Water in your home or yard can be a drowning risk. It can also cause other hazards, such as slippery floors or burns from scalding temperatures. Practicing water safety tips can help ensure your home is a safe environment.
Water spills from the tub or sink can make the floor in the area slippery. This can lead to falls and serious injuries, including head injuries. Mop or wipe up water right away to prevent this from occurring. Consider placing a mat near tubs and sinks to catch any water spills and stop them from reaching bare floors.
Scalding water can lead to severe burns. Decrease the temperature on your water heater so it's below 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Even after lowering the temperature, check the water to make sure it isn't too hot before bathing or using it for other household chores.
If your local authorities notify residents to boil water, always follow these orders. These notices are given when local water sources may contain hazardous microbes. Continue using boiled water until you're told that it's safe to use your regular water.
Ted draws energy and joy from building synergetic relationships with his Clients. Ted's nature is graciously gregarious and persevering; he's honest; and he's been dedicated to a substantial list of clientele throughout his 25 years in the hospitality business and almost two years as a REALTOR. His passion is creating a sincere, successful relationship with people.
Ted grew up in a family of Realtors in central Indiana, earned a degree in economics and philosophy from the University of Notre Dame, and jumped into all aspects of the restaurant business. His ensuing hospitality career path eventually led him into the Event Management Sales & Service role in hotels and quickly guided him to Los Angeles, San Francisco, and finally to a luxury resort in the Napa Valley, where he, his husband, and their dog have resided for almost a decade now.
The irony is not lost on Ted that his ‘growth’ journey has culminated in“living happily ever after” in an agricultural area with a small-town feel and sense of community strikingly reminiscent of his youth…and as a REALTOR nonetheless!
