What kind of heating system is it? Forced air? You could have a blocked heating duct to those rooms. Or, the blower could be insufficient for the space. I lived in one house where the room directly above the furnace would get sweltering, but the rooms on the second floor would be cold. The blower w

Check the filter(s). If you have 2 units (for say a 2 zone system), one in the basement and one in the attic, check each one. They are usually between the Furnace/A-C Evaporator and the supply air plenum (air handeler). Also, check the balancing dampers (like big valves in the ductwork). When a

Hmm. The obvious answer is that the registers in the bedrooms are closed down. But, of course, you've already checked that. :-) It could be just a badly designed duct system, but if you've been there a while you probably would have noticed that bad airflow would be a constant thing, not somethi

Poor insulation, perhaps? I would check to see if the insulation above the ceiling and under the roof is in tact. A good test is to see if there is a difference in the far-corners of the closests, which tend to get the least circulation and thus will be the coldest part of the house if this is the

Assuming you've got forced air heat, it sounds like the vent might be either blocked or "turned off". I know that in my house there are switches for the vents at the outlet (where the air comes out) and also a "flap" in the ducting that goes to each room. HTH Hatton Raymond Camden wrote: >Wh
