Do you go away even for short trips in the winter? Do you have a plan in place to protect your home from disaster? Here are a few tips to help prevent a freeze up or flood that could cost you thousands, render your home uninhabitable, and cause problems with renewal of your Homeowners Insurance.
Homeowners leave their Cape Cod homes unprotected for many reasons. Often it is as simple as only planning to be gone for a long weekend. Our fickle electrical supply can cause a furnace to go off and not reset, and if weather is exceptionally cold, a freeze up can happen in just a short time. Hydronic (hot water baseboard) heating systems are more vulnerable, too. Maintenance issues should be attended to in the Fall-before the cold, snow and ice hit hard.
