Brr... is your home ready for the cold weather ahead? ❄️🥶

A little winter prep goes a long way when it comes to saving energy and preventing costly repairs! Here are a few essential steps from TVA EnergyRight to take before temperatures freeze:

💧 Protect Your Pipes: Drain garden hoses and insulate outdoor spigots to avoid frozen pipes.
🚪 Block Drafts: Seal doors and windows with fresh weatherstripping.
🔥 Check Your Filters: Change your furnace filters to keep your heating system running efficiently.
🔄 Reverse Your Fans: Set your ceiling fans to spin clockwise on low to push warm air back down to your living spaces.
