Yeah, I'm beginning to realize that. It's just that every time I feel the heat radiating from that vent pipe, a little piece of me dies inside.

I plan on running a fresh air pipe for the furnace and water heater. Not sure yet if I'm going to seal them up, but I don't like the outside air mixing with the basement air.
