5 Easy Ways To Insulate Your WindowsPresented by
Caulk Gun
Start on outside of the window and look for gaps in the joints of the frame, where brick and wood meet, etc. Use caulk to fill in these areas as a sealant. You can find a clear caulk that you can paint over to keep your window looking clean and neat. This project can save you from replacing your windows, keep air from escaping your home, and give you the most bang for your buck!
Draft Snakes
A draft snake is a stop cloth that you can use to seal openings in doors or windows to prevent air from escaping. You can purchase one or can even make one as a DIY project. It’s a simple, cheap way to insulate your windows.
Rubber Weather Sealing
These easy to apply strips are an easy, customizable way to seal up your windows. If you have large windows or ones with a unique shape, then these are a great way to fill every crevice. Cut the strip to fit your window, press firmly, and you’re done!
Window Insulation Film
These films are fairly inexpensive and can be easily applied with some heat and double-sided tape. These have risen in popularity over the past few years. The window insulation film can help seal in the air inside your home and keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
Layered Curtains
Some thick layered curtains are a great way to spice up your interior while also preventing air from escaping out the window. Look for curtains with triple weaved fabric or solid insulated thermal curtains to make sure you’re getting ones to help with insulation.
