Fall Back
Remember your clocks go back one hour, this Saturday night. This is the one where we GAIN an extra hour.
*Also, remember it’s important to:
- Install fresh batteries — and test — smoke/gas detectors
- Rotate and/or flip your mattresses, for more uniform pressure and related wear
- Change the water filter inside your fridge
- Change the air filter inside your furnace (even more frequently if using humidifiers)
Do you live in a cooler fall / winter climate?
– Turn OFF inside valves for your outdoor spigots (winterize)
– Flip the switch that reverses your ceiling fans to circulate heat (the blades should be turning clockwise in the winter. TIP: use the lowest speed for this … and don’t worry, I’ll remind you to change them back in the Spring)
