Insulate Air Ducts

If you have a central heating system in your home and your air ducts aren't insulated, then you might be losing up to 30% of your warm air. That's a huge percentage, and it translates to much higher energy bills. So, it's worth making sure that your air ducts are insulated, and that heated air isn't being lost as it's traveling through the ducts and into whatever room it's supposed to be getting to.

Insulating your air ducts is also a fairly simple project, and insulation can be bought at most hardware stores for fairly cheap prices. It just might be a bit time-consuming considering you're going to have to crawl around in the attic.
