Heat escaping from the house is a big problem during the fall-winter period. High bills make us want to keep it in the house as much as possible and thus save a bit. Here is one of the ways to do it effectively.

A TikToker showed a great trick on how to effectively heat an apartment and not let the warmth escape outside. The method is very simple and does not require much effort. Importantly, it also doesn't cost anything, because the product she uses can be found in any home. Do you want to keep more heat in your house on a daily basis? If so, we advise how to do it.

Is the warmth escaping from your house? Let's stop it at all costs

It's getting colder and colder. It's hard to fend off the cold that sneaks into the apartment through every crack, and we're trying to save on heating after all. We care about spending less, not more, so we rather turn down the radiators than heat at full power. Is there a way to keep more heat in the house? Of course, it can be done.

A simple trick with aluminum foil. It's worth trying

To retain more heat in the house, you can create your own "reflector" at home. TikToker from the channel @the.cosyclub showed in a video how to do it. The trick is very cheap and it does not require any special skills. All you need is a piece of cardboard (e.g., from an old package) and aluminum foil.

We wrap the cardboard tightly in foil, and then fix it on the wall behind the radiator. In this way, the heat is reflected towards the apartment, rather than being absorbed by the cold wall. The woman assures that this method really works and helps to save a bit on expensive heating.

This method works. Positive comments poured in

In response to the video, delighted users have commented assuring that it really works. Some have been using this hack for a long time because in the fall-winter season everyone wants to save a bit - by any means possible. And it's known that simple methods are the best. A cardboard wrapped with foil is a cheap method to increase the comfort in an apartment that is hard to heat or does not retain heat.
