Re: waterheater/gas - advice said by monchis:if heat should be coming out of the vent towards the room? It might for a few seconds when it first turns on, but after that it should NOT be coming out. In fact, it should be sucking IN slightly. Anything else is dumping carbon monoxide into the room.

Test the Draw: Light a match or piece of paper and blow it out. Place it near the bottom of the flue. If the smoke is not sucked in with authority, the flue may be blocked or in need of cleaning. Also check the joints in the same manner with a it match or candle. If the flame is sucked toward the joint then it needs tightening.
Also, the Home Improvement forum would be a better place for this...
