Floor mats,   <\/strong>thermal curtains <\/strong> , door bottom insulation, moisture prevention, wall insulation, window caulking with silicone gaskets and window insulation with filters<\/strong>  , we have tried almost everything to keep ourselves warm while limiting   our energy consumption<\/strong>  . But would that be enough during   the winter<\/strong>   ? Unfortunately, some of us will still be forced to  turn on our heating<\/strong>  . However, there remains one question that most French people ask:   energy bills<\/strong>  . These continue to increase during the coldest months of the year and with   energy consumption that is between 60 and 75% <\/strong> (according to ADEME), just to heat your house, things are going to get even worse. That’s why we offer you a solution for   a few cents<\/strong>   that will help you stay warmer   while saving money<\/strong>  .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The unstoppable solution to heat your home at the lowest cost<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you want to heat your home optimally, it is possible to resort to a simple, efficient and economical method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Warm up with terracotta pots and candles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    If all   the means to heat your home   are not enough, there is an   alternative<\/strong>   that, in addition to   saving you   <\/strong>money<\/strong>  , will give you   the warmth and comfort<\/strong>   you need. In fact, it’s all about   making your own DIY heater<\/strong>  . Don’t worry, it’s easy to make and will only cost you a few cents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What do you need:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Two terracotta pots (one small and one large).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • From 4 to 6 candles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • a grid<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • A fireproof base to place candles like an old cake pan<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Bricks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • a salvamanteles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      How to proceed:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Step 1: <\/strong>  Before you start building your   space heater<\/strong>  , place the base on the trivet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Step 2: <\/strong>  Place the candles on the base. Generally, people use the saucer that comes with the pot. If you don’t have one, replace it with a similarly shaped non-flammable object.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Step 3: <\/strong>  You will need something to raise the jar above the candles to create an air intake. You can use tiles stacked on top of each other, a rectangular baking sheet, or even bricks that you place on the sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Step 4: <\/strong>  Light your candles and place them on the rack, then the small pot upside down. Then cover everything with the large pot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Step 5: <\/strong>  The candles will gradually warm the two terracotta pots, which in turn will diffuse the heat into the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The small pot allows the heat produced by the candles to be retained, and clay is a very effective material at this level. This stored heat is then released by the large pot. If you light the candles without the jar covering them, the heat produced will quickly disperse to the rest of the room and you will not feel a thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
