Aren't you tired of sky-high winter power bills? Start with your windows to stop the cold from getting in.

BRANZ, an independent research organisation, says:
• 42% to 45% of heat in houses insulated to Pre-2007 requirements is lost through windows.
• If your home has been built or renovated under the 2007 Building Code, which requires double glazing, you still lose up to 31% of heat through windows.
• Properly fitted curtains and blinds can cut heat loss through single glazed windows by 60% and double glazed windows by 40-50%.
Choosing the right window treatments will help insulate windows and prevent heat loss. Here are three options to answer your "how can I warm up my home?" this winter.
Honeycomb Blinds
Honeycomb blinds are one of the most energy-efficient window treatments. They are also known as honeycomb or cellular shades. These window coverings feature a honeycomb structure to make an air pocket between the window glass and the room that acts as an insulator, blocking heat and keeping the cold out.
When a heater is running, Honeycomb blinds reduce heat loss through windows by up to 60%, which equals around 10% savings on your heating energy. In hotter months, honeycomb blinds reduce unwanted heat from the sun through windows by up to 60% when installed with a tight fit. They are available in different layering options, including single and double-cell.
Heavy curtains or drapes
Drapes or curtains are another way to insulate your home by adding one extra barrier against the cold winter air. The main difference is that curtains are sized to fit the window, and drapes reach the floor.

I am looking for a lovely flatmate to come and join me in a lovely 3 bedroom very sunny house in Northland/Wilton.
I am a mature early childhood teacher in Thorndon and have one 3 year old cat that lives with me. Would you like to join us too?

I am looking for a lovely flatmate to come and join me in a lovely 3 bedroom very sunny house in Northland/Wilton.
I am a mature early childhood teacher in Thorndon and have one 3 year old cat that lives with me. Would you like to join us too?
The weekly rent is $300 which includes internet. Power and cleaning products will be split between us as required.
The house has a garden, carport, is fenced and looks out over Otari bush.
The Number 22, 13 buses leave right outside the neighbours house and run through the city and past Vic University.
Ideally there would only be myself and one other living here as it would be great to be able to keep one of the rooms spare for guests or an office if needed.
Here is the trademe post. trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=3570043565
All questions welcome

I am a great dog who loves to have cuddles, I love to have humans around me. Due to my young age I would be better for me to go to a home that has no young children. I can be a little shy with new people and then I am a bouncy bean. I would be fine for me to go to a home with teenagers.
So far I had a little bit of training, I am a bit uncoordinated and jumpy. With training, we both need to start from scratch. I am very willing to learn. You will see me blossom from an uncoordinated boy to a very well trained dog that will stick by your side. I need to be introduced to the world slowly as it can be a little overwhelmingly for me. I am great with other dogs at the centre and love to play. A home with a slightly older dog would mix well with me, so they can show me the ropes on how to be the best dog. If you are a ready for a new man in your life, please click on my profile and my heart could be yours forever."
