Clean Your Dishwasher Drain
Some dishwashers offer a self-clean feature, and that can be extremely helpful. You should use it periodically, but that isn’t enough. Find the filter at the bottom of the machine and manually clean it. That way, your water flows and stays fresh.
Trim Loose Tree Branches
When you hear that a potentially severe storm is on the way, check your property before it arrives. Find any branches that could break during high winds, trimming them down ahead of time. This can save you a lot of money and reduce your risk of filing a home insurance claim.
