Description
🔗 At our age, 65°F indoors can already be dangerous. What doctors say, and how to heat for less anyway: https://larshalvorsen.com
Fifty-one winters of wood heat in the same Gudbrandsdalen farmhouse, and the chimney has never caught. Lars Halvorsen explains the one temperature that decides whether smoke leaves a house or stays inside the flue, why the quiet overnight fire is more dangerous than the big hot one, and six things to look at before the cold sets in. The last one is work most people did on purpose last autumn.
