Knowing how to maintain your home is an essiential part of protecting your investment. Regular maintenance now can prevent huge expenditures in the future.
Here is a quick rundown of the most common home maintenance misconceptions.
Noisy pipes are just house settling, nothing to worry about.
FALSE: The underlying cause of noisy pipes could be associated with viberations that loosen fittings and cause costly leaks.
Use salt during winter weather for traction on walkways.
FALSE: Salt can actually cause unsightly damage to pavement. Opt for kiyy litter or sand to do the trick without marring the pavement.
Hot water aids the breakdown of debris through the garbage disposal.
FALSE: Avoid clogs by using cold water during garbage disposal operation to solidify and flush greasy waste.
Run ceiling fans in the summer only to keep cool.
FALSE: In the winter, ceiling fans aid heating by circulating warm air that accumulates near the ceiling. For maximum efficiency, run ceiling fans clofckwise in the winter and counterclockwise in the summer.
