Winter-proof your home now to save money this winter.
As households adapt to the gloomier weather that Autumn brings and try to hold off putting the heating on due to rising energy bills, home experts at JD Williams have shared some simple, but effective ways to ‘winter-proof’ your home before the colder temperatures become the norm.
Five ways to winter-proof your home effectively Upgrade your bedding for maximum comfort As temperatures drop, it’s time to switch out your summer bedding for warmer options. Invest in high-tog duvets and brushed cotton sheets for a warmer night’s sleep. Layering blankets can also trap heat more effectively, ensuring you stay warm throughout the night.
If you can’t get your hands on any of the above, rolling up a blanket and placing it at the base of doors can serve as a good temporary draft excluder, helping to keep the cold air at bay. By keeping the heat in the room, this simple DIY task can help you save on your energy bills. How To Reduce Winter Energy Bills Maintain your heating system Ensure that your heating system is running efficiently by scheduling regular maintenance checks. Take some time to make sure that everything is in running order, for example bleed your radiators to help remove trapped air, allowing them to heat more effectively. Additionally, consider installing thermostatic radiator valves to control the temperature in individual rooms, optimising energy use throughout your home.
