Re: Is there any harm in keeping heat off in a closed off room?
The weather is pretty mild here but when we moved in we had 3 rooms completely unused. The upstairs and downstairs has separate heating and cooling, and just enough heat would waft upstairs to heat the hall and our bedroom so we didn't turn it on upstairs for the most part for 3 years. So 3 closed off bedrooms had no heat.
No prob.
OF course I don't think it really dropped below 50 inside so maybe more of a consideration in colder climates - I don't know. We had nice wood furniture in the rooms- they are all fine. I would guess if you set it to 45 or 50 should be just fine. You get lower than that, I have no idea...
YEah now we turn on the heat upstairs for the kids who now fill the once empty rooms. One more way they cost us money - LOL.
