Home Winterization

Winter is Calgary’s longest season. You can enjoy your winter more with a home that is winterized. Think of it as bundling your home up with a nice warm toque and mitts to keep winter outdoors and the cozy in. EcoLiving Events has a number of resources and events to help you reduce your heating bills and increase your winter happiness!

Winterize your home!

Stop air leaks with caulking and weather stripping, insulate your heated pipes, insulate your hot water tank, install a programmable thermostat, change your furnace filter, and add plastic to your windows is a start. A winterized home is more energy efficient, has lower utility costs and is more comfortable in the cold winter months. Step up to the 2011 Winterization Challenge.
