How a change in risk circumstances can help you reduce premiums

Home Renovations - Making certain changes to your home can improve its risk profile and therefore help lower your premiums. The addition of a drain pump, a non-return valve, a security system, a tankless water heating system, or the conversion of a gas wood fireplace can all get you discounts for your home insurance coverage. Certain renovations, such as retrofitting the heating, wiring or roofing, can have a positive effect on the risk profile of your home and can also lower premiums.
Home Use Changes - Remember to report if your home is occupied by fewer people. This may change your risk assessment and make you eligible for a lower price.
Modifying Your Vehicle - If you have added a security system or are using winter tires on your vehicle, these modifications should be reported to your insurance broker.
Changes in your vehicle use - Remember to report if your vehicle use has changed and your commute to work is shorter or you no longer use your vehicle to commute to work.
Business Activities - If you stop using your home or automobile for business purposes, this constitutes a change in the circumstances of the risk and should be reported to your insurance broker to make the necessary changes to your policy.
Valuable Items - If you have sold or disposed of high value items such as jewelry, artwork, collectibles, all-terrain vehicles, etc., be sure to notify your insurance broker so they can be removed from your insurance policy, if necessary.
