The Kentridge Senior Living Prepares to Keep the Cold Outside

Just as it is at home, at The Kentridge 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.

Some of the tasks we do to prepare for cold weather and freezing temperatures are winterizing irrigation systems and making sure the ice melt broadcaster is ready to go. Preparation is important. We are trying to avoid burst water lines, and in case our snow removal company is running behind, our broadcaster needs to be ready to go.
