Keep Your Home Warm Without Blasting the Heat
As the cool temperatures return, you’re trying to do everything you can to make sure your Columbus home retains the warm air brought in by your heating equipment. You’ve sealed any cracks around your doors, upgraded your home’s attic insulation, and you even purchased a programmable thermostat so you can lower the temperature to conserve energy while you’re away.
Stevenson Service Experts is here with a couple more simple and affordable tips to help keep your home warm and toasty this winter, without breaking the bank.
Thermal Curtains – $$
Adding thermal curtains, or even denser curtains, can help trap a little more warmth inside your home. It’s simple to lose warm air to a window with a very flimsy curtain, and much easier to lose heat to a window with nothing. Get some thermal curtains this year to help keep your family warm all winter.
Caulk Window Frames – $
The Department of Energy suggests caulking your window frames and any possible cracks that air could get out from to not only help keep hot air trapped in your home during the winter, but to also help prevent water damage and establish adequate indoor air quality.
Rugs on Hard Floors – $$$
Have you been looking for an excuse to redecorate? We’ve got it: laying rugs on your floors could help with your home staying somewhat warmer during low temperatures, and at least would help to make that stroll across the cold wood or tile less miserable. So that adorable chevron piece you’ve been eyeing at Overstock.com can now be yours sans guilt.
Heating Tune-Up – $
Most critical of all is to be certain your furnace is up to the mission of keeping your family warm all season long. Be absolutely sure with a furnace tune-up from Stevenson Service Experts. Stevenson Service Experts now offers fall discounts on furnace tune-ups. Call 614-334-3192 to be confident you and your loved ones are warm and cozy throughout the winter.
