Insulating A Home For Winter?

Looking for ways to save a few dollars this holiday season? Sure, you can replace inefficient windows to help keep the heat in, but new windows can add up quickly. “A little can go a long way” reigns true when it comes to insulating a home for winter months.

Simply adding window insulating film can help save energy. The plastic shrink film simply sticks to the window frame and blocks heat from exiting your home. Installing cellular blinds or laying curtains are other inexpensive ways to saves energy costs. Replacing your furnace filter, weather stripping around doors, keep vents clean and caulking windows can also help.

Do you have ceiling fans? Put them in reverse. Fans running clockwise blow warm air and can cut costs by 10 percent. If you have extra cash, take advantage of government incentives and install efficient windows and doors, water heaters and update your furnace and heaters. If you take this route, make sure to do your research to help choose the right contractor – look at recommendations and ask your friends and family who they’ve used in the past. It could save you a lot in the end. When all else fails bubble wrap always comes in handy.
