IN SHORT: Bedroom 60' away from furnace. Was cold and drafty in winter since moved there in 2009. Slept with two blankets, 1 an electric blanket. When temperatures outside reached 40 degrees, turned the electric blanket on to go to sleep & during the night. January 7, 2014, temperature outside was 13 degrees & wind blowing. Must admit, SURPRISE SURPRISE. Only one blanket, NO electric blanket. When temperature around 50 degrees later in the week, some nights just a sheet would do. Delaware Co-op advises to check the ducts for leaks & if approved tape to seal. Best leave it to The Pros. I left it to Joe & Carlos of Dr. Energy Saver, The Pro's, & they brought reduction in air leaks(loss of heat) down by 96%! Reduction of supply ducts down to 1 square inch & return ducts down to 3 square inches; from the size of a 36"x8' door.
