Q1: What are some simple ways we can keep our homes warmer and use less heating?

[Answer]

Homes are boxes filled with air. To keep a home warm we heat the air. But we don't want to lose too much of the heat in the air.

We could lose heat through the walls, the windows and the roof, so we can slow this down by using insulating materials.

We can stop losing the warm air by preventing draughts.
