A Few Notes on Summer Heat.

5/1/2017

As we leave the cool breezes and rain of Spring behind it is important to see what changes you may need to bring to your property in preparation for hot Summer days. First of these concerns is your water usage. If you've dialed back your timers for any outdoor sprinklers now is that time to reassess both the legal and desired amount of days/times you would like to water your property. Although we did have significant and much needed rainfall in early 2016 the California Drought watering bans have yet to be formally lifted. As such, it is important to take into consideration both the needs of your foliage as well as the schedules for watering that may be allotted to you by your City. If your property has Air Conditioning amenities it is a great time to schedule inspections of all A/C units in preparation for a surge in usage. Small, proactive changes such as filter replacement, proper cleaning of air vents, and refilling of Freon can bring a significant decrease in tenant maintenance calls and complaints. They can also help maintenance crews get a closer look and determine if any larger repairs may be needed in the foreseeable future. Checking for ventilation leaks can also be integral in helping maintain an efficiently cooled area- inspect all windows to ensure that they are properly sealed and double check the strength and status of your home insulation. For homes that do not have an Air Conditioner amenity you may want to ask tenants to take a look at all screens and screen doors for any rips/tears. Those minor openings can be the perfect route for pests including ants and roaches to make their way into a home and should be addressed before the Summer heat hits

Small preliminary checks such as these can be crucial to helping maintain a budget for your property and eliminate unnecessary, potentially costly maintenance requests in the future. Contact us today for more ways we can help you take important steps to protect your property today!
