A window that faces north is best because it is shaded most of the day. • Close the fireplace damper, floor and wall registers so cool air does not escape up the chimney and into the duct work. • Keep blinds and drapes in other windows closed during the sunniest part of the day. • Clean the air filter as recommended in the section “Care and Cleaning.” • Proper insulation and weather stripping in your home will help keep warm air
