Winds from tornadoes and thunderstorms damage homes and even businesses in tragically ways. In fact, winds might not even be storm-driven but can still pack awesome force. This is simply because winds are powered by air moving from high atmospheric pressure areas to lower pressure areas.
Wind is uncontrolled and unpredictable, it’s a threat for many businesses. Here are a few preparation tips:
Ensure insurance coverage: It is important to discuss coverage for wind damage with your insurance company in advance of storm season. Many policies cover wind damage, but might have restrictions so it is important to know what is covered and to ask questions.
Prepare property: It is important to make sure that your building is sealed. You will also want to make sure your siding, windows, doors and exterior components are securely fastened.
