The summer heat seems to be getting more and more extreme in Georgia and around the globe. This intense heat and sun can cause damage to your home. Being proactive in protecting your home can make a big difference.
Here are a few tips for protecting your home from the summer heat:
Caulk your windows and doors
Properly caulking your windows and doors can help prevent your cool air from escaping and the hot air from outside from coming in.
Plant trees and tall shrubs
Direct sun exposure can cause damage to the exterior of your home over time. You can help to reduce sunlight exposure by planting shade-producing trees and shrubs around your house.
Use proper siding and roofing materials
Choosing siding materials with high UV resistance can help to protect your house. Lighter colors like tan or white help keep the exterior of your home cooler as well. You can also treat roofing materials with special sealants to increase UV resistance and lower heat retention.
