Many homeowners don’t consider the maintenance required to keep plumbing and HVAC systems running well until a problem occurs. Having a professional inspect your heating and cooling systems, water heater, and pipework can help prevent costly repairs or replacements. Chesapeake Home Services, LLC is here to help you get started with a back-to-school checklist for plumbing, heating, and air conditioning.
Fall Home Maintenance To-Do List
Change Air Filters
Air filters should be changed every three months. With summer travel and vacations, filters are often overlooked, which can reduce HVAC efficiency. Set calendar reminders to stay on schedule. If your HVAC system or thermostat still isn’t working properly, contact Chesapeake Home Services, LLC before colder temperatures arrive.
Check Faucets for Leaks
As routines return in the fall, inspect pipes under kitchen and bathroom sinks for leaks and tighten fittings where possible. Chesapeake Home Services, LLC can perform a full system inspection so you have an established relationship with a plumbing company before an emergency occurs. Learn more about our maintenance plans.
