As the cool temperatures return, you’re trying to do everything you can to make sure your Clearwater home retains the warm air brought in by your heating system. You’ve sealed any cracks around your doors, upgraded your home’s attic insulation, and you even installed a programmable thermostat so you can decrease the temperature to conserve energy while you’re away.
Midway Services is here with a couple more simple and affordable ideas to help keep your home warm and cozy this winter, without breaking the bank.
Thermal Curtains – $$
Installing thermal curtains, or even thicker curtains, can help retain a little more warmth inside your home. It’s easy to lose warmth to a window with a very thin curtain, and much easier to lose warmth to a window with no covering. Invest in some thermal curtains this fall to help keep your family warm all winter.
Caulk Window Frames – $
The Department of Energy recommends caulking your window frames and any possible cracks that air could escape from to not only help keep warm air trapped in your home during the winter, but to also help ward off water damage and ensure adequate indoor air quality.
Rugs on Hard Floors – $$$
Are you needing an excuse to redecorate? Here it is: laying rugs on bare floors could help keep your home somewhat warmer during low temperatures, and at minimum helps to make that stroll across the cold wood or tile more bearable. So that pretty chevron number you’ve been pining for at Overstock.com can now be yours guilt-free.
Heating Tune-Up – $
Most important of all is to be confident your heating system is up to the job of keeping your home warm all season long. Be absolutely sure with a heating tune-up from Midway Services. Midway Services now provides fall discounts on heating tune-ups. Call 727-219-2471 to make sure you and your loved ones are warm and cozy throughout the winter.
