		<description>Your best bet for lowering the heating bill is to use small space heaters in the room you are in.  Why turn on the fireplace if no one is downstairs?</description>

		<description>Well your fire plae yes because obviously gas is cheaper than electric.  But i mean if anything just wear warmer clothes...i dont know where you so i dont know if its like 30 degrees where you live but for example i live i Houston and it doesnt really get &quot;that&quot; cold down here during this time so we just wear warmer clothes like a long sleeve shirt or thow on a sweat shirt and have on long pants pajama pants or something.  A/c nor heater is ever on when its cool enough outside...turn it off.  Use your fire place and dress warm</description>

		<description>That sounds like a band-aid solution.  It would be far better to begin applying a slightly more permanent solution-using blue-board or green-board panels.  These are foam-core boards in 2x8 and 4x8 foot sheets with or without foil backings.  It would be best to go without foil backing, and beware of formaldehyde odors.  Once you apply these to the inside surface of your outside facing walls (the ones that frame the actual house, not interior walls) then the heating bills will drop drastically.  I should know-several years before I left my parents&#039; home, which was a mobile home with terrible insulation, we began attaching greenboard to the inside wall surfaces.  Just in one room, near the wood stove we used in the winter, it was so warm, we actually began decreasing our wood usage.  The temperature difference might have been as high as 15 degrees higher after we attached the insulation board.  It usually measures 1 inch thick, so be prepared to re-plan your interior, but even in the summertime, the cooling bills will be much, much lower because the cold air will stay inside.   Just try it in a small room upstairs-see what happens.  You only need to be careful not to go broke buying all that insulation board-buy a few panels at a time.</description>
