Question: I bought some of those plastic "Space Bag" storage bags that you vacuum the air out of after you fill them up, for storing some clothes.

Are there any tips you have for using them? Like is there any point to ironing clothes before you put them in? Does

Answer: I tore my first one. I over filled it thinking it could handle it.
So next i layed out every bag by size that came in the box.
I folded my pants very tight and flat as i could.
with my sweaters I did the same making it very even on the corners. i did not

The vacuum wont hurt the clothes at all- one trick to using space bags is to open them up about every three months to let the clothes expand, then re-vacuum the air out of them- but they are gonna wrinkle in the bag so I wouldn't bother to iron them first! Good Luck!

Get your wood-burning fireplace in tiptop shape for the winter

18.05.12

Glass doors are a good thing to add to your fireplace for a couple of reasons. You can close them at the end of the evening without closing the damper so that the burning embers can still burn down after you go to bed. They also prevent a lot of your household air from going up and out the chimney.

Burn only seasoned wood. It lights easier and burns longer than fresher wood. Never burn chemically treated wood.

Installing a new fireplace insert with glass doors and a heat exchanger will be huge steps toward adding efficiency to your fireplace. These retrofit fireboxes are just great.

Special reflective panels, or firebacks, can be installed at the back and along the sides of your fireplace to reflect the heat back out into the room. They also protect the brick mortar from deteriorating from the excessive heat produced by your fireplace.

Another way to increase efficiency is to add an outdoor air supply to the fireplace. This allows the heated air from your home to stay in your home, and the air that the fire needs for combustion comes from the great outdoors.
