Hey everybody! Is everybody hanging in there today? Here at home it is cold, icy and extremely yucky! Right now, the heat is working overtime and trying as hard as it can to keep up, but it is just impossible. If you are looking for AC Repair Oklahoma City, AC Repair here in Kentucky, or AC Repair anywhere for that matter, you probably know how hard it is to find a repairman, especially when the weather is as cold as it is. Most of the heating and repair guys are backed up for days, weeks even! If you have an emergency in the cold right now, chances are, you are gonna have to stand in line!
We have been taking some extra precautions to try to keep things warm and cozy at our home, even though it is so hard when it is this cold. Sometimes you just can't warm it up enough, but at least we can try! I have been spending these extra cold days with the oven on, baking up some delicious brownies, cookies, cakes and bread, and cooking some veggie soup and chili on top of the stove. We bought a couple of extra space heaters and have been using them in the living room and in the boys' room, where it stays the coldest. We bought some of the plastic sheeting window cover stuff to cover up our windows and try to block the drafts. I have some draft guards at the bottom of the doors too, to try to keep as much cold winter wind out of here as I possibly can.
While all of these things help a lot, taking care of our furnace is really what I think is the most important thing to do. We clean the coils of our heater as much as possible, and we change the furnace filter quite often. However, I am always looking for new tips and tricks to help keep our house warm and toasty during the winter months. If you have any extra tips that I haven't talked about today, let me know in the comments so I can start doing them too! Stay warm everybody!
