As the cool temperatures move in, you’re trying to do everything you can to make sure your Saint Charles home keeps 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 out of the home.
Golden Seal Service Experts is here with a few more simple and affordable recommendations to help keep your home warm and cozy this winter, without breaking the bank.
Thermal Curtains – $$
Installing thermal curtains, or even thicker curtains, can help trap a little more heat inside your home. It’s easy to lose heat to a window with a very thin curtain, and much easier to lose heat to a completely bare window. Get some thermal curtains this fall to help keep your family warm all winter.
Caulk Window Frames – $
The Department of Energy recommends caulking your window frames and any possible cracks that air could escape from to not only help keep warm air trapped in your home during the winter, but to also help ward off water damage and ensure adequate indoor air quality.
Rugs on Hard Floors – $$$
Are you needing an excuse to redecorate? We have it: laying rugs on bare floors could help keep your home somewhat warmer during cold temperatures, and at minimum helps to make that path across the cold wood or tile more bearable. So that pretty chevron number you’ve been eyeing at Overstock.com can now be yours guilt-free.
Heating Tune-Up – $
Most critical of all is to be sure your heating system is up to the task of keeping your home warm all cold-weather long. Be 100% sure with a Precision tune-up from Golden Seal Service Experts. Golden Seal Service Experts now offers fall discounts on heating tune-ups. Call 630-246-2698 to make sure you and your home are warm and cozy throughout the season.
