1. Doors

 

Use a door sweep. (They run around $4 a door). You’re likely getting a draft under your door even when it’s closed.

2. Caulking

Make sure you caulk holes in the walls that lead to the outside. Even tiny ones can be big energy wasters. New foaming caulking expands and is easier to place.

3. Window Treatments

Get window treatments that put plastic around the windows and tape around the edges. If they balloon up in the breeze you know you need weather stripping around the windows.
