Keep Your Home Warm Without Blasting the Heat

October 24, 2016

As the cold temperatures arrive, you’re trying to do everything you know of to make sure your Charlotte home keeps the warm air brought in by your heating system. You’ve prevented leaks by adding sealant around your doors, upgraded your home’s attic insulation, and you even purchased a programmable thermostat so you can decrease the temperature to avoid wasting energy while you’re out of the home.

Komfort Air Service Experts is here with some more simple and affordable tips to help keep your family warm and comfy this winter, without breaking the bank.

Thermal Curtains - $$

Adding thermal curtains, or even thicker curtains, can help keep a little more heat inside your home. It’s not hard to lose heat to a window with a very lightweight curtain, and much easier to lose warm air to a completely bare window. Invest in some thermal curtains this season to help keep yourself warm all winter.

Caulk Window Frames - $

The Department of Energy recommends caulking your window frames and any feasible cracks that air could leak from to not only help keep hot air trapped in your home during the cold, but to also help ward off water damage and ensure adequate indoor air quality.

Rugs on Hard Floors - $$$

Have you been looking for an excuse to redecorate? Here it is: laying rugs on your floors could help your home stay somewhat warmer during cold temperatures, and at the very least helps to make that path across the cold wood or tile less miserable. So that pretty chevron piece you’ve had your eye on at Overstock.com can now be yours without the guilt.

Komfort Air now gives fall discounts on heating tune-ups. Call 704-705-8135 to be confident you and your home are warm and comfy throughout the winter.
