Our presenter is Anne Thornton, President MSI Plumbing & Remodeling 

Anne knows firsthand that being knowledgeable, prepared, and proactive can make a huge difference in both the severity of a problem and the cost of repairing that problem. She is the founder and president of MSI Plumbing & Remodeling, one of New Jersey's few woman-owned plumbing and remodeling companies. 

Anne has been honored as one of New Jersey's Top 25 Leading Women Entrepreneurs; she is a SmartCEO Brava Award recipient and recently received the first-ever Catalyst Award from the Women's Business Forum of the Hunterdon County Chamber of Commerce.

■ The importance of correct washing machine hoses and ice maker hoses. 

■ How to turn water off in an emergency. 

■ Water heater maintenance. 

■ Septic maintenance. 

Anne will also cover real safety concerns in your home like dryer vent cleaning, garage doors, tripping hazards, and chimney safety.
