Last November, when the bitter winter cold hit, I plugged the large gap under my front door with weatherstripping. It felt like a success at the time because the draft under it had been so severe. But a year on, I’ve realised the weatherstripping bristles are not working well enough, and my entryway is still cold and drafty, leading to a colder living room.
After speaking with experts, including HVAC professionals, I’ve increased my draftproofing this winter with an easy-to-install, stick-on $4 draft blocker from Amazon, for my living room door. I've paired it with a simple $6 Amazon door sweep on the bottom of my front door to double up my draft defenses.
