Home Maintenance Tip of the Week

With cold weather quickly approaching its time to start winterizing some things around your house. Your AC should be covered with a tarp or something that will help keep snow out of it’s interior. You could also buy a custom fit cover that fits over the entire unit. Long exposure to moisture can increase rusting which could wear out your AC faster. Always remember you want a good 3 days of 60+ degree weather before turning the AC back on for the first time!
At Quality Care Home Inspections we provide helpful home maintenance tips like this one along with a complete detailed condition report of your home!

How Radon Enters a House

“What is radon, and should I get a radon test when buying a new home?”

Radon is a cancer-causing radioactive gas. You cannot see, smell or taste radon, but it may be a problem in your home. It is also the second leading cause of lung cancer in the US today. Radon comes from the natural decay of uranium in the soil/bedrock that may be present under our homes. Getting a radon test is a great idea for peace of mind. Especially if you plan on utilizing your basement for things like living spaces, or a nice man cave.
