Preparing for Winter

The winter season is steadily approaching, and from house to clothes there are quite a few preparations that need to be taken.

Starting with the houses, a good way to start is to cover your hose bib with an insulator, to insulate pipes to prevent a burst, and to insulate your attic to prevent ice dams.

You can find hose bib installers (here), insulators for pipes (here), and insulators for attics (here).

Next off wardrobe. With it getting colder clothes are assenchal, unless you want frostbite of course. Sweaters, sweatpants, thicker jackets, and wearing layers are a great way to stay warm during the cold months. 

You can find sweaters (Here), sweatpants (Here), jackets (Here), and other warm clothes (Here).

Lastly, making yourself a first aid kit is important for the upcoming winter. In this kit it’s suggested that you pack a standard kit along with additional items for winter injuries like, foil blankets, hand warmers, waterproof bandaids, and light sources to use for if the power goes out.
