Three Tips to Keep Your Northglenn Home Comfortable During the Winter Months

November 24, 2015

The coldest temperatures in Northglenn will be here for a while. You may be wishing for summer, but you deserve to be just as comfortable throughout winter. Your furnace makes this possible, so keep it running well with routine furnace service.

You count on your furnace to keep you cozy in winter. It’s important to keep it well-tuned with furnace service each year. When you take care of your furnace, it will take care of you and keep you cozy throughout the winter.

If you’ve already scheduled your routine furnace service this year, here are some additional things you can do to be certain your home stays cozy:

  • Have an energy audit — a lot of energy companies will perform an energy audit on your home to help you find areas that can improve. It’s amazing how many areas leak hot or cold air.
  • Weatherstripping — a lot of cold air enters your home through open doors. But did you realize cold air could be sneaking in even when doors are shut? Check your weatherstripping and replace it if it’s worn out or damaged. This simple task could stop a lot of cold air from finding its way inside your home.
  • Recessed lighting — recessed lighting is one of the most common problems. They may permit a lot of warm air to escape through your ceiling. You can repair this problem with a little caulk or aluminum tape.

These tips are a good starting point, but you can find many more tips to help keep your home warm and comfortable.
