We've upgraded some parts; others still to come (when the economy improves). Apparently they can do heated floors anywhere. If we do that, it will take some heating away from oil and move to electricity. My "deal" would be that if we get heated floors in the bathroom and perhaps elsewhere, I want a windmill to power it.

Wow! We did, but it's split and shared with the middle upstairs bedroom. We did add an air flow booster to the vent that supplies the master bedroom. It's like a motorized fan that hooks up to the furnace so when the furnace goes on the fan in the top of the vent turns on and pushes more hot air into the bedroom. That helps a lot too! Oh and yes - heated floors would probably help too ... do they do that on upstairs floors? David – you didn’t have a heating vent in your bedroom? Wow!

Our bedroiom was indeed the most cold, but we did some renovations two years ago so that we now have a heating vent. That leaves the main bathroom as the coldest room - the only one without its own heating vent. Maybe we'll add heated floors some day... Funny you should ask the question.
