- Check Your HVAC System: Before the summer heat arrives, schedule a professional inspection of your HVAC system. Clean or replace air filters, check for leaks, and ensure your system is running efficiently.
- Focus on Energy Efficiency: Consider upgrading to energy-efficient appliances, installing a programmable thermostat, or adding insulation to improve your home’s energy efficiency and save on utility bills.
