With two hurricanes around the corner, maybe it’s time to start preparing. I know that we are all seasoned at going though hurricanes, but it’s best to not wait until the last minute. So, dig up your Hurricane Survival Kit and make sure that you have all of the necessary items you need to make it through this 2009 season.

First and foremost, make sure that you & your family are taken care of. Board up your house if necessary, or go to a shelter. You can find pet friendly hurricane shelters here.

Check your home for any gas or water leaks. Check all windows and doors to be sure that they close properly. Make sure that you have flash lights & batteries in a easy to access location. Always have with you, first aid kit, drinking water, clean clothes, blankets, battery operated radio, emergency cell phone, and food.

A big questions for hurricane season, is how to deal with your air conditioner. I am sure we can all agree that losing air conditioning in Florida is killer. A couple of days before the storm, turn down your AC a couple of degrees to get the house cool. This can help regulate the temperature of you home when & if you lose power. Double check your outdoor unit. Make sure that there are no loose objects or parts. If there is something wrong with your AC, give Promag Energy Group a call today!
