Where the old way and the tested way agree, Papaw tells you the old way. Where they don't, the tested way wins.
Big print and plain words, on a phone or on paper.
From the CDC, the Department of Energy, FEMA, Ready.gov and the fire service.

Print the 6 cut-out pages at home or at any print shop, and tape them where they belong.
Every job, outside and inside, with a box to tick.
The water shut-off, the breaker box and every number you'd need in a hurry.
For inside the sink cabinet: what to do before bed when it's going to freeze hard.
Write it down this year, and next fall you'll know where you stand.
Fall is a short season for getting ready and a long winter for finding out whether you did. Nobody wants to make the January phone call: the burst pipe, the mouse in the flour, the stove that won't draw, the cold night with no lights.
So I wrote down the getting-ready part, in the order I'd do it, with the tested numbers next to the old ways. Where they agree, I tell you the old way. Where they don't, the tested way wins.

How far the woodpile goes from the house, how to clean up after mice, how warm to keep a house you're leaving, how far a generator goes from the window: every number in this guide is checked against the CDC, the U.S. Department of Energy, Ready.gov, FEMA, the U.S. Fire Administration and the National Fire Protection Association.
Gas lines, wiring, furnaces and chimney repairs are work for a licensed professional. The guide tells you when to make that call. Old Ways Press isn't connected to any of these agencies; we just follow what they publish.
No. It's a PDF you download, and nothing comes in the mail. It opens on your phone, tablet or computer, and you can print it at home or at any print shop.
You don't need to be. After you pay, a button shows up on the screen and the guide opens like a photo. No account, no password. If it won't open, send us a note and we'll walk you through it.
It's written for an ordinary house in a place that freezes: a farmhouse, a town house, a trailer, with or without a woodstove. Skip the firewood chapter if you don't burn wood.
You have 30 days. Send us a note to help@oldwayspress.com, and we refund your $9. You keep the guide.
