Windows and doors covers test in winter


We are busy enough with our work and our daily life is full of stress so we do not have time to check our window and doors for winter. Sometimes we found out big gas or electricity bill at the end of the year but we did not realize how that happens. There is lots of discussion with owner of the house if all are correct, but we neglect to check our doors and windows before winter arrived.
The best way to solve this problem is by making sure all our doors system working functionally. These processes contain all windows, doors and including basement windows and well cover windows too. It just takes couple of hour to do this and it is easy process.
This is what I do for my home to make sure all functional. First of all I clean all windows and door in my apartment and check if any of my window has air leaking by checking the rubber at the edge of the windows. If I find some breaking in rubber, then I replace it immediately. I also check the whole in the window wells if it is working correct according to standard. If not I find the solution to solve it. This can be costly but it is worthwhile replacing it to save money in future.
Here are a few example of window well covers design that I had change before the winter arrived. That is why I am writing this to let everyone finding the right decision. There are many different design available for basement to keep small animals away.

Forget your Basement Construction Design


Here you will find one of the useful information about installing the basement window well covers to save energy and provide livening in the nature. One of the big mistake the basement constructor make was not thinking enough about design structure because they think it is under the ground level and people are not looking it seriously. That is actually big mistake for homeowner; normally it is the most important part of the building to have perfect design basement that have totally clear system description that help everyone in future.
Basement should not only have the fresh air but also natural sunlight when it is possible. If it doesn’t provide the natural light you will be spending lots of money in future for energy needs.

Think about all the possibilities that you will need in future and fix exactly according to your need that you problem is solved.

Horse Summer falling through Basement Well Cover On Monday in Colorado


The owner of the house was enjoying morning coffee outside the Garden while Summer(horse) falling into basement from the window well covers. He has no time to get a rope and get the house out of the window well. Luckily no one get hurt from the big horse falling, only the summer get scrapes from glass well covers.
It is amazing how it had happened, when I read the news I was surpreised how that happen. The window well cover need to be good enough to protect strong heavy weight animals from falling. I am sure the frame of the well is not strong enough to resist the 550kg weight Summer. Or the house owner did not use safety egress widow well covers.

It happened when the house summer had stapped on the Plexiglas window well covers and broke through the well because of the heavy weight. They needed to call Emergency department and crews come to safe the horse but they have big problem getting the animal out of the basement. To rescue Summer they needed to dig the window well with machine, make big enough for house to get out.

It tooks more than 17 hours for Rescue teams with more than 10 people to safe summer. The Crews from Elbert Country Sheriffs Office, Rattlesnake Fire Protection District, Elbert Country Road, Bridge Department and Miller Corping Company work all together to safe the animal. Luckily Summer was ok after all.
That is why I will put here installing right quality window well covers is worth to invest for house and building. This kind of accident can be avoid by using the right well covers for the basement in every house. I posted some pic I found together with the article on the web.
