Storm Readiness Tips for Town and Country, MO Homeowners

Storms in Missouri can arrive fast and hit hard — especially in areas like Town and Country where trees, terrain, and older homes increase flood risk. From spring downpours to winter ice storms, protecting your home starts with preparation.

At Purisync Heating and Air, we help families across Town and Country reduce their risk of storm-related water damage. Follow these seasonal tips to stay ahead of the weather.

✅ Before the Storm: Prep Your Property

• Clear gutters and downspouts: Prevent roof overflow and foundation pooling
• Check your sump pump: Test operation and install a battery backup system
• Trim nearby trees and branches: Avoid roof and window damage during windstorms
• Seal windows and door frames: Prevent leaks and drafts during heavy rain
• Know your shutoff valves: Review our emergency water shutoff guide

⚠️ During the Storm: Stay Alert

• Keep valuables off the basement floor: Use plastic bins and raised shelving
• Unplug electronics: Prevent surge damage and fire risk
• Watch for signs of intrusion: Water pooling near doors, windows, sump areas

🧼 After the Storm: Act Fast

Even small leaks or pooling can lead to long-term issues. Take these steps after a severe storm:

• Inspect your home for hidden moisture
• Check attics and basements: These areas flood first
• Watch ceilings and drywall: Look for bubbling paint or stains
• Call for water removal if you find any standing water
