did you caulk or close up the cracks around windows
and doors? Or do a walk throughout your place to find
out where the air in comming in? We found a lot ofareas in our house leaking air, especially comming
from the attic and thr storage room in the basement.
We have to but new windows in the basement storagearea this year. Our electric bill is $191. Gas is
about $252. We burn wood in our fireplace insert.
Wood costs about $140 for a cord which last twomonths. Our phone is $50 because we found a cheap long
distance carrier.
