How to Reduce Heating Costs to John Barclay
Homeowners often face drafts from five common sources. Leaking chimney flues and narrow or decorative arches can block draft. Carbon or fly ash buildup requires annual vacuum cleaning of passages and furnace. Flue pipe should sit flush with the wall, and dampers must move freely. For persistent drafts, consult a qualified coal dealer or heating contractor for diagnosis and fixes.
