| What can I do about my drafty fireplace. The family room is the coldest room in the house. I have one of those balloon plugs in the flue (does not help) the fireplace is taped up with insulating tape, and there is a blanket hanging on top of it. Still the room is very cold. There are two vents in the room and the air is coming out pretty warm. What else can I do about this fireplace? |

It's not the fireplace if it's all insulated and taped up. Sounds like bad attic and or wall insulation.
Get an oscillating ceramic heater for the room. |

Check your baseboards and electrical outlets for leaks (remove the covers for this).
I agree with the PP that it sounds like somethig else. |
