Key Takeaways Summary

Storm-proofing a Jeddah property requires clearing roof drains and floor traps of accumulated windblown dust, inspecting exterior door seals, and verifying that outdoor AC isolators and socket boxes feature waterproof IP65 silicone seals to prevent short circuits during sudden coastal downpours.

01Roof & Drainage Preparation Tasks

Clear Roof Drain Grates: Remove windblown sand and leaves from roof outlets to prevent rainwater pooling.
Inspect Parapet Wall Seals: Check bituminous waterproofing joints along roof edges.
Test Balcony Floor Drains: Pour buckets of water down drains to verify unobstructed discharge.

02Protecting Outdoor Electrical & AC Equipment

Ensure all outdoor AC disconnect switches are tightly closed and verify that garden lighting cables are properly elevated or conduit-protected.
