WINTER IS COMING, HERE’S HOW TO GET YOUR HOME READY
A Perth local shares his tips to keep your home warm and prepared for the winter chill.
As we all know, Perth winters can be cold, wet and miserable. But by taking a few simple steps, you can make sure your home is warm and comfortable all winter long.
Here are a few tips to get your home ready for winter:
- Seal any gaps around windows and doors. Heat can easily escape through even the smallest cracks, so it's important to seal any gaps around windows and doors. You can do this with caulk, weatherstripping, or expanding foam.
- Insulate your home. Insulation helps to trap heat inside your home, so it's a great way to make your home more comfortable in winter. You can insulate your home with fiberglass, cellulose, or spray foam.
- Use a humidifier. Humidifiers add moisture to the air, which can help to keep you warm and prevent dry skin. You can use a humidifier in your home or in individual rooms.
- Close your curtains at night. Curtains can help to keep heat in your home during the winter months. Close your curtains at night to help keep the cold out.
- Use a fireplace or heater. If you have a fireplace or heater, use it to warm up your home. Be sure to keep a fire extinguisher nearby and never leave a fire or heater unattended.
By following these tips, you can make sure your home is warm and comfortable all winter long. So what are you waiting for? Get started today!
