You’ve packed the bags and loaded the car - but did you prep your pipes? Before you head out for summer vacation, take 5 minutes to run through this checklist:
Main Shut-Off: If you’re gone for more than a few days, consider turning off the main water valve to prevent "while you were out" disasters.
The "No-Run" Rule: Never leave the dishwasher or washing machine running when you leave the house.
Check the Sump Pump: Summer storms hit fast. Give your sump pump a quick test to ensure it’s ready for any downpours.
Outdoor Hoses: Disconnect hoses from spigots to prevent pressure buildup.
The Goal: We want you to come home to memories, not a mess! Happy travels! 🏖️
