March Home Health Checklist

Our March Home Health Checklist consists of 24 practical tips to maintain your home in excellent working condition this spring. This checklist covers many essential areas, including climate control systems such as the fireplace, heating systems, and thermostats.

While many Florida homes use the fireplace purely as decoration, ensuring it is in working order is still critical to ensure your safety. Additionally, you might use your heat less during the spring months, and shifting your focus away from heating systems and towards cooling our homes can be tempting. However, it's crucial not to overlook the importance of properly maintaining our heating systems during this transitional season.

Our ultimate aim with these monthly checklists is to help keep your home in tip-top shape while also avoiding costly insurance claims down the road.

Important Home Health Checklist Note:

These checklists help readers understand how their home functions, what to look for to reduce breakdowns, and the insurance claims that often follow. They are visual inspections designed to bring awareness of conditions that may need to be corrected before a breakdown occurs. The actions are generic recommendations and are not designed or intended to replace or supersede manufacturer recommendations; they are general instructions to bring awareness to your home’s health.

Each month, we will publish the checklists recommended to be performed during that month. Click the links below to access the March PDF checklists related to your home.
