An open chimney is likely to be the single biggest source of air loss in a home, drawing air out of a building at an average rate of 80 cubic metres per hour. It's comparable to leaving a window open all the time, but is exacerbated by the stack effect. It causes warm air to be pulled out of your home via your chimney and cold air pulled in, during the winter. In the summer, warm air is pulled in via your chimney and cold air is pulled out.
