Winter Window Preparations

Winter is coming, and you should prepare your home for the beginning of the cold weather. Proper home preparation can save money throughout the winter months and create a more comfortable home through spring. Old, worn-out windows and doors are often the chill-causing culprits, letting warm air escape and allowing cold air to seep inside. Here are a few tips to winterize your windows and doors against the impending winds:

• Check weatherstripping around windows and doors for any leaks that could lead to heat loss.
• Examine frames around your windows and doors for signs of decay or rot. If any frames are rotting, consider replacing the windows.
• Inspect windows and doors for any cracks, gaps, or even broken glass. Replace the windows and doors if necessary.
