The winter is a harsh time of year for everything, including your house. Now, before the real storms of winter hit, is the best time to prepare your home for winter's cold and damaging weather. Preparing your home for winter is an important step involved with homeownership, and all who own homes or other property should take the time to properly ready their home for winter. Failing to fully prepare the home for winter could not only lead to increased costs for wasted utility bills in the endless struggle to heat the home, but also to more and expensive summer time repairs to the home or even costs incurred from mishaps stemming from an unsafe home.

Sally on the other hand was a solar-energy-loving, die-hard Yankee fan, red-headed fire-ball that was clever enough to live amongst her straight-laced neighbors undetected. In fact, she enjoyed living amongst these uptight, yet oddly kind people.

Both of these lapses in home winterization can lead to both damage to the home or personal injury to an individual. Snow retention clips keep dangerous snow and ice packs on the roof where they can safely be distributed away by the home's drainage systems instead of dangerously falling from the roof and onto walkways and pathways around the home.

Similarly, if the gutters to a home are not properly cleaned in preparation for winter, then the home's roof drainage systems cannot work properly. When the drainage system does not work like it should then it is likely to have melting and refreezing snow water collect on the pathways and driveways of the home which will cause extremely perilous conditions to exist around the home.

Solar panels are made with the use of several different layers of materials. The top layer is made of phosphorus-diffused silicon and carried un-anchored particles with negative charge. A thicker second layer has holes in it to assist in the movement of particles throughout. As soon as the sun hits the panels, the electrons are activated. Electrons that are present in the bottom layer rise to the top of the cell. Metal contacts are used to create a current that flows back into the cell via a solid contact layer at the bottom. Different solar panels work in different ways. The above description applies to the most commonly available solar panels in the consumer marketplace.

The end of the week found Sally's neighbors begging to know her secret. Anything. They would do anything to know what Sally had done to save enough money from her elementary-school pittance to afford such a window. Recognizing the genuine willingness to listen and obey in the eyes of her neighbors, she explained that she had solar shingles.

In addition, the homeowner can take other steps to see that the inside of their home is well insulated. Installing specialized covers for doorframes and windowsills will help to seal in the common leaks to a house that let warm air escape. There are many ways for a family to prepare their home for winter, and none should be overlooked if possible. By preparing the home for the winter in every needful way, the family inside the home will be able to have cost effective, comfortable, and safe winter season.
