‘I’m a home expert – my 10 hacks will keep you warm as temperatures drop’

London: If you’re trying to stay warm without blasting the heating, a home expert has some quick tips for you. With temperatures in the UK dipping close to freezing, it’s time to get cozy.

Putting on an extra jumper is a start, but you might need more to really feel warm. TikTok user @thatpropertyguy shared ten hacks that take just about 30 seconds each to implement.

First off, he suggests bleeding your radiators to help them work better. You can also use reflector foil to bounce heat back into the room. This little trick can make a big difference!

According to You Repair, bleeding your radiators helps get rid of trapped air, which can stop them from heating up properly. So, it’s worth doing regularly.

Next, he emphasizes the importance of using thermostatic valves and automating your thermostat. This way, you won’t waste heat when you don’t need it.

If you’re feeling ambitious, consider installing insulation in your walls, pipes, and loft. It’s a great way to keep the cold out!

He also recommends draught-proofing around windows and doors to stop chilly air from sneaking in. And if you have hard floors, a rug can really help keep your feet warm.

Finally, he suggests turning off your oven after cooking but leaving the door open to let the heat spread through your home. And don’t forget to double up on your socks for that extra warmth!
