Winterizing greatly changed the heating costs
I have to say that I’ve never been happier this deep into winter; First, we are genuinely toasty in our home. I mean like sit on the couch in shirt sleeves type of cozy, however that’s never been the case as long as we’ve been here. And that’s squarely on myself and others for not getting after prepping the condo for winter. But this fall, I just got the feeling that this would be a big saver for us if I did our area with the Winter prep. I’d heard that sealing up a condo fantastic and narrow helped with heating costs. I don’t think that I put that much stock into what I heard. But the condo can get kind of loud on the weekends with all the youngsters; So getting out for a few weekends to winterize our apartment seemed rather beautiful. It was genuinely easy because all I had to do was go to the Heating plus Air Conditioning supplier website. I downloaded their Winter prep checklist and just took it step by step. They even had a list of materials that I would need from the apartment improvement store. Essentially, all I did was put a narrow seal on our home. I did substitute both storm doors and added additional weather stripping around the entrances. I also made sure that every gap or crack I could find on the outside of the condo with sealed tight. Finally, I rolled out some additional insulation and that was pretty much that! Here I am in December having saved over 20% on our heating costs so far this winter. But better than the heating savings is the heating in our condo as it’s so undoubtedly warm in here.
