Carriage Court Senior Living Prepares to Keep the Cold Outside

Category: Health & Wellness

Author: Tony Cremeans, Regional Plant Operations Coordinator

Just as it is at home, at Carriage Court Senior Living, preparing for winter can be an arduous task. There are several projects that need to be completed in preparation for cold weather and few of them are easy, especially when Jack Frost decides to come a little early, like this year.

Our homes and businesses can be affected by how quickly we can accommodate these tasks. If we move too early, we miss out on some of the creature comforts. If we wait too long, we run the risk of finding issues at the most inconvenient times (like a broken heater on the night the weather unexpectedly dips below freezing).

Preparation is a strong part of the human condition. Whether storing vegetables and meat or cutting firewood, our ancestors have been preparing for winter weather since their beginning. These days, preparing for cold weather is just a little more complex.

The most important tasks in my mind are to clean out all low points in your building and to check the pump house to make sure your heater is functioning properly. The preparation of these tasks will allow no freezing of your pipes in the cold, harsh winter.

The trigger to make sure to start these tasks is when the weather is changing, and the temperature is getting below 32 degrees at night.

No matter how big your house or successful your company, mother nature always seems to creep up on us this time of year. If you get ahead of it and plan for cold weather, you can save big on stress and dollars.
