Tips for preparing your home for colder weather
October 27, 2017
This year marks my first year in a house (as an adult, that is), meaning that when I step outside I find the outdoors rather than an apartment hallway. It’s also that time of the year when the energy bill starts creeping up. I want my home to be in the best possible shape in preparation for these colder months to both save me from future problems (from our very unpredictable weather!) and seal the heat inside.
Here are a few of the steps I’ll be following in order be successful:
1. Inspect your home thoroughly
Check for drafty windows
Check for cracks or blisters in the paint’s exterior surface
Check for worn out seals and strips on the windows and doors
2. Replace old windows
