I would turn on the ceiling fans, if you don't have any have one installed, Heat rises, so all the heat at your ceiling needs to pushed back down to the floor to keep the temp in the room more comfortable. You may find, after the fans are on or installed the upstair rooms might be cooler. Keep them on all the time to keep the heat constant throughout the room and keep the air moving, another thing is that you might want to purchase a humidifier to put mositure in the air so that the heater doesn't have to heat the dry air, plus the humdifier will keep your skin from drying out.

More window insulation downstairs and better air circulation...you can do this cheaply by using small fan mounted near the ceiling of the downstairs close to the stairwell to draw the warmer air from above downstairs

properly with the suggestion you have given it fairly is extremely stressful to respond to. do u have crucial air or purely air conditioners or neither? attempt seperating the rooms by using putting a curtain on the backside and or appropriate of the stairs. additionally attempt an in room air conditioner you do not ought to put in a window. reckoning on the dimensions or the rooms this ought to save the downstairs air downstairs and make the upstairs cooler. they provide all of those products at and kmart, walmart, sears, or different branch keep and its a particularly low-value answer for the summer season or iciness as you ought to get an area heater and save it downstairs so the warmth air will stay there. goodluck.

You may have to keep heater set lower and buy an energy efficient space heater for downstairs. I had the same problem when I lived in a townhome for a few years in graduate school.

I assume that the heat in question is baseboard resistance heating. If that is the case, individual room thermostats can be installed for temperature control.

If the stair configuration is right, hang a curtain panel across the top of the stairs.
