hi, we live in a victorian two up, two down with kitchen and bathroom out the back kind of a house. obviously the whole place is pretty draughty, although i'm trying to block up the gaps and it's making a huge difference.
but
my DDs' bedroom, the one at the back, is always really cold, even with the heating on. why might this be? it has no more external walls than the bedroom at the front, but it is generally a good 2 degrees colder.
i have considered getting a chimney balloon (there is a damper there at the moment, which has been there for years, so i'd need to get the chimney swept before i could even measure up for one to avoid any contact with potential bird carcusses), but is there anything else it might be?
it is wsw-facing, so of course it is cooler in the mornings, but it doesn't seem to heat up in the afternoon either...
