When the weather gets colder and the winds gustier, it’s time to winterize your home.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggests:

• Install weather stripping, insulation and storm windows.
• Insulate water lines that run along exterior walls.
• Clean out gutters and repair roof leaks.
• Have heating systems inspected by a professional.
• Inspect and clean fireplaces and chimneys.
