With
the start of a new year, it's always a good idea to assess your home and its
needs. Taking stock of appliances, home systems, and other items that make a
house a home will help guide you to home improvements needed, appliances that
may be near the end of their lives, and any other updates that can help to
boost your home's worth. As we close out 2014, the agents and staff at RE/MAX
Lakes Area Realty, will present to you a list of major home systems to
evaluate in the New Year in an effort to bring you peace of mind. Be sure to
check our blog daily for this important list, and remember, the best way to
keep up to date regarding the latest news and information regarding our communities,

Vacuum all Heat Vents
The start of a new year is an excellent time to vacuum all heat vents, especially those that are located on the floor. The vents are overly susceptible to dust, dirt, pet hairs, and other particles that float through the air. Vacuuming heat ducts helps clean your home's HVAC system and can help with any problems brought on by indoor pollutants, mold, pollen or anything else that finds its way into an air duct. Vacuuming has also been known to help with any heating or cooling issues related to clogged air ducts. January is also a good time to check for any leaks in your home's forced air heat ducts. If any are found, seal the leaks with duct tape.
