Michael Petruccelli asks; What are some home maintenance tips for fall?(21)



Michael Petruccelli says;   Attic ventilation

Be sure attic insulation doesn't cover ventilation vents in the eaves to prevent winter ice dams on the roof.

Be sure ridge vents and vents at eaves are free of plants and debris.

Check bird and rodent screens for attic vents to prevent any unwanted guests.
