Product Description
★★★★★ This makes a great gift for new homeowners. Here are some things to track in your log book:MonthlyCheck the air conditioning filters and replace if necessary. Many experts will say that filters should be changed monthly, but this is not always necessary. For small families without pets or allergies, they will probably agree to change the filters every 2-3 months. If the filter is dirty, change it; if not, check it again next month. The craftsmen also told me that I should use cheaper filters and change them more often instead of using more expensive filters (you can also get rid of them using a delivery service like Cleaner Filters).Get rid of the kitchen sink. There are many ways to do this, but the most practical and best solution seems to be vinegar ice cubes. Put some vinegar in an ice cube tray and let it freeze, then let the ice cubes slide into the container for disposal. This cools, but as an added bonus, the ice sharpens the blades. You're welcome to join us.Clean the hood filter. If you have never thought about doing this before, you will experience a real "fun" when you remove the filter from the hood for the first time. At home, "do it yourself" simply suggests using a degreaser mixed with hot water from an auto parts store. Let the filter rest for a few minutes, wash it and you're done.Check the fire extinguishers. Suppose you have a fire extinguisher and you know how to use it. This inspection does not require much: make sure it is easily accessible (and not blocked by a dustbin or anything else), that the pressure gauge shows sufficient pressure and that there are no visible signs of wear.QuarterlyTest the smoke and carbon dioxide detectors. Another simple task: your detectors must have a "Test" button. When the alarm sounds, you're ready to go. If not, replace the batteries immediately and repeat the test. If it still does not sound, there may simply be corrosion on the battery clamp and no new batteries will be detected. Clean it and try again. If it still does not work, you will probably need a new detector.Test the automatic garage door reverse function. In 1993, a federal law required all garage doors to have this feature after several children died. Try it every month by putting a 2×4 on the floor where the door closed. It should reverse after a second when the door touches wood. Also try the photoelectric sensors, if you have them, by putting something in front of them (not in front of your body). If the door does not stand up immediately, you have a problem.Let the water run through the unused rooms and flush the toilet. This applies in particular to guest toilets or other sinks/water fountains that are not used regularly. This is to avoid dirt or other deposits. Regular water circulation prevents this from happening.Check the water softener, add salt if necessary. It should not be necessary to add salt every month, but it is better to check it anyway, because it only takes about 5 seconds.120-page Wide Ruled Lined Journal for Home OwnersThis New Home Owner Logbook makes the perfect gift for home owners.
