How to Prepare for Winter Maintenance
Top up Your Attic Insulation
If too much heat escapes through your attic, it can cause snow on your roof to repeatedly melt and refreeze, creating a thick ice dam that can cause serious damage. The solution is to top up your attic insulation. Start by measuring the depth of your insulation using a free Owens Corning ruler from The Home Depot. If the levels are less than 4 inches your attic needs to be topped up.
