SALT LAKE CITY undefined Beautiful fall colors mean changing temperatures and the looming arrival of winter. Get a head start on the shifting seasons by readying your home for less sunlight and more time spent indoors.

Clean light fixtures

Shorter days mean more time spent indoors and lights being on longer. Now is the time to change any burned-out light bulbs and clean the light fixtures. Most light fixtures can be cleaned with a little soapy water. If time is limited, then just dusting your fixtures can help brighten a room. Don’t forget to clean the outside lights; you’ll want to be aware of any future patches of ice.

Clean Carpets: While you enjoyed spending time outside this summer, it’s likely you brought some of the great outdoors inside, where it got embedded in the carpet. Have the carpets cleaned in preparation for all the time you are about to spend inside. If money is an issue, consider cleaning only the room you use most. Or give the place a good vacuuming, completely moving furniture aside to go over the entire room.
