Are You Ready for Winter?
December is one of our favorite months of the year! We often associate this season with sharing, giving and being with friends and family. It’s often easy to overlook your home’s needs with so much going on. Here is a simple checklist of items that can save you money through the winter:
- Check for leaks and drafts around the house. Replace weather stripping and re-caulk around doors and windows. Drafty doors and windows will cool off the house and cost you money in heating bills.
- Inspect your attic’s insulation. Heat rises so adding good insulation can keep the heat from escaping.
- Check your heating system. Sometimes something as easy as replacing your filter or having simple maintenance done can save on heating costs.
- Consider changing from standard light bulbs to energy saving bulbs. Winter uses a lot of your electricity so even saving a little here and there will help.
Enjoy the holidays!
