Prep work for winter safety

By Sallie Ross-Filgo

Now that the autumn months are upon us, it’s a good time to locate and label, or visu-ally indicate, where your water and gas shut-off valves are.

Do this both inside and outside of your home.

Then, when the snow flies again, and the possibility of frozen and buried pipes oc-curs, we will be able to quickly minimize any damage to your property.

Thanks for helping us serve you better.
