Hurricane Preparedness Week 2023 with Eau Gallie Electric

As hurricane season approaches, it’s important to make sure you and your family are prepared for any potential storms. Here at Eau Gallie Electric, we’re dedicated to helping our community stay safe during hurricane season. In honor of National Hurricane Preparedness Week (April 30-May 6, 2023), we want to remind everyone of the importance of being prepared and share some helpful tips.

First and foremost, if you own a generator, it’s essential to have it checked and maintained before the storm hits. Eau Gallie Electric offers professional generator repair and maintenance services to ensure your generator is in top condition when you need it most. Don’t wait until it’s too late – schedule your appointment today!

 

In addition to our generator services, we also offer a free hurricane preparedness booklet that you can download from our website. This booklet contains valuable information on how to prepare for a hurricane, what to do during a storm, and how to stay safe in the aftermath. We encourage everyone to download this booklet and keep it on hand as a reference throughout the season. Click here to download the booklet.

 

To help you get started on your hurricane preparedness checklist, here are some important items to consider:

• Have a plan in place for evacuation, including a designated meeting place and emergency contacts.
• Stock up on non-perishable food and water for at least three days.
• Secure your home by installing storm shutters or boarding up windows and doors.
• Have a supply of flashlights, batteries, and a battery-powered radio on hand.
• Keep important documents in a waterproof and fireproof container.

 

Remember, being prepared is the key to staying safe during hurricane season.
