Winterize Your Home

Among other things, fall is a great time to clean gutters, stack firewood (away from the house), rake up and dispose of leaves, clean and cover or store patio furniture, get the furnace inspected, repair or replace storm windows, and consider having your home checked for radon. This is also the time of year experts suggest changing the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Here are a few very helpful articles from HousekeepingChannel.com to use in planning your fall chores, both indoors and out:
