Simple home maintenance tips for preventing water damage

Did you know that, according to Public Safety Canada, flooding is the most common natural disaster in Canada? It’s also the most costly. There are simple steps you can take to better protect your home when water rises. Here are some tips from the prevention team at Intact Insurance:

Outside your home

It’s all about managing drainage. Any rain that falls on your home needs to be able to flow away freely. Check the grading around your home and make sure that it slopes downward away from your foundation for at least six feet. Your downspouts also need to empty out the same distance away. Otherwise, water can sit against the foundation and weaken

it over time. If it’s safe, clear nearby storm drains of debris, and clean your own eavestroughs regularly.

Inside your home

Indoor flood management comes down to two main things:

• Staying aware: Install flood alarms in your basement, near plumbing pipes or near appliances, and check them regularly to ensure they are in working order. Set up a regular schedule to check your pipes and plumbing fixtures for leaks. One trick is to dry off a set of pipes and put paper towel or printer paper under them for at least 12 hours to check for drips. Make sure to store any valuables in your home, or hazards like oil containers, at least 30 centimetres above the floor.

• Checking your equipment: Consider installing a backwater valve and sump pump if you don’t already have them. Even if you don’t have a basement, floodwater can still accumulate in the crawlspace and damage your foundation. Set up a schedule to clean out your flood drain and backwater valve and test the sump pump twice a year.

By making sure they have the right equipment inside and proper drainage outside, Canadian households can be much better prepared for flooding risk. You can learn more about protecting your home from flood and water damage at keepitintact.ca. ■ — News Canada

This Sun Awareness Month, get smartSPF-

May is Sun Awareness Month, a good reminder that sunscreen isn’t just for beach days. If your kids are outside for recess, walking to school, splashing in the backyard or waiting at the bus stop, their skin is getting UV exposure, even on hazy days. To help separate fact from fiction, here are some sun safety myths parents should know about:

Myth #1: You only need sunscreen on hot days

UV rays can be strong when it’s cool or cloudy, and they bounce off water, sand and even some playground surfaces.

“Kids get UV exposure during everyday outdoor activities, even when it’s cloudy, so sunscreen should be part of their daily routine,” says Dr. Katie Beleznay, a dermatologist and

mom of two. “Using a broad-spectrum sunscreen, SPF 30 or higher, and reapplying at least every two hours and immediately after swimming is important to protect their skin during a day outdoors.”

Myth #2: A little dab of sunscreen is all you need

Most people don’t use nearly enough sunscreen. The recommended amount is 30 millilitres, or the size of a golf ball, to cover your whole

body. It’s important to rub it in well for full coverage. Don’t forget your ears, the back of your neck, tops of your feet and the part line of your hair – even your scalp can burn.

Myth #3: One application lasts all day

Sunscreen wears off with time, especially if you’re active and sweating or you’ve been swimming. Start by applying sunscreen 15 minutes before you head outside and reapply at least every two hours. If you’ve been

sweating or swimming, reapply every 80 minutes. When in doubt, refer to the instructions on your sunscreen bottle.

Sunscreen tips:

• When you’re shopping, there are kid-friendly sunscreen options available, including lotions formulated to be gentle on skin, pediatrician tested, and designed to stay out of the eyes, such as Banana Boat’s Kids Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50+.

• To help remind yourself to use it daily, keep the bottle in a spot you won’t miss.

• Keep a small checklist on the door: hat, water bottle, sunscreen, snack.

• If your child gets dressed in stages, apply sunscreen while they’re still in shorts and a T-shirt – less chasing, fewer missed areas.

Making sunscreen part of the daily routine can help families stay one step ahead of UV exposure. ■

How you can prepare for extreme heat now

The warmer months in Canada can be a relief from our long winters, but they’re not without risk.

Heat waves can happen in late spring when your body isn’t yet used to extreme heat. This can put you at risk for heat illnesses, but you can take steps to keep yourself and your household safer.

Heat illnesses can affect you quickly, and can lead to long-term health problems and even death. That’s why being ready matters. By taking a few simple steps, you can help protect yourself, your family and others in your care.

You can become too hot outdoors or indoors. It’s believed that most heat deaths in Canada occur indoors. Older adults are especially at risk if they don’t have ways to stay cool.

Prepare for the heat before it gets here

Make sure you have access to a cool indoor space. If you have an air conditioner, make sure it works properly before the hot weather starts, and get it fixed if it is not in working condition.

If you don’t have a working air conditioner, know where you can go to get relief from the heat such as a cooling centre, community centre, library or shaded park. Check with your city or municipality to see if they offer relief services during hot weather.

Have a plan

It’s important to have an emergency plan for your home, and to make sure it prepares you for extreme heat.

For instance, you can arrange for regular visits by family members,

neighbours or friends during very hot days in case you need help. Visitors can help identify signs of heat illness that could be missed over the phone.

Stay informed to stay cool

Tune in to local weather forecasts and alerts so you know when to take extra care.

Hot temperatures can be dangerous, especially if you are taking medication or have a health condition. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are at a higher health risk in the heat and follow their recommendations. It’s important to be ready before an extreme heat event starts.
