  1. 0:35–1:06 Ensure Snow and Ice Removal Readiness From How to Keep Outdoor Stairs Safe in Ice and Snow, Step 5: Implement Snow and Ice Melting Solutions

    Regular snow and ice removal is critical for maintaining safe access to your home, particularly important during a power outage to reach outdoor alternative power sources like generators or propane tanks, and for emergency personnel. Inspect your snow shovels and ice scrapers for damage and replace them if necessary. Ensure your snow blower is in good working condition, has a full fuel tank (and fresh fuel if it's a gas model), and consider having extra fuel stored safely. Stock up on ice melt, sand, gravel, or kitty litter for traction on walkways. When choosing de-icing products, prioritize options that are safe for pets, lawns, and septic systems, especially if they are applicable to your property.
