While Cyprus enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate, winter months can bring cooler temperatures, especially in the Troodos mountains and inland areas. Proper maintenance during this period is essential to keep your property in optimal condition.
Clean Air Conditioning Filters: Regularly clean or replace the filters in your air conditioning units to ensure efficient heating and maintain good air quality.
Check Immersion Heaters: Inspect your immersion heaters for any signs of wear or malfunction. Ensure they operate efficiently to provide consistent hot water during the colder months.
Minimise Mould: Ventilate your home daily and clean any mould spores with a chlorine or vinegar solution. Maintaining indoor humidity levels around 45% can also help prevent mould growth.
Roofing: Heavy rains and winds are common in winter. Inspect your roof for any loose tiles or cracks that could allow water to enter. Address any issues promptly to prevent water damage.
Heating Systems: Many Cypriot homes rely on space heaters, gas heaters, or split air conditioning units for warmth during the winter. To ensure efficiency, clean and service these systems before the cold weather sets in.
Windows & Doors: Check seals around windows and doors to ensure no cold air enters. Use draught-proofing strips or sealants to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature.
While winter in Cyprus may not be as harsh as in other parts of Europe, attentive maintenance can significantly enhance the longevity and comfort of your property.
