Foil Cold Weather

Bitter cold weather last year had people scurrying about to make their homes airtight.

This is especially critical with the cost of heating oil increasing.

Last November, I discovered a leak in my house. I was doing some work by my front door and noticed a large amount of cold air coming in through the mail slot! I never noticed it before. I made a temporary cover out of foil and painters tape. I hinged it so I could raise it out of the way when it was time for the mail to be delivered, and then lowered it down again afterwards.
