Home prep saves on HVAC heating bills
I wish I had gotten to do the Winter prep on the house much sooner.
This is our third Winter as well as I’m just now figuring out how vital it is to prep the home for the cold.
And it’s pretty elementary since it’s all about keeping a very narrow seal around the house. All of us moved up here three years back, and I genuinely had no clue what a real Winter was all about. That first Winter here is still burned in our mind with all the snow as well as ice. It was all I could do to just keep running the heater to stay warm. The third single was better because I thought I was dealing with what I just assumed was just the cost of doing the dealer when it came to heating our home. Thankfully, the pair of us have some good neighbors, then one gentleman genuinely help me understand the vast importance of Winter prep on the house. It makes all the difference when it comes to high heating costs. Three years prior I just wasn’t helping the gas furnace because the home wasn’t prepared. So last summer, I spent an even-handed amount of time making sure it was done respectfully. I started by replacing the old weather stripping as well as putting a modern storm door on the front entrance… Next, I added another layer of insulation to the attic. I spent a couple weekends going over every area of the exterior of our place as well. I filled in every gap or crack I could find… From top to bottom, the home was sealed up tight as a drum. I put the exclamation point on our Winter preparations by having the HVAC professionals come out as well as do the heater maintenance. I am going to save some money this year.
