Follow on Google News | Homeowner's Insurance Fall Maintenance Tips from Elzey InsuranceA couple of useful tips to save you money on insurance.
By: Pat Elzey 1. Inspect and test your smoke detectors. Make sure that there is one on each floor of your home. Most companies give discounts for smoke detectors on homeowner's insurance policies. 2. Clean the clothes dryer exhaust duct and space under the dryer. Remove all lint and dust. 3. Check the caulking around your doors and windows, and repair it if it shows signs of deterioration. 4. Insulate your water pipes to protect them from freezing. 5. Have your chimney inspected and cleaned by a certified chimney sweep (and be sure to shake his hand for an extra dose of good luck!) 6. Check for damage to your roof and downspouts to keep debris from accumulating. You want to be sure that water drains away from your foundation: Damage due to standing water or flooding is NOT covered by a standard homeowner's insurance policy! If you live in a flood-prone zone, or if you feel that your home has exposure to damage by collecting rainwater, you might want to consider adding Flood Insurance to your home protection plan. NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT - flood insurance policies activate 30 days after you sign the application.
