(Undated) – Below-freezing temperatures in the forecast for the weekend should serve as motivation to make sure our homes are ready for winter. It’s important to prepare your home to keep out the cold with insulation, caulking, and weather stripping. It’s also important to take steps to keep pipes from freezing. Experts say you should also gather supplies in case you need to stay home for several days without power including extra batteries for radios and flashlights. Ready.gov also reminds those who are unable to afford heating costs, weatherization, or energy-related home repairs, should contact the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) for help.
