What’s inside

  • Winter: alarms, radon, furnace filter, humidity, ice and snow, and a power-outage kit
  • Spring: sump pump, eavestroughs, foundation, steps and decks
  • Summer: basement dampness, dryer vent, garage door and a roof check
  • Fall: hoses and taps, furnace service, weatherstripping and backup power

Each task says what to do and how often, and the pages link to our guides when you need to pick up a new alarm, filter or pump.

Where the tasks come from

Every task comes from published guidance: Health Canada, the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation’s home maintenance schedule, the Government of Canada’s Get Prepared pages, and the City of Edmonton.

Quick answers

Is it really free?

Yes. There’s nothing to buy.

Can I print it?

Yes. It’s set up for letter-size paper, and every task has a tick box.

Will it suit my home?

The tasks suit most homes across the country. Timing varies by region, so treat each page as a guide, not a deadline.
