Never pour used cooking oil down the sink or toilet! It solidifies in water, leading to nasty clogs in your pipes. If it makes it to the sewer, it can cause major blockages, resulting in costly repairs—think thousands of dollars! ?? Instead, consider proper disposal methods for your cooking oil. Your pipes (and wallet) will thank you! ?? #CookingOil #DrainSafety #EcoFriendlyDisposal #PuroTips

Cracks in your foundation or basement walls can let water seep into your home, especially during heavy rains or when the water table rises. To protect your home, seal any cracks, ensure proper grading around your home to direct water away, and consider installing a sump pump to handle excess water.

Electrical fires can be distinct! ???? That harsh, chemical smell of burning plastic or rubber? It's a major red flag—your wiring insulation is burning, and the fire could spread quickly.

A warm, cozy electric blanket is perfect for winter, but it can also be a fire hazard if not used properly! ?? Keep your pets off and avoid piling extra blankets on top to prevent heat buildup.

Prevent frozen pipes this winter! ?? Knowing where your water shut-off valve is can prevent disaster if pipes break during cold weather. Also, be sure to disconnect hoses from outdoor faucets and drain them. Remember to insulate pipes in unheated areas like attics and basements and start building your emergency water supply in case of interruptions. #FrozenPipes #WinterPrep #PlumbingTips #PuroTips

Bubbling paint can indicate excess moisture due to water droplets, high humidity, leaks, or plumbing issues.

Keep an eye out and address any bubbling to protect your walls and home! ?? #HomeMaintenance #PaintBubbling #WaterDamage #PuroTips
