BEAUMONT, Texas — Now that we're finally seeing some chilly temperatures, many of us are thinking about ways we can keep our homes warm.
Sure, you can turn up the thermostat but that can be costly.
Your "best bet" is to look around your house for places where the cold is creeping in.
Whether you own or rent a home, now's a good time to climb into the attic to check your insulation.
Experts say proper insulation can lead to serious savings on your heating and cooling bills.
Entergy also recommends downloading the free app from their website to stay "up to date" on outages.
"We want to give you the most current updates of different information, of power outages or any type of reliability issues," Karen Do, Entergy Texas Public Affairs official said.
They also say insulating walls and attics as well as caulking doors and windows can help.
If you have the budget, installing storm windows or double-paned windows can also help.
