One may be puzzled if there are still cold spots within the house after making sure the thermostat and furnace are in adequate working order. The cool climate in a few areas could be resulting from a problem with the air ducts. Air ducts control the flow of air to different places in the household. The first thing to look at is the dampers. If the dampers aren't opened completely, not enough hot air can to travel through the duct to warm the room. If the dampers are open fully, there is likely a gap or leak someplace in the ductwork. This is more difficult to fix or find based on on the property. Leaking ducts are a serious issue since they can run up ones energy costs and suck in dirt and debris may contribute to poor air quality.
