Beat the Cold Front with 5 Cozy Home Hacks! 🧣🔥



Brrr, Toronto is facing a chilly blast this New Year's Eve, with temperatures dropping to a frosty 7°C! But fear not, we've got five sizzling tips to keep you and your family toasty and warm, ensuring your New Year celebrations are anything but cold!

  1. Bathroom Heater Showdown: Before you dash to get a bathroom heater, check out comparison reports from reputable sources like the 2020 Consumer Council test. Choose between ceiling, window, or wall-mounted models based on efficiency and your bathroom's layout. Remember, the right placement means everything for optimal warmth!

  2. Smart Toilet Seats: Say goodbye to the chilly toilet visits with smart toilet seats! Not only do they provide much-needed warmth, but they also come with nifty features like self-cleaning and bacteria-killing functions. And with options starting around $1,000, upgrading your throne won't break the bank!

  3. Fan Heaters - Yay or Nay?: While fan heaters light up appliance store windows with their affordable tags, they're notorious for drying out the air and being inefficient. If you dread dry air, you might want to skip this option and save yourself from the heat that heads straight to your ceiling instead of keeping you warm.

  4. Oil-filled Radiators: For a quieter, less drying option, consider an oil-filled radiator. They take a bit longer to warm up and might be pricier, but they're worth it for the gentle, consistent heat. Look at the wattage and the number of fins to gauge how toasty you'll be.

  5. Electric Blankets - A Hidden Gem: For a fuss-free, budget-friendly warmth solution, electric blankets are a fantastic choice. Perfect for creating a snug play area on the floor for kids or keeping your lap warm in the living room, these blankets are easy to store away when not in use, making them an ideal pick for Toronto's brief cold snaps.

Don't let the cold dampen your spirits this New Year's Eve! Try out these cozy home hacks and keep the chill at bay. For more winter-proofing tips and home improvement advice, check out our columns. Stay warm, Toronto! 🏠💖
