3 Ways to save Energy This Winter

Nov 16, 2012

The fall season is the best time of the year to prepare your home for the upcoming winter months.  Surprisingly, there are a number of ways that you can maintain a comfortable temperature in your home this winter without turning up the heat, and  The Daily Green  offers a few of these winterization tips below:

  • Block unwanted drafts of cool air from entering your home by making your owndraft snake and placing it at the bottom of your door. Upgrading to a high quality vinyl or fiberglass replacement door is the most effective way to stop this type of energy loss.
  • Add extra insulation to your home, and give special attention to your attic floor and basement ceiling.  Currently, the federal government will reimburse homeowners 30% of the insulation cost up to $1500.  Learn more about the insulation services offered by Bordner by visiting our website.
  • You will save between 1 and 3% on your heating bill for every degree that you lower your thermostat, and a programmable thermostat can make this task an easier one to manage.

 

 Bordner  has been a trusted home improvement company in the Kansas City area for more than 20 years, and we would appreciate the opportunity to help you with your next project.  Contact us today to learn about some more winterization solutions for your home.
