Preparing for a Snowstorm: What You Should Do Before It Hits

If you’re in an area expecting heavy snowfall, a little preparation can go a long way. Snowstorms can impact travel, power, and home safety, so it’s worth taking a few simple steps to stay ahead of it.

Before the Snow Starts

  • Check your supplies
    Make sure you have groceries, medications, pet food, and essentials in case travel becomes difficult.

  • Charge devices
    Fully charge phones, tablets, power banks, and flashlights in case of power outages.

  • Clear drains and vents
    Check that downspouts, floor drains, furnace and dryer vents are clear so melting snow doesn’t cause backups or carbon monoxide issues.

  • Park smart
    Move vehicles away from the street if possible and avoid parking under trees heavy with snow.

  • Set your thermostat wisely
    Keep your home at a steady temperature to prevent frozen pipes.

During the Storm

  • Avoid unnecessary travel
    Snow-covered roads reduce visibility and traction. If you don’t need to be out, stay put. If you do have to drive make sure you have a full tank of gas. 

  • Check on neighbours
    Seniors and anyone living alone may need help with snow removal or supplies.

  • Watch for drifting snow
    Keep an eye on entrances, exits, and vents to make sure they don’t get blocked.

After the Snowfall

  • Shovel safely
    Take breaks, push snow instead of lifting, and watch for signs of overexertion.

  • Clear vents again
    Make sure furnace, dryer, and gas appliance vents are free of snow before restarting normal routines.

  • Check your sump pump
    If a thaw follows, melting snow can lead to water issues quickly.

A Quick Reminder

Snowstorms are unpredictable. Staying home when possible and preparing in advance helps keep you, your family, and first responders safe.

Stay warm, stay safe, and take it slow today.

Landlords: New CO Alarm Rules Are Now in Effect

As of January 1, 2026, Ontario’s Fire Code requires updated carbon monoxide (CO) alarm placement in rental properties. If your rental unit has fuel-burning appliances or an attached garage, CO alarms must now be installed on every floor of the unit, not just near bedrooms.

What’s Required in Rentals

CO alarms must be installed:

  • On every storey, including basements

  • Outside all sleeping areas

  • In any unit with an attached garage

Fuel-burning sources include furnaces, water heaters, stoves, fireplaces, and gas dryers.

Landlord Responsibilities

  • Install and maintain all required CO alarms

  • Ensure alarms are CSA or ULC certified for Canada

  • Replace alarms when they expired

  • Address tenant-reported issues promptly

Tenants are responsible for not disabling alarms, but compliance ultimately rests with the landlord.

Why This Matters

Non-compliance can result in:

  • Fire Code violations and fines

  • Increased liability risk

  • Insurance issues

  • Problems during inspections or property sales

If an Alarm Sounds

Tenants should evacuate immediately and call 911 from outside the unit. If you own rental property, now is the time to confirm your units meet the updated Fire Code requirements.
