Getting ready for winter isn’t just about digging out your cozy sweaters and stocking up on hot cocoa—it's about making sure your home is snug, safe, and ready to tackle the colder months head-on. And let's be honest, winter can be a bit unpredictable, so having a little help from technology can make a big difference. That’s where Owl Wired comes in. This device does more than just keep an eye on things—it becomes your home’s winter watchdog.
How Owl can help you own winter:
-
Keep the chill at bay
-
Owl’s climate monitoring feature isn’t just a gadget—it’s your secret weapon against the harsh winter air. It keeps tabs on your home’s temperature and humidity, helping you avoid that annoying dry skin and those pesky static shocks. Plus, when you know your home’s climate is just right, you can crank the heat without worrying about your energy bill going through the roof.
-
Safety first, always:
-
With fireplaces blazing and heaters humming, winter can also bring some risks. Owl’s got your back with real-time alerts for smoke and carbon monoxide, so you can enjoy your warm cocoa by the fire without a second thought.
-
Smarter home, smarter you:
-
Why heat a room no one’s in? With Owl’s motion detection, you can keep tabs on where the action is happening in your home. Use it to save energy by lowering the heat in empty rooms or keeping lights off when no one’s around.
A few more tips to prep for the chill:
-
Seal the deal:
- Drafts? No thanks. Give your windows and doors a once-over, and if you find any sneaky gaps, seal them up. Your energy bill (and your toes) will thank you.
-
Give your heating system some love:
- Your heater works hard all winter, so give it the TLC it deserves. A quick maintenance check before the cold hits can keep things running smoothly all season long.
-
Insulate like a pro:
- Got an older home? It might be time to beef up the insulation in your attic or walls. A well-insulated home is a warm home—and that means lower energy costs too.
-
Prep for the unexpected:
- Winter storms can be unpredictable. Stock up on essentials like blankets, batteries, and non-perishable snacks. And don’t forget to test those alarms—safety first!
