Luckily, we have yet to experience that this year, however, we have gotten several degrees below zero. Sometimes, your wood-burning stove and electric or propane heaters have a tough time keeping up and your bill to use those goes sky high! So here are some tips to stay warm when it gets unbearable cold.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heavy Curtains<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Heavy curtains will block a lot of the cool air and keep it from hitting you. When it gets cold, even with high-quality windows, you can feel the cold coming off the glass just walking by. Using heavy curtains helps keep this chill from taking over your whole house. Usually, this is something I would do during the night to help it feel warmer. But if you have a really cold day, keep those curtains closed until the sunlight hits the windows.<\/p>\n<p>While some air particles will be able to move through the gaps in a curtain, many of them will encounter resistance \u2013 just like wind blowing against a ship\u2019s sail. Even if the air immediately beside the window cools considerably if it doesn\u2019t have the opportunity to mix with the warm air in the rest of the room, you won\u2019t notice \u2013 and neither will your energy bills.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ready-4c14a37b6308ff60dfe70b4142e22783\" class=\"ready-4c14a37b6308ff60dfe70b4142e22783\">\n<p>\u2026click on the above link to read the rest of the article\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5 Ways To Keep Home Warm During Winter Weather If you live in an area where temperatures dip quickly and often during the winter months, you know how hard it can be to keep your home warm; especially when the outside temperatures drop below zero!
