what kind of windows? those are always the weak point for air infiltration. if you aren’t doing shrink wrap you should, it makes a huge difference.

u/tehsecretgoldfish you ask a great question. The windows in the house are old. They are wood windows and most of the handles are broken. That is for sure another expense coming.

Frost King window wrap, or the equivalent from Ace Hardware. it’s kind of a fussy process, but it makes a huge difference. you can literally feel cold air rolling off the windows as you put the film up.

This is absolutely huge. We have an old addition on our house that I still need to replace the windows on. The window wrap and draft tape is key to not mowing through all our oil every month.
