With winter behind us and summer just around the corner, it's the perfect time to get your home spick and span. Any chores done now are chores that don't need to be done when the sun is shining and the weather is hot!

Have a pool? It better be filled.
Make sure you get water into your pool, or clean it out if it's spent the winter gathering leaves. Salt or chlorine - you're going to want to be taking a dip any time now - if you haven't already!

Don't get caught hurting.
While the cold season has passed, summer are the months of rough and tumble! Make sure you've got a well stocked medicine cabinet - grabbing a first aid kit could save plenty of headaches in the future.

Keep it moving smoothly
You'll be wanting those doors wide open when the heat comes. Give your sliding door tracks a spray of and rag clean, and double check they are all working well. Same goes for the hinges on your other external doors - a little CRC goes a long way.

Bug free summers
There's nothing quite like a wasp or ant infestation as the weather heats up! Give your backyard the once over - check for wasp nests and deal to them early in the summer before your sweet treats start getting attacked. from children.

Staunch the stink
When was the last time you gave your rubbish bins a clean? Grab some washing liquid and warm water and give them a good clean out. Sweet scents and a healthy kitchen will surely follow!

Play it safe
Have you got an area the kids play on alot? Make sure all the equipment is nice and sturdy and cover up any sharp edges. The same goes for your outdoor furniture - make sure it is all repaired and ready to go.

There's nothing like a summer BBQ
With the sun shining you'll be wanting to make the most of the warmth and cook outside. Get your barbeque out, check the gas and give it a good a clean so that when the time comes, all you have to do is throw those snags straight onto the grill!

Get your friendly Butler & Hewitt technician in
It's a great time of the year to give your appliances the once over. Book in with us for some heat pump maintenance to make sure everything is working economically, and remember that Butler & Hewitt can also help with things like replacement washing machine hoses and appliance maintenance.

It's been pretty chilly in Hawke's Bay the last few days - and we're all hoping that with summer coming that some serious Napier and Hastings heat is on the way. Either way it's the perfect time for Panasonic Air Conditioning to announce their new Premier Series Floor Console.
