The best way to prepare your home for winter is to check and make sure that all windows, doors, and other openings are sealed properly. Make sure you have adequate insulation in walls, floors, and attics. Check your furnace and make sure it's working properly before cold weather arrives. Consider adding extra blankets or quilts to beds and couches to keep warm during the night. If possible, move furniture away from windows and heat sources to prevent drafts. Finally, be sure to clear any snow and ice from walkways and steps to ensure safety.
