� Have a professional inspect your roof for any damage that may cause water infiltration to occur when snow piles on.
Interior
Ensure your home interior is warm, dry and ready to remain so for the next few months.
� Apply an extra layer of caulking/sealant around windows and doors to prevent drafts.
� Remove screens from windows and doors (if necessary) and put storm windows in place. Similarly, remove black-out shades or curtains to allow sunlight to enter the home and keep it warmer naturally.
� Inspect your attic and consider adding extra insulation. Not only will this keep your home warmer in the winter, it�ll prevent heat from penetrating in the summer, thus keeping the home cooler.
� Have your fireplace and chimney serviced by a professional prior to seasonal use. Buildup of creosote can cause a flammable situation
