Keeping your home cozy this winter is easy with the right smart home gadgets. Here’s a look at some that keep you warm and save you money.
Keeping your home warm and cozy during the winter is a challenge. Homes equipped with a fireplace benefit from a frugal heating option — though there’s no doubt they can be messy and time-consuming to clean. You can also ramp up your furnace, but that’s a quick way to spend a fortune on your heating bill.
Instead, consider using smart home gadgets to save money and keep your house at a nice temperature until spring rolls around. If you need some help getting started, here are a few smart home gadgets that can help you make it through the cold, dark winter.Invest in smart blinds
Thick blinds are a great way to insulate your home from the elements, ensuring none of that cold outdoor air sneaks through any seams in your windows (or sliding doors). Smart blinds (or smart shades, as they’re often called) make it easy to keep your home warm in the winter, as you can automate their performance. Many of them can even be automated to open or close with the sun — enabling them to warm your home during the day and then close without manual input when the sun goes down.
