There's no time like the present to take steps to get your home
ready for the winter months here in New York City. Check out the
latest video on Winterizing
Your Home from our DOB Docs
series. We'll provide tips on ways to prepare your home

Topics include:

Heat Retention

Fire Hazards

Heating Systems and Chimney Maintenance*

Safety and Sustainability

*Chimneys supporting gas and/or oil heating appliances can
become blocked and cause flue gasses to be backed up into the
living space. Flue gasses are hazardous to occupants and can
lead to carbon monoxide poisoning. DOB strongly recommends that building owners perform annual
inspections of the clean out at the base of chimneys that
support fuel-fired heating appliances.
