The squall Gérard has put more than 40 Spanish provinces on alert.
This Tuesday the irruption by the northwest of the peninsula of a mass of polar, very cold air is expected, which will spread in subsequent days to the rest of the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands, giving rise to intense northwesterly winds, and precipitation that will tend to be generalized.
The general decrease in mercury coincides, moreover, with a day in which the price of electricity is on the rise (the highest price during the day is between 8:00 and 9:00 p.m.).
A situation that forces us to look for ‘tricks’ to save on the electricity bill (also gas) without getting cold. What is clear is that heating cannot be dispensed with, much less used only in extreme cases, since it can have negative consequences for our health: respiratory irritation and allergies.
Ideally, the temperature of our home, in winter, does not drop below 19ºC, so it is essential to improve the insulation of the windows and lower the blinds when daylight begins to fall.
Do not forget to ventilate every day, but not for more than 10 minutes, and keep the radiators in good condition and, above all, avoid drying clothes on them.
This habit, so common in Spanish homes, causes radiators to lose their efficiency and the air in the room to become humid. However, in addition to these tips, there are gadgets that can help us to be very comfortable at home without our pocket suffering too much.
It is the case of a hand warmerlike this brand OCOOPAwhich allows them to be kept at an optimal temperature for up to seven hours.
