Increase the r-factor in windows easily
I bought two-inch insulating board and cut it to fit my windows exactly. I covered them with pretty contact paper and in the winter I put them on all the windows. They are held in place by the lip edge of the window and the exact fit. It cost about $40.00 to do all the windows and saved 40 percent on my heating bills. It is well worth the effort of putting them up and taking them down. I live in Michigan where winters are brutal by the lakes.
