The thermostat needs to be returned only to its normal setting in the morning. —Don’t leave windows or doors open when the furnace is on. If you want to ventilate a room, close the furnace outlet there and shut the door to close the room off from the rest of the house. —Some furnaces and heaters are too small for the area they are meant to serve.
