Winter weather: Renter-friendly ways to prepare for a hard freeze
The article provides tips for renters on how to stay warm during hard freezes without incurring additional costs or risking a security deposit. One way is to manage blinds and curtains strategically, opening them when there is direct sunlight during the day and closing them when the sun goes down to retain heat. Using ceiling fans correctly also helps; running them clockwise helps push warm air down and into the room. Other tips include keeping the doors to heated rooms open if the unit has central heating, or closed if it doesn’t. Renters can also purchase additional items like window film, door sweeps, weather strips, and thermal curtains.
