save on energy bills.

4. Seal air leaks: Check for drafts around windows and doors, and seal them to maintain consistent indoor temperatures.

Plumbing

1. Prevent clogs: Use drain screens in sinks and showers to catch hair and debris before they cause blockages.

2. Water pressure: Monitor your water pressure regularly and install a pressure regulator if needed to prevent damage to pipes and fixtures.

3. Leak detection: Regularly inspect visible pipes and fixtures for leaks, and address them promptly to avoid water damage and waste.

4. Water heater maintenance: Flush your water heater annually to remove sediment and improve efficiency.
