The Schwartz family is building a home and we are getting it ready for the fall with Hoffmann Brothers! It’s been a stressful 2 months because we are living in boxes! I am huge on schedules and routines so it’s been a little hectic. It has always been a dream to design my own home, but some parts of it are not so dreamy like building delays. We were originally scheduled to move in the end of September but it keeps getting pushed back. Life is a little unsettling right now but that’s okay. I know great things come for those who wait and our family is making some pretty special memories in the condo.

Taking care of your home for fall is so important because you have to preserve and maintain things that are not being seen. I am so happy to partner with Hoffmann Brothers to help you prep your home for the fall so that you can your family can enjoy the amazing home you have built for many years to come.

1. Schedule an HVAC tune-up with Hoffmann Brothers- When the temp starts to drop outside, you do not want things to go wrong with your heater. Scheduling a tune-up twice a year can prevent issues from happening with your HVAC system. Click here to learn more about the protection plan from Hoffmann Brothers.
2. Change your air filter– Did you know that you need to change your air filter every 3 months?
3. Schedule an air duct cleaning– Duct cleaning helps to improve air quality in your home! Without regular cleanings, the air ducts may accumulate dust particles, pollen, mold, and other debris. Once you turn on the HVAC system, it recirculates the pollutants, which impacts the comfort of your house and affects your family member’s health
4. Clean around your outdoor HVAC units– this task can cause up to a 30% energy increase.
5. Clean off and cover your outdoor furniture– Covering your outdoor furniture can help it last longer during the cold winter months.
6. Fix any cracks in your driveway– When water gets in the cracks, it can expand and cause them to get bigger.
7. Clean the gutters and install gutter guards– as the leaves start to fall, they can clog up your gutters. If you leave them clogged for too long, you can end up with a flooded interior or damaged exterior.
8. Test home safety devices– it’s a great idea to go ahead and check your smoke detector and carbon monoxide batteries.
9. Plant bulbs for spring– now is a great time to plant your bulbs and can you imagine how pretty they will be in the spring?
10. Fertilize your lawn– applying lawn fertilizer will prevent winter damage and spring weeds.
11. Bring in flowerpots– Empty, clean, and dry pots, and put them away for next spring.
