Your Fall Maintenance Checklist For a Clean Home With Clean Air

‘Tis the season for crisp air, falling leaves, and pumpkin everything. If you are like many other people and feel invigorated by the fall season, you should channel your energy into getting your home ready for the winter ahead. Lowe’s Air Duct Cleaning can help you cross a couple of items off your fall maintenance checklist as you prepare your home for the changing weather conditions. We have put together a checklist of fall maintenance tasks that will benefit your household before winter sets in.

Fall home maintenance tasks

Clean Your Gutters and Downspouts

Gutters and downspouts should be cleaned 1-2 times per year, and late fall is an ideal time to accomplish that. Once the final leaves have fallen, you should either complete this task yourself or hire a professional who can safely do it for you. You’ll want to clear the leaves and other debris out of your gutters and downspouts so that water can flow freely, preventing damage to your roof and foundation.

Inspect Your Roof for Damage

Check your roof for any missing shingles or other evidence of potential damage to make sure your household can stay warm and dry throughout the winter. Roof damage isn’t always easy to spot, so you may want to hire a professional if you think your roof may have sustained some damage from storms in the spring and summer.

Service Your HVAC System 

You should schedule preventive maintenance for your HVAC system annually so that it can continue to run smoothly. When your HVAC system is serviced, it will be able to operate much more efficiently. This routine maintenance could also prevent a breakdown by isolating a smaller problem before it becomes a big problem.

Schedule Dryer Vent Cleaning

You should schedule professional dryer vent cleaning each year to avoid serious risks and an increase in your utility bills. Cleaning your dryer vent will improve your air quality by eliminating the lint buildup that could trap moisture and create a breeding ground for mold and mildew. Your dryer will be able to run more efficiently and consume less energy.

Schedule Air Duct Cleaning 

We are entering the season when people spend the majority of their time indoors, and clean air becomes even more important. Professional air duct cleaning will remove dust and other contaminants from your home, improve your air quality, and increase the efficiency of your HVAC system. This is especially necessary if you live with furry pets, renovated your home this year, or it has been a few years since your last duct cleaning.
