Heating expert shares top tip on using radiator valves<\/h3>\n

1. Bubble wrap windows<\/b><\/h3>\n

The heating experts at StovesAreUs said: \u201cIf you\u2019ve had any recent deliveries, don’t throw away that bubble wrap just yet.<\/p>\n

\u201cRepurpose it as a low-cost and surprisingly effective insulator. Simply spray a mist of water on your window, press the bubble wrap against it, and secure it with double-sided tape.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe trapped air bubbles act as an extra layer of insulation, preventing heat from escaping and cold air from entering.\u201d<\/p>\n

2. Funky draught excluders<\/b><\/h3>\n

Although quite an old-fashioned piece of home decor, draught excluders can be very effective at retaining the heat.<\/p>\n

They can easily be made at home filling long socks or tights with scrap fabric, wool, rice or even sand.<\/p>\n

Simply place them along the bottom of doors to block the cold air out and also add a unique touch to interiors.<\/p>\n

3. Close off rooms<\/b><\/h3>\n

The experts explained: \u201cThis may not be the most exciting way to retain heat in your home, but it is great advice.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy closing off rooms you don\u2019t use very often, such as guest bedrooms or hobby rooms, you can focus your energy on rooms that do require heat.<\/p>\n

\u201cEnsure doors to unused rooms are closed, curtains are drawn, and draught excluders are in place to prevent any cold breezes from coming in through them.\u201d<\/p>\n
