Tips for Winter Weather Preparation

SPARKS, Nev. (775 Times, NV Globe) – To avoid icy conditions, associates at Shelly’s Hardware in Sparks recommend stocking up on snow melt and pouring some out ahead of time. Having a shovel or a snow blower on hand to clear snow off pathways.

“During this winter season I highly recommend ice melt, it keeps you from slipping and falling, I also recommend furnace filters, we also have roof rakes which are great for any type of snow accumulation on your roof, as well as generators in case there’s any power outages or anything like that to keep you warm during those down times,” said Steve Hoffman, Associate at Shelly’s Hardware.

Another tip for cold weather is to get some weather stripping to apply to your windows and doors for energy efficiency when running the heater.
