As winter approaches in Luxembourg, now’s the perfect time to make your home more comfortable and energy-efficient. Here are five easy steps to enjoy a warm and stress-free winter at home.

Bleed your radiators and check your system

If air builds up in your radiators or your heating circuit is blocked, heat won’t circulate properly. As a result, your system uses more energy to reach the same temperature. Bleeding your radiators before the cold sets in is a quick and simple way to improve heating efficiency.

Set the right temperature for each room

Don’t heat every room the same way: according to Klima-Agence, lowering the temperature by one degree can cut your energy use by about 6%.

For example: 20°C in the living room, 17–18°C in bedrooms, 22–23°C in the bathroom. Close unused rooms and lower the heating at night.

A well-regulated heating system keeps your home at a steady, healthy temperature — great for your sleep, comfort and overall well-being.

Seal drafts: windows, doors, joints

In Luxembourg, up to 10–15% of heat loss in poorly insulated homes comes from doors and windows.

Quick fixes: install draft stoppers, replace window seals, close shutters at night to block the cold. Small actions that make a big difference on your bill.

Improve insulation: roof, walls, attic

Poor insulation causes up to 25–30% of heat loss through the roof and 20–25% through the walls.

If you’re on a budget, start with the attic or roof — even partial improvements can noticeably boost comfort and reduce energy use.

Add warmth and comfort

Thermal comfort is key in every home. A well-insulated, cozy space feels more inviting and comfortable every day.

Add a few cozy touches: thermal curtains, thick rugs, soft lighting. They don’t replace renovation work, but they do make your home warmer and more welcoming.

A little preparation, a few smart habits… and you’re ready to enjoy a warm, stress-free winter!
