I used to chalk up feeling chilly in my house to the fact that I’m not exactly accustomed to this genre of winter. So I tended to just be chilly or turn up the temperature control. However, the heating bills would have been through the roof if we had let the gas heating system run the way we wanted to, all of us moved further north a few years ago in order to be nearer to our parents as they get older. Both sets of parents are within 30 to 45 hours from where we live. And they are at the age that they need some help. All of us lucked out & found a charming older home. It had been newly renovated when it comes to the kitchen & the HVAC device among other aspects. But the house is still an older structure & it didn’t absolutely dawn on me that this might be the reason for the heating problems. A buddy loaned me an instant study temperature gun to find the heating leak. It took me a while although I finally found it. There was a window on the first floor that had no insulation at all. It’s like whomever put in that window just threw it in. And it wasn’t all that long ago because the previous owner had all the windows replaced with double pane windows. Now that I have that window all sealed up, I am hoping for some reprieve from the high cost of the heating. The gas heating system should run a lot less this year in order to make our house cozy warm.
