The winter months will soon be upon us once again. The Building Department would like to remind residents to check the operation of gas furnaces and water heaters. Typically filters may need to be replaced and the unit might require a tune-up for the winter season. An efficient, clean burning furnace can reduce heating bills. Additionally, fireplace flues should be checked for soot buildup.
Chimney fires can result from a large buildup.
As always, call the Building Department, 623-7650, before major remodeling. The Police Department strongly suggests parents supervise children while Trick or Treating in the Village. Make-up is safer than wearing a mask. When a mask is worn, make sure holes in the mask are adequate for vision and ventilation. Bring a flashlight.
