Keeping the house warm without a heater: Once the cold winds of winter arrive, keeping your home warm becomes an important task. Most people turn to heaters or other electronic devices, but these not only increase the cost of electricity, but can also affect health and the environment. In such a situation, the question arises – how do we keep the house warm without turning on the heater? In this article, we will tell you some easy, cheap and effective ways through which you can keep your home warm naturally, and that too without much effort and cost. During winter days, when the fog outside freezes the bones and the wind chills the bones, home is the place where a person should find warmth and comfort. But not everyone can afford to run expensive heaters or blowers, as electricity bills and dry air are annoying. In such a situation, there is a need for some original and smart methods that can increase the temperature of the house in a natural way. Not only are these tips budget-friendly, they will also make your home more comfortable.
Sunshine is nothing less than a blessing in winter. Keep windows and balcony doors open from morning until afternoon, so the sun’s heat can enter directly into the room. This natural heat maintains the room temperature better. As soon as the sun begins to set, close the windows and draw the thick curtains so that the heat does not escape.
2. Seal cracks in doors and windows
If there is little space left in the doors and windows, cold air may enter from there. To prevent this, use towels, old clothes, or sealing strips available in the market. If you want, you can also use a silicone-based sealant.
3. Use thick curtains and carpets
In winter, use thick, heavy curtains instead of light curtains. This will not only prevent cold air from entering, but will also maintain heat in the room. Placing carpets or rugs on the floor also reduces the feeling of cold, especially on tiles or marble floors.
4. Don’t let the heat of the kitchen go to waste.
Let the heat released during cooking spread throughout the house. Do not close the kitchen door immediately after using the oven, gas or other appliances. This will create heat in the room and reduce the need for a heater.
5. Get warmth and refreshment from plants
Indoor plants not only keep the air clean but also balance the humidity and temperature of the room. Some special plants such as money plant, aloe vera or snake plant help keep the air stable in winter.
6. Make the bed warm and comfortable
Hot water bottles, fleece covers and thick blankets are very useful on cold nights. Apart from this, placing a heated sheet in bed also maintains warmth.
7. Select soft, warm light
Bright yellow or orange light makes the room warm and cozy. This season, use warm lights instead of white or blue light. Candles can also be used, but be sure to make sure they are safe.
