With frigid temperatures outside, it’s important to bundle up and help reduce your impact on the power grid with the following tips:

Lower your thermostat a few degrees and keep warm with sweaters or blankets

Avoid using your washer/dryer or dishwasher during the coldest parts of the day (late night and early morning)

Seal windows and doors with weather stipping

Avoid phantom power loss by unplugging electronic devices when not in use

I took my STEMBoT around to see where I could improve insulation throughout my home:

It’s reasonably comfortable in my home office

The area near my basement windows definitely needs improvement

Of course it’s warmest right next to the heating/cooling vent. That must be why my cat loves hanging out there!
