Planning ahead for winter:

I know cover plug sockets but with what
And cover the cracks from the doors
How do you reduce the chill when you open the door
How else can we reduce heating costs?
Some of our windows lost their weatherproof seal—does anyone know how much it costs on average to replace a window?

If this is a do it yourself project

Door sweep for bottom of doors - weatherstrips
Thermoplastic rubber weatherseals or other self adhesives for side or top gaps
Plastic shrink window seal kits for windows
If you see cracks and feel wind coming through anywhere you can use a can of spray foam insulation
