Not sure if you guys remember my thread about how I can heat my house more efficiently but I think this room is the major cause of my issue. It has windows and a sliding door on all sides and it is connected to my kitchen. This room is always the coldest in my house and makes the rest of the family room/kitchen also. I want to say its 5° colder then the rest of that level of my house. When it is cold and windy you can feel drafts just sitting on the couch. The room as a baseboard heater but it's way to expensive to run it at all times. I really like sitting in here and looking out over the backyard and river.
Kinda considering adding a sliding door from the kitchen to this room to seal it off. Only issue is it would only get heat or AC if the door is left open. The room only has a return vent. Wouldn't be an issue to leave the door open in the summer but in the winter the room would eventually get down to outside temps if I don't run the expensive electric baseboard heater.
Can anyone think of any better options?
