I own a 110 year old house. An oil furnace was put in many years ago. It's a two and a half story house. The oil furnace heats the first two floors. The only thermostat is right inside the first floor door on the right. There are only a few cold registers on the two floors. The outside door opens to a hall with a stairway going to the second floor. There is a cold register in this hall, which gets no heat at all. Should the only thermostat have been put right next to the first floor door? and is having the main cold register in a space that is always cold in the winter a bad idea? I'm assuming when they were replacing the coal furnace they configured the duct system as best they could. Thanks
