    Went to Woodies and instead of covers that go over the vents you have already, you have to buy new ones. Its been like a fridge in my front room this week!

    I did that last year. Took off vent covers in front room and filled around wavin pipe with expanding foam. There was a really bad finish around pipes and wind was getting in and coming out under the skirting boards! I've since taken the skirting boards off completely and found there's plenty of room under there for hiding stuff. I hid 2 more large cans of expanding foam there along both external walls and now the room stays warm for much longer. Worth the effort for 25e
