Here in Utah, winters can do get very cold. We don’t always have snow, but the air is always freezing. We want to take care of our house in the winter and protect it from the elements and keep our furnace running as smooth as possible so we can have warm clean air. There are many different things you can do when it comes to winterizing your home, I wanted to share with you my essential top 5 and I would love to hear what you do as well. With the colder weather we are spending more time indoors than out, and we want to make sure that the air we are breathing from our furnace is filtered so we trust Filtrete Ultimate Allergen Healthy Living Filters. Our 7 year old has asthma, and this filter helps promote a Healthy Home by reducing Airborne dust, allergens, and Bacteria and Viruses.
5 tips for Winterizing your home
- Drain your sprinklers and wrap any pipes that have a freezing potential.
- Cover your windows with Window Insulator Kits to keep the cold air out and the warm air in.
- Caulk cracks and gaps around your doors and windows to prevent air coming in (or going out).
- Changing our air filters every 90 days so that the furnace can run more efficiently.
- Change the direction on your ceiling fans so they are pushing the warm air down.

Hey there! Thank you very much for sharing these tips on how to keep a home warm and comfortable. Additionally, I would like to suggest the use of rugs and carpets. This way, you kill two birds with one stone. First, carpets can greatly enhance the coziness of your home. Second, they provide an extra layer of insulation, which is particularly useful for wooden floors. Wooden floors often have small holes and cracks through which heat can escape, and carpets can help mitigate this issue.
