DIY Weatherization for Energy Savings

Drafty windows and doors drive up heating costs and make indoor spaces less comfortable. With a spare hour and tools from your favorite hardware store, you can tackle these leaks!

  • Install weather stripping around doors and windows to create a tight seal that blocks cold air from entering.

  • Use caulk to fill any gaps or cracks in window frames, ensuring that no sneaky drafts creep in.

  • Add door sweeps to the bottoms of exterior doors or to doors that connect to unheated spaces (garages, stairwells, or warehouses).

These simple yet effective measures help maintain consistent indoor temperatures, reduce energy waste, and enhance the overall comfort of your workspace or business.
