GOD BLESS THE UNHANDYMAN'S GUIDE TO CAULKING AND WEATHERSTRIPPING. * One of the best ways to save money on energy costs is to make improvements on your home that will help you use less energy. " One of the easiest and most worthwhile things you can do is minimize your heating and cooling loss by caulking and weatherstripping. -- If you live in a typical home and install caulking and weatherstripping. you can trim your energy cost for heating by up to $40 per year. You'll recover your investment in two years or less, and after that it's money in the bank. CauHwng and weatherstripping your house requires a minimum of tools, time and know-how. Even not-so-handy\homeowners can easily handle this job. You use caulk to plug air leaks outside and weatherstripping inside to seal the openings around doorways and windows.

Look for gaps in the exterior [ walls where you need caulk. Note any missing or sun dried caulk especially on the south side of your house. Here's where to look: • Around all window and door frames 8 Around exhaust fan outlets (hath, kitchen or laundry) • Around window air conditioners • Around holes cut for hose faucet, wires and pipes • Around the chimney • Around lighting fixtures • Where masonry and siding meet. Caulk is a flexible sealant designed to fill cracks and gaps in fixed joints of a house. One tube will fill about 25 feet of a narrow V%" crack or two small windows. In home centers and hardware stores you'll find a variety of caulks to choose from, but don't let that scare you. Ordinary latex caulk is easy to use and cleanup, and a good bet for the first time user. Silconized caulk is more expensive, but it lasts considerably longer. If you can afford to use a better grade of caulking you won't have to re-do the job every few years. Check the label to see if the caulk can be painted, how long it takes to dry. the type thinner recommended for cleanup and what the temperature requirements are. Don't forget to purchase a caulk gun. unless you purchase caulk that comes in pressurized cans. Caulk guns usually cost only a few dollars^ Hi Clean out the joint thoroughly and let dry. H Cut the tube tip off at a 45 degree angle making a V" opening. H With the tube in the gun, break the seal with a nail. O Place the nozzle in the crack and squeeze the trigger while pushing the tube away from you to fill the gap. HI Fill deep cracks with several beads of caulk. IB Clean up immediately and put a nail in the tube nozzle to save for re-use. Push the tube away from you li ^ w I THE INDOOR SOLUTION Weatherstripping is the best way to stop air leaks. To detect hidden drafts inside, make your own distress flag by taping a piece of tissue to a pencil. On a breezy day use this detector to find air leaks by holding it near window sills and doorways. If the tissue moves. Ml mill II I • i ' : l V : ' you've located a spot ttrat fimis weatherstripping. -- Here's where to look for drafts: • Around all windows and door frames • Space around pulleys in double-hung windows • At electrical wall outlets and switches in exterior walls • Around heating registers. Weatherstripping comes in many forms. For instance there are threshold weatherstripping materials designed to fill the gap between the bottom of a door and floor. For doors and windows, there's spring metal or brass weatherstripping that's inexpensive and effective. Self-adhesive plastic weatherstripping is more expensive but easier to install. As a handy temporary sealer, you can use caulking rope or cord. For electrical outlets and light switches, low cost foam richer gaskets can be used to seal gaps. And. in your garage molded stripping is available to seal your garage door. Installation is easy and you'll find instruc­ tions with each ot these products. Metal weather- stripping is easily cut with a heavy scissors or tin snips. Plastic is cut with a knife or scissors. Before applying adhesive-backed weatherstripping. clean the surface behind the glue for maximum grip. NOW'S THE TIME. Now's a perfect time to get to work on projects like caulking and weatherstripping. So why not start now? It'll be money in your pocket, when next winter rolls around.
