The cellar is open to the hatchway. |

| Combustible Air Intakes |
| |
Yes, combustible air is a necessity, but the burners need the air, not the room. |

|
| Crawl Space Vents |
| |
Hot humid air inside the crawl space in the summer, and ice cold air in there in the winter. |
| |
|
| Doors |
| |
Leaky doors that don’t close properly are a no-no. |
| |
|
| Fireplace Flue |
| |
It is designed for upward flow, and that is what it does even when there is no fire burning. |
| |
|
| Furnace |
| |
If you have the chimney type, you are losing at least ten percent of your fuel up that chimney. |
| |
|
| Thermostat Location |
| |
Never on a wall that abuts the outside. |
| |
|
| Window Air Conditioner |
| |
But when you cover, what about the gap in the window above the unit? |
