Plumbing and HVAC company is making its rounds this season

Rockville, MD -- (SBWire) -- 12/13/2018 --As temperatures begin to drop, Vito Services is helping homeowners winterize their homes in the tri-state area. With proper planning, homeowners can prevent the need for heating repair in Rockville, MD.

A maintenance inspection should be at the top of any homeowner's to-do list. Furnaces, like any other type of machinery, are prone to wear and tear. A professional inspection ensures that the system is working efficiently and can withstand the harsh conditions that lie ahead. Often, no-heat emergency calls could have been prevented with proper maintenance. Routine inspections prevent minor mechanical problems from spiraling into major, more expensive ones. Vito Services specializes in heating inspections and offers a Service Club for customers to protect both their heating and cooling systems for year-round peace of mind.

Insulating the pipes is another preventive measure. Burst pipes can lead to thousands of dollars in water damage. Insulating helps prevent pipes from freezing and bursting. Homeowners can purchase high-quality insulation and use duct tape to insulate. It's especially important to insulate pipes in unheated areas such as the garage, attic or crawlspace. Vito's trained and experienced plumbers can help homeowners identify vulnerable areas and protect their plumbing for the winter ahead.

Additional ways to winterize the home include:

Changing the HVAC filter on a monthly basis
Switching the ceiling fans to rotate in a clockwise direction
Insulating the attic and other cool areas
Replacing storm doors and windows
Covering drafty windows and doors
