Are your household systems misunderstood? Many homeowners’ are clueless when it comes to the systems in their home. They view these systems as complicated pieces of equipment only to be understood by a service technician or contractor. This type of thinking can place family members at risk and result in higher repair cost.
Easy Home Basics is an easy-to-use no-skills required manual which explains the basic operations of the electrical, plumbing and heating systems. These systems supply essential services to the home. It’s vital to the health and safety of family members that homeowners’ have at least a basic understanding of each system:
Adjusting the water heater temperature.
Locating the gas meter, water meter and electrical service panel.

Each year family members are injured in household accidents:
The water heater temperature set at an unsafe level may result in scalding.
Electrical shock may occur in the kitchen or bath areas due to the installation of an incorrect receptacle.

Creating a safer home environment can only be achieved through awareness; homeowners’ should be able to educate younger family members about potential dangers in the home.
Household system faults are the #1 cause of most home repairs. A simple mishap can turn into a costly repair if the homeowner is unable to evaluate and respond to the problem in a timely manner, for example:
Locating water shut-off valves that leak can reduce water usage and prevent costly water damage.
A circuit breaker which trips frequently maybe the first sign of a possible electrical problem.
A heater with a dirty air filter can cause the system to work harder reducing the life of the heater and may result in higher energy cost.
