๐โThe holiday season is here in ๐๐ ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฌ! and as temperatures drop, we want to make sure youโre not just staying warm, but also saving energy during your stay at your vacation rental! ๐ Here are some simple friendly tips to keep your vacation rental cozy and energy-efficient:
๐๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ฌ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง๐ฌ ๐๐ญ ๐๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ: Itโs not just about keeping the warmth inโitโs about keeping the cold out! Closing your curtains or blinds at night traps heat and adds an extra layer of insulation, making your rental feel extra cozy.
โจ๏ธ๐๐๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐ฆ๐จ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ญ: If youโre staying in a rental with a programmable or smart thermostat, donโt forget to adjust the temperature to your comfort level. Lower it when youโre out exploring, and set it to a cozy level when youโre back inside.
๐ฃ๐๐ฌ๐ ๐๐ซ๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ฌ: If the floors feel cold (especially in tile or wood homes), adding a rug can help keep the warmth in and create a snug atmosphere for your holiday getaway.
๐๐๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐ฌ: Check around windows and doors for any drafts. If you feel a breeze, try using towels or blankets to block any drafts until the owner or property manager can take a look. Itโll help keep the warmth in!
๐๐๐ง๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ ๐๐๐ฏ๐ข๐๐๐ฌ ๐๐ก๐๐ง ๐๐จ๐ญ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ฌ๐: Devices left plugged in continue to draw energy, even if theyโre turned off. Unplugging items like chargers, lamps, or kitchen appliances when not in use can save energy and reduce your carbon footprint.
โค๏ธโ๐ฅ๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐ฉ: Sometimes the best way to stay warm isnโt cranking up the heat! Cozy blankets, warm sweaters, and hot drinks are perfect for the holiday vibeโand theyโll help you save energy while staying comfortable.
A cozy, energy-efficient vacation home makes for a more relaxing, enjoyable holiday. Plus, it's better for the environment, so everyone wins! ๐ฑโจ
