Many apartments have window air conditioning units that can be difficult to remove when not in use during the fall and winter months. The next best thing to prevent cold air from seeping indoors through the unit is to cover it. Home improvement stores sell inexpensive insulated covers that fit snugly on the inside and exterior part of the air conditioner. These covers are waterproof, snowproof and effectively block any drafts to keep your room safe from cold air.

Colder weather can bring an opportunity to detox the things in your home. When the temperature dips below freezing at night, lay out a clean tarp in the garage and place items like plush toys, throw pillows and comforters on top overnight. The freezing temperatures will kill microscopic dust mites and other allergens, giving your plush things a fresh new start the next day.
