Today's Energy Thought

With such a mild winter thus far, there hasn't been a huge call for insulating drafty thresholds but the latest arctic blast to hit Minnesota has prompted a need for the return of draft blockers. These are available for purchase in stores and online or if you are feeling crafty, you can make your own. And these are not just for doorways, the insulating tubes can be placed on drafty window sills as well. Below are just a few examples of how to keep the warm air inside and the cold air outside during the winter heating months. Also, keep in mind, a one-eighth inch gap around an exterior door is equivalent to a six inch square hole in the side of your house so block those drafts!
