Keep the Heat Inside

Insulating and preventing drafts are two major ways to keep the heat inside your home. Here are some other options for weatherizing your home:

• Caulk all openings around doors and windows.
• Install switch plate gaskets.
• Install a flap that closes over outdoor dryer vents.
• Add more insulation to the attic.
• Insulate the floor above crawl space.
• Make sure the fireplace damper is closed to prevent unwanted airflow.
• Install storm windows over single pane windows.
• Add weatherstripping to the top and sides of all doors.
