<<Realizing that windows account for about 25% of heat loss in a house, we added another layer to the windows using the inexpensive plastic storm window kits sold at hardware stores. After this, our daytime and nighttime temperatures were about 5 degrees higher...... Just a suggestion to consider throwing a couple of these plastic storm window kits into your Y2K provisions. As far as we could tell, nobody else thought of this.>> Good idea, John. For those really ice cold nights we have in the northern plains in January, I have some 1" styrofoam pieces I cut to fit right into the inside window frames in my bedroom windows. Works great. Can be stored under the bed, etc.
