I would sit down in winter and have seriously cold feet... I understand you need fans in those rooms to blow the hot air down, but just a heads up - I kinda regret getting rid of my radiators as far as uniform heat distribution... Maybe it's because that house has high ceilings but keep it in mind
Hmm, while I have walls open I wonder if there is an easy way to install air circulation from top of wall to bottom of wall. Maybe someone makes this.
