Preparing your home for the summer season

The weather is heating up, and it’s time to start thinking about preparing your home for summer. Summer involves a lot more time outside and entertaining. It involves lots of sunshine and the need to stay cool and protected. Owning a home involves lots of upkeep and the summer is no exception. At Pizano Insurance in Wayzata, MN we are here to lower your stress level with one-stop insurance shopping. As an independent agency, we provide our customers with access to multiple carriers which allows them more choices. 

Service your AC

When the temperature rises, it’s time to turn on the air conditioning. If you have a central ac unit, it’s time to get your yearly check-up. Nothing is worse than having your system stop working in the steamy heat. Yearly maintenance can keep your system operating at peak performance and extend the life of your unit. 

Trees

If you have trees on your property winter can be tough on them. Look for damage, if you find some it is time to get an Arborist in to check the health of your trees. You may need some limbs trimmed or removed. Falling branches pose a safety hazard to you, your guest, and your property.

Make sure gutters are clear

Summer can bring heavy rain, and it is important that your gutters and downspouts are running freely. Check to make sure that the water is being directed away from your home to avoid foundation issues. 

Service your lawn moving equipment 

If you maintain your own lawn, preparing for summer means getting out the mower and the weed whacker and making sure they are working well and that you have enough line for the whacked.
