How can I use the heat from my fireplace to heat my two story home? ?
In my house I use corner fans in the entryways leading from my great room where my fireplace is to help disperse the heat. These are specially designed fans which you affix in the corner of doorways to pull the heat from that room. You will have to put screws into the door frame to hold the fan, but you can use small ones which don’t show when the fan is up. position the fan so that it is turning in the direction you want the air to go. Don’t put them up so they blow air back into our den! I found mine in a Sportsmans Guide catalog, but I’m sure you can find them on their website or on eBay. Hope this helps!
