Saving Draft Stoppers Over the
past couple of years, heating bills have risen all across the country. Do the math
and see just how much. Then see how one small investment and save big time on
your next bills. Energy Calculations 1) Consider
that between 2004 – 2005 the average cost of heating bills per household during
the winter was $786 for all principal heating methods; i.e. heating oil,
natural gas, electricity and propane. 2) Only one
year later, the average cost of heating bills per household during the winter
(2005-2006) was anticipated to be $1,044
across all principal heating methods; i.e. heating oil, natural gas,
electricity and propane.* 3)
Heat-loss through drafty windows can accounts for 10 to 25 percent of your home
heating bill. Good storm windows can cost you between $800 to $1,000 or more
apiece, including some for your basement** It’s no
secret that with the rise in gas prices and other energy resources, homeowners
are often looking for ways on how to lower their gas and electric bills. During
the cold winter nights, it is quite common to turn up the heat, but when your
home is filled with weak window seals and drafty doors, you wind up paying more
in the long run. The same is true for the summer season, as air-conditioning
helps ease the discomfort of a humid afternoon, but is less effective when
precious energy and resources are wasted when they escape through cracks in
window seals. However
today, air leaks in the home are one of the largest sources of heating and
cooling loss, which causes higher energy bills. These leaks take place when
small cracks develop about windows, doors and pipes. While many choose to caulk
and use weather stripping in their homes, there is a much more economical way
to approach this common household problem. Savings with the Draft
Stopper In order to
increase the efficiency of windows and doors, the Draft Stopper was designed
with saving money and energy in mind. A door or window stopper helps put an end
to unnecessary heating costs during cold nights and wasted air conditioning
during a hot summer day. And it’s the tough construction of the Draft Stopper
that accommodates a wide range of locations about the home. A stopper
easily fits along a garage door, which effectively prevents cold drafts.
(Windows and room doors are not the only parts of the house that benefit from
the use of a Draft Stopper.) The material used to make the Draft Stopper is
quite durable and strong, as the tubular nylon exterior is filled with
polypropylene, which ensures flexibility. Simply push
the stopper close to window seals and doors, which immediately translates into
a more comfortable, year-round environment. It’s that easy. Overall,
the Draft Stopper is quite difficult to wear out and is so strong – cars may
roll over the stopper on a daily basis. On rainy days or high levels of window
precipitation, the Draft Stopper is able to get wet and easily air-dry.
Homeowners may also use the stopper to seal off basement and attic doors, as
well as close off unoccupied rooms to further save money. When you
are ready to begin the money-saving advantages associated with the Draft
Stopper, you will find that the more you purchase at one time – the more you
save. When purchasing two stoppers, you may pay about $12.99. An order of four
stoppers will cost around $19.99, while the more zealous homeowner may want to
place a larger order for 10 stoppers at the price of $29.99. Learn more
