It can be a challenge to keep the rooms in your home evenly heated, especially during the cold days of winter. Keeping the rooms throughout your home are evenly heated is determined by many different factors. Luckily, there are also quite a few things you can do to correct the problem.
If your room is too warm, what can you do? Most people merely close the vent to fix the problem. What they don’t realize is that doing this can throw off the balance of your system and essentially reduce your energy efficiency.
So, what should you do instead? We have some tips.
Keep the areas around your cold air return vents clear
Not only does your furnace push hot air through your home to heat it, it draws out cooler air from your inside your home. If your cold air returns are not clear, your furnace can’t do its job. Keeping these vents clear will permit your furnace to operate as it should and help it regulate room temperatures better.
Regular maintenance is key

Don’t rely on Auto setting
Certain rooms in your home may be more removed and are therefore more difficult to heat. Checking that your thermostat has the fan switch “On” instead of on “Auto” can help. When the fan is switched to “On,” your furnace will keep air circulating through all your rooms and create a more even temperature.
