Spring has sprung. Winter 2026 is officially behind us. ☀️
Looking back, it was one of New Zealand's warmest winters overall - but that didn't stop temperatures from plunging during the coldest spells. Lake Tekapo reached -13.5°C in July and temperatures dropped to -5.1°C in Taupō, reminding us that even a mild winter can still deliver some seriously cold nights. ❄️
And when the temperature drops, your home either holds its warmth or it doesn't.
How did your home perform this winter?
