Be Prepared For an Emergency

Image
As I watch the devastating effects of Hurricane Sandy, I am reminded of the necessity of a Home Emergency Kit.  Although, this disaster does not affect us immediately, it wasn't so long ago when our friends in Southwest Missouri were struck unexpectedly.  The devastation was overwhelming.   Don't wait until it's too late - you can prepare you family for an emergency situation now.  Don't know what to pack?  The Fran Campbell Team thought this list provided by www.ready.gov  was a great resource to help you prepare a home emergency/disaster kit.

Here are a few tips to help you winterize your home. Clean Gutters - Make sure your gutters are free of debris. Clogged gutters can cause backed up water to freeze and seep into the home.  Check your downspouts to ensure that they are facing away from your home and spill the water 10 feet from the house.  Seal Leaks - Most windows, door frames and electrical outlets will leak cold air into your home.  You can easily avoid this by sealing them with caulk or tacky rope - be sure to use a water-resistant caulk for the exterior of your home.
