You have smoke detectors. Your doors have good locks. The bathtub has a slip free pad. By all accounts, your home is a safe and secure place for your family to live.


However, there are some hazards that many homeowners don't consider or even know about.


For instance:

  1. Blocked eavestrouphs. Eavestroughs clogged with leaves and other debris can cause rainwater to overflow next to your foundation and create a leak.

  2. Clogged dryer vents. High temperature air combined with link is an ideal condition for a fire. Check and clear the dryer vent at least once a year.

  3. Dirty faucet heads. Kitchen and bath faucets often have build-in screens to spray the water evenly. Unfortunately, dirt and other contaminates can build up on these and possibly affect the quality of the water. Clean faucet heads regularly.

  4. Tripping hazards. You could step around a loose section of carpet for years and then one day, in a moment of distraction, trip over it and fall. When you see a potential tripping hazard in your home, don't ignore it. Fix it.


Being diligent about home safety takes a little bit of time. But, if it prevents one injury or illness, it's worth the effort.
