Spring opening

The days are definitely getting longer and with that comes less reliance on electric lights in your home for extended hours. Opening window blinds and curtains to let the natural sunlight in will help you reduce your electric bill during these pleasant spring days. Opening windows to freshen the house also cuts down on your cooling bill and sometimes even your heating bill.

If your house cools down a lot at night and is well insulated, then warming it up a bit in the morning may just be a matter of opening the windows and letting the warmer air in.

After being shut up all winter, the house needs a good airing out anyway. Unless you have terrible spring allergies and must have your home climate control running at all times, letting the spring air in will work wonders for your home's freshness levels. It will also work wonders for your own sense of well-being. There's something emotionally and spiritually refreshing about spring breezes blowing through open windows that's hard to explain.
