5 Ways to draught proof homes for winter

Now summer is well and truly over in Australia, and the nights are longer and the mornings colder, you will no doubt see an increase in customers looking to beat the chill in their homes. Here are five simple ways to help your customers draught proof their homes and save on their energy bills this winter.   CHECK FOR HEAT ESCAPING  You probably know that heating and cooling account for a big chunk of overall energy usage in the average Aussie home - as much as 38%.

Home fire safety and having a working smoke alarm installed will be the focus at this year's Fire and Rescue NSW Open Day this Saturday May 14th 10am - 2pm. Adults will be able to find out more about home fire safety, while children will be able to see a fire truck, demonstrations, and firefighting equipment.   FRNSW Commissioner Paul Baxter said the annual open day - and we haven't been able to gave on since 2019 - was an opportunity to show people that firefighters do so much more than fight fires.   "A large part of our role is to educate the community about home fire safety and that's where Open Day comes in". Commissioner Baxter said.   "This year we are focussing on the importance of having a working smoke alarm in your home.
