Windows are a wonderful way to welcome the outdoors into your home. Unfortunately, a poorly maintained window can also be a way for your home to leak into the outside world, specifically the much-desired heat from your furnace.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re looking to keep your home as hot or cold as your thermostat indicates, here are just a few tips you can use to weatherproof your windows.<\/p>\n
When it comes to sealing your windows and limiting heat loss, weatherstripping<\/a> may be the first option for crafty homeowners, but it\u2019s also one of the best.<\/p>\n Different types of weatherstripping exist for homeowners<\/a>, including compression, v-type, and foam. Generally, compression weatherstripping is the most durable option but requires robust cutting tools to implement. On the other hand, foam strips can be cut with scissors but do not last nearly as long.<\/p>\n Ultimately, the weatherstripping best suited for your house depends on how much effort you are willing to put in.<\/p>\n Everybody knows that putting a hand to your window in the winter will give you a good chill and have you running over to the furnace, but that doesn\u2019t mean your windowpane has to stay like that forever.<\/p>\nCover Your Windows in Heat Film<\/h3>\n
