Iced roads, temps in the teens, Texas winter is here! And, that high electrical bill will be in the mail soon. Use this time to evaluate your home. Heaters will struggle to keep your home comfortable but there are many things we can do to keep the heat in and cold out. Check your filters, and check windows, walls, floors and doors for drafts. A simple walk around and you will be able to feel drafts from windows, receptacle plates, floor cracks and door frames. Caulking exterior cracks and foaming exterior holes can go a long way. Attic insulation is another critical factor. We recommend at least 19 inches of blown in fiberglass insulation for a R38 value which translates to lower electric bills. Call us for a heater check and get a free evaluation which includes a thermal scan of your home. You will be surprised how much you can do yourself to cut that electric bill down. We attached some before and after pictures of a project we just completed before this storm hit. Stay safe and warm!
