Tip #284: Add storm doors for energy efficiency

Storm doors are easy to add to your home, and they will make your home more energy efficient by deflecting wind and reducing the heat exchange through your doors. Available in a wide variety of designs and colors, storm doors can be installed reasonably quickly. Many storm doors are very attractive, and they add a layer of safety when opening the door to strangers. In summer the glass panels can be switched to screen in regions where air conditioning is not required.
