Home Maintenance Checklist for Fall and Winter # 3

Things you can do to improve air quality and reduce potential health risks: 

  • When adjusting clocks, change batteries in smoke alarms, as well as radon and carbon monoxide detectors. 
  • Consider a ventilation system to increase air circulation inside and add a healthy dose of fresh air.
  • Clean water-damaged carpets and materials, or consider replacement.
  • Reduce the potential for buildup of allergy-causing pollutants by keeping your house clean 
  • Take special precaution when operating fuel-burning appliances to avoid leakage. Store and dispose of household chemicals in a safe manner.
