The one building we have thatis heated has artifacts, so we keep the heat
on low for the winter

Hello friends.
I have a question for you which I am asking on behalf of another historical
organization which owns historic buildings. For those of you who own
a standalone, small building (like a one-room school or church), do you he
at it in the winter? The historical society who owns a one-room schoo
l in our area doesn’t want to heat it in the winter because it isn
’t used and there is a significant heating bill involved. How
ever, I know that even minimally heating an old building helps to preserve
it. So, I would appreciate hearing from those of you who own a histor
ic building and close it up for the winter—do you heat it or not?
Thank you,
Jarrod
