It’s that time of year once again. I am sure that we all have enjoyed the last few months of low SRP or APS bills. Well its getting colder and colder and the heater is running more and more.
Everyone wants to save as much money as they can. One way to save money on your heating & cooling bill is to eliminate any drafting windows or doors. Take the time to inspect your windows for any cracks, fogging and drafts or leaks. Check to see if they are hard to open and close. Look to see if there is any noticeable wear on the inside of the frame. See if the window is loose in any way. On the outside take a look at the caulking around the window to see if its cracking and coming loose or in anyway if poor condition etc.
Like anything else windows don’t last forever and having them replaced offers a few benefits:
The same can be said about the doors in your home. Take the time to inspect your entrance door and patio door. See if there are any drafts. Check to make sure they are still hung properly. Look for any gaps along the frame to be sure the door is actually closed all the way. See if you can move the door at all when it is closed. Inspect the inside of the frame and look for any places the door is rubbing against the door jam. Check the door seal for any wear or signs of aging Check your patio doors and see if they open and close smoothly.
