Air Conditioners – It is time to test the air conditioner and ensure it is in proper working order. When turning on the air conditioner, first switch the thermostat to the OFF position. Move the temperature switch to the desired temperature position, and then switch the thermostat to Cool. Remember to leave the fan set in the AUTO position. Please don’t wait until the last minute to test your air conditioner to see if it cools properly.

Hurricane Preparedness – Hurricane
Before the storm strikes is the time to plan for the consequences. Below is some information to help you prepare for a hurricane.
- Fill bathtub, sinks, or containers with water.
- Have flashlights, batteries, battery - operated radio on hand.
- Put important papers in plastic bags or container and seal them well.
- If you are on medication, check to ensure you will have enough on hand to weather the
storm and the aftermath.
- If the storm hits, stay away from the windows.
- Have can food items on hand. Be sure to have a manual can opener.
- If the power goes out, turn off your air conditioner and keep your refrigerator and freezer doors closed. Keeping them closed may help you save your food. You may also want to buy a few bags of charcoal because if there is no power your stove will not work and you may want to cook a hot meal.
- Lastly and most importantly, have a full tank of gas in your car in case you must leave the
area.
