In Miami Beach, FL, the weather is starting to get cooler and fall is in the air. With winter quickly approaching, it is not all fun and games if you want to prep your home for the colder months. Use these tips from Assure-Us to make sure your home is ready for winter.

• Get your heater checked. Even though you may not use your heater much in Florida, there may be a cold snap or two. You do not want to turn on your heater just to find out there is an issue and you have to get it repaired. Before you need it this winter, have an electrician come out and perform some maintenance. It is better to have this checked on before it gets cold. While you are at it, you may even want to change your air filters. 
• Clean out your gutters. During the fall, there are lots of leaves that fall to the ground. These leaves can easily get into your gutters and clog them up. Once all of the leaves have fallen, you should clean out your gutters so they can continue to work properly. When they are clogged, you will not have the proper drainage and it can cause some big issues later such as roof problems, leaks, and more. 
• Get a great home insurance policy. The best way to protect you home all year long is with a great insurance policy. If you do not have one already, you should take the time to get one now. A great home insurance policy can protect you from countless things and it is always a good idea to protect your biggest investment.
