How can a furnace relate to a Christmas Tree????

Place your tree in the optimal location in your home. There are a lot of things that go into choosing where to put your Christmas tree. You have to consider furniture placement, windows, televisions, and ceiling height. But perhaps the most important thing to consider when placing your tree is its proximity to a heat source.

You do not want to place your tree near a heat vent or the air intake for your furnace. I made that mistake one year and ended up with a dry, brittle tree on Christmas. (I gave up vacuuming the floor and started vacuuming needles directly off of the tree.) Also be sure that you keep it far from your fireplace, space heater, or wood stove. Even windows with direct sunlight can cause a tree to dry out too quickly.
