🔧✨ Say Goodbye to Draughty Windows and Doors in Seconds! ✨🔧
Feeling the chill even with the heating on full blast? 🥶 Don’t let draughts spoil your cosy vibe! Here’s a quick, clever fix shared by energy experts to keep your home warm and toasty.
All you need is an Allen key, which you probably have hiding in your toolbox. Many uPVC windows and doors come with hidden adjustment features. Simply tweak the cams with your Allen key to eliminate those pesky cold gaps. 🔧 A quick turn is all it takes to pull the strike plate in, ensuring a snug and tight fit for your window. If it’s too tight, just adjust the cam slightly the other way. Voilà! Draught-free comfort. 😀
Don’t worry if your windows lack this feature. There are other tweaks you can tackle. Use weatherstripping tape, caulk, or specialist kits to seal those gaps and boost your home’s energy efficiency. 🏡
Here are some more awesome insulating tips:
– **Weatherstripping:** Clean the area, then apply adhesive-backed foam, V-strip, or felt tape.
– **Window kits:** Stick plastic film to frames with double-sided tape and use a hairdryer for a snug fit.
– **Adjust uPVC settings:** Use your trusty Allen key to tweak the locking cams for a secure seal.
– **Replace seals:** Swap damaged rubber seals or apply silicone.
– **Fit door sweeps:** Attach strips with brushes or rubber seals to your doors.
– **Letterbox and keyhole:** Install brush-style draught excluders to stop air sneaking in.
Stay warm and save money with these handy, quick fixes that take seconds! Happy adjusting! 🌟🏠
