How to keep warm in an apartment without heating. Here are some tips to help you keep warm in an apartment if there is no heating yet: Insulate windows and doors: A lot of heat escapes through windows and doors. Use seals, special tapes, or simply seal the joints with masking tape. You can hang thick curtains or stick thermal film on the windows. Use thick curtains and carpets: Thick curtains will help retain heat, and carpets on the floor will make it warmer. It is especially useful to use carpets in places where it is coolest, for example, near windows or the front door. Electric heater: If possible, use an electric heater (oil, convector, or infrared). An oil heater takes a long time to heat up, but retains heat better, while infrared and convector models quickly warm up the air around it. Warm the bed: If you do not have an electric sheet, you can put a bottle of hot water or a heating pad in your bed before going to bed - they will create localized heat and help you warm up faster. Wear warm clothes and blankets: Knitted socks, a sweater, a scarf and cozy blankets will help keep you warm without overheating. It is better to choose clothes made of wool or fleece, as these materials retain heat best. Prepare hot drinks and food: Cooking food and drinks helps to warm up both physically and psychologically. Tea, soup or a hot dish creates a feeling of warmth. While cooking, the oven or stove will also heat the room, which will at least improve the situation a little. Do not block the sunlight: If the apartment receives sunlight during the day, try not to close the windows. The sun's rays can warm the room a little. Use fan heaters or hair dryers for spot heating: For temporary and localized heating, you can turn on a fan heater or hair dryer. Reduce the space for heating: If you have several rooms, try to reduce the space by leaving only one room open. Close the doors to prevent the heat from escaping. These tips will help you survive the cold days until the heating comes on.
