My house is tiny (one bedroom) and was built in 1926. Crawlspace instead of basement, and no place to put a central heating inside unit. I rely on space heaters and layers of clothing. Last spring I insulated the attic with R-30. It had never had insulation before! Originally it had wood stoves in every room, with the kitchen one being for cooking as well.
