Drapes

• Keep drapes open on windows facing the sun in the daytime, but close all drapes at night.
• Keeping shades and drapes closed will reduce chill from cold windows, lessen drafts, and reduce costs.

Storm Doors

• Close storm doors as well as your regular door. You need both to cut energy costs.
• Seal air leaks by caulking and weather-stripping doors. That keeps heat in - and heating costs down.

Storm Windows

Install them! They pay for themselves by keeping cold air out.

Windows

• Repair broken windows. Even a small crack drives up fuel bills.
• For a loose window, use caulk. Tightening loose panes cuts the cold coming into the house.
