Most home owners don’t realize that the small draft from the windows can waste your energy in winter and summer. Even the new windows that are insulated well still can let cold draft in during the coldest winter months. If you live in the Northeast, the temperature drops below freezing at night and it can add to the heating bill. So this winter you can try all measures to prevent heating loss. Buy those clear film window protectors and install them on each of your window. It’s easy to install them, all you need is a pair of scissors and a hair dryer.
They don’t block the Sunlight and prevent the cold draft from getting in. Replace your summer drapes or curtains to heavy ones will also help. Be sure to let Sunlight in when you leave for work in the morning. Open the blinds and curtains. Sometimes it’s hard if you both work since the time that you leave the house will usually still be dark outside. But if you know it’s going to be a Sunny day, open the blinds. That’s why the clear window insulation films work well since they’re clear. If you use the hairdryer which gets rid of the wrinkles, your guests won’t even notice there’s a plastic film on the window. Try that this winter and see how much you can save. When it comes to winterize, little things do add up.
