Shop</a></strong> - Autumn winds have arrived, so now is the perfect time to start preparing your home for the coldest months to come. It is true that the atmosphere cannot be changed, but there are many things to do to reduce or at least prepare for some of the most important winter dangers. Here are some tips: </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Clean the gutters</strong> </h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Remove the leaves as soon as they fall and remove other garbage from your house gutters. If possible, dry the gutters with a hose. This will help drain rainwater and melted ice well. Blocked drains form ice dams where water stagnates and freezes, causing water to leak inside the house. </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Consider alternatives to defrosters</strong> </h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The accumulation of ice on roads, corridors and sidewalks is extremely dangerous, but the use of chemicals in its removal can pose a threat to domestic animals, plants and the environment. Therefore, homeowners must bulldoze their property before it builds up to reduce the need for de-icing materials and make them more effective. </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/content/%D9%86%D8%B5%D8%A7%D8%A6%D8%AD-%D9... for heating the house without costs</a> </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Be prepared for unexpected winter emergencies with additional protection</strong> </h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Untreated or neglected water pipes can freeze in the winter, and may also expand or even explode.Isolate cold water pipes located next to the outer walls or cellars, and make sure you know the location of the main water shut-off valve. </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Adjust your heating system</strong> </h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Annual tuning of the heating system increases efficiency and comfort just as engine tuning improves vehicle performance and increases fuel mileage. When the first bitter cold comes, everyone starts to run central heating, which is the time when many systems collapse after they remain unused throughout the summer. </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Set up a kit for power outages</strong> </h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Finally, be prepared for the inevitable power outages in the winter by creating a complete kit of light bulbs, batteries, generators, etc. The good news is that you can get it now from Jafar Shop! </p>
