A seasonal home maintenance plan that fits your equipment
Plan air filter changes, water heater service, outdoor plumbing preparation, gutter cleaning and garage door maintenance.
When to replace an air filter
Use the filter and HVAC manufacturer's guidance as your starting point. Filter type, usage, pets and air quality can change the appropriate interval. Record the filter specification and last replacement so the next task has context.
When to flush a water heater
Check the instructions for your water heater and its service history. Equipment type, water conditions and previous maintenance affect the right approach. Ask a qualified plumber to assess the unit; avoid treating a generic calendar interval as instructions to perform the work yourself.
Prepare for changing seasons
Plan to winterize outdoor plumbing before freezing conditions where relevant, following equipment instructions or professional advice. Add a gutter cleaning reminder based on debris and weather, and track garage door maintenance using the manufacturer's guidance. Store the resulting service records with the property.
