The recently released 2015 Farmers Almanac uses words like stinging, biting, and wintry to describe the below normal temperatures it forecasts for the Midwest and Northeast this coming winter. Sound familiar? The publication predicted the same bitter cold for last winter and, indeed, those regions of the country experienced one of the coldest and snowiest winters in history! Water pipes froze and burst, homeowners couldnt keep warm in their homes, furnaces consumed excessive amounts of energy by running constantly day and night, and the cost of heating a home skyrocketed!
Pat Pitrone, president of USA Insulation, recommends that homeowners prepare in advance for what is predicted to be another uncommonly cold winter. People can have their furnaces checked by a heating professional, make sure their windows and doors are tightly sealed, but the fact is, your walls and attic make up 80% of your homes exposure to outside air, says Pitrone. If your home is underinsulatedor uninsulated–that likely is a major cause of the issues that occur in extremely cold weather.
