Summer is here, and we want to help you enjoy the season while keeping your home comfortable, efficient, and safe. Whether you’re in a house or apartment, here are a few seasonal reminders to help you care for your space this time of year:
1. Keep Your A/C Running Smoothly
To help your air conditioner work its best:
- Replace or clean your air filters regularly.
- Don’t block air vents with furniture or curtains.
- Let us know right away if your unit isn’t cooling properly so we can assist before it becomes a bigger issue.
2. Be Mindful of Energy Use
With longer days and higher temperatures, electric bills can spike. A few tips:
- Use fans when possible.
- Close blinds during the hottest parts of the day.
- Avoid running the oven during peak heat hours.
3. Help Prevent Pest Issues
Warm weather can bring ants, bugs, and more. Keep pests away by:
- Storing food in sealed containers.
- Wiping down counters and sweeping up crumbs.
- Taking out the trash regularly.
- Let us know if you notice any pest problems—we’ll take care of it promptly.
4. Practice Summer Fire Safety
Please keep safety in mind, especially if you enjoy grilling or lighting candles:
- No BBQs or open flames on balconies or patios unless permitted.
- Use battery-operated candles indoors for ambiance without the fire risk.
- Never leave heat sources unattended.
5. Keep Windows and Screens in Good Shape
Let us know if you notice:
- Torn or damaged window screens.
- Windows that don’t open or close properly.
- Drafts or air leaks.
We’ll address these issues to help you stay cool and secure.
6. Report Maintenance Needs Early
If something feels “off,” let us know. It’s always easier (and faster) to fix small issues before they become major ones. We’re just a phone call or portal message away!
We hope you have a great summer and enjoy your home to the fullest. Thank you for being part of the LaBrada Group community!
