A THRIFTY man has shared his easy trick that lowers temperatures in older homes.
He revealed that the hack has helped him save money on his electricity bills.
Thee (@theevees) shared the money-saving tip with over 70,000 TikTok followers.
“Easy affordable way to lower temp in an older home,” he said.
The DIY whizz made a quick trip to the hardware store to grab supplies that he needed to help out a neighbor.
He picked up a large piece of insulation board and headed to the neighbor’s home to execute the quick and easy solution.
He measured the neighbor’s window and cut the insulation board to fit perfectly inside the frame.
Using some painter’s tape, he secured the board to the window to block out light and lower the temperature in the room.
Some viewers had tried the trick out for themselves and took to the comments to share their reviews.
“Yup it works..and keeps sunlight out if you want to sleep late lol,” said one commenter.
Others were inspired by the idea and set out to try it out for themselves.
“Done and done. The hardest part was cutting but I ended up using a drywall saw,” said one commenter.
“We are about to have 108 this weekend. So let’s see how it works. Use tape.”
“I gotta try, I have a 500 dollar bill for one month, how in the hell does that happen?” joked another.
