How to install Weather Stripping
Have you ever felt the air coming in the room from surface while sitting on your couch? Does it happen that the air conditioner of your room is on and you still feel hot? If it so, then there is a need to replace the weather stripping in your house around the doors and a lot of care is needed for it. It prevents the heat from entering the house during the hot summer season and also prevents the cold from entering the house and heat from getting out. It is very easy task and you can carry on with it yourself and that too at a very nominal cost.
On a visit to any hardware store, you will be able to find a huge collection of the weather stripping which can be used. In case you have never done this before, the easiest and best kind of weathering strip to use for windows is the one made of foam. It is much durable than the vinyl weather stripping and even has adhesive backing on it. A lot of population prefer to use the vinyl for the weather stripping because of its looks. But assuredly they need to replace them after every few months because of wear-tear on the stripping.

In order to start the work of replacing in your home, start with one room and check which side needs to be resealed. Then cut the weather stripping of measurements made so as to fit the area. In case you are working on along a window area using a foam stripping having adhesive backing, you simply need to take off the backing and fit the stripping into the place. After fixing the stripping, you can check the area by placing your hand along the stripping. If you feel any air then you need to rearrange the stripping. You can also add silicone caulking over the stripping.
For the doors, more durable and productive stripping is used. For such areas, stripping having vinyl or metal inserts in it is used. For attaching the stripping, you need to take a hammer the nails at every small distance into the door frame.
