F. Information about the private home
Once the dwelling part is finished, you will ask questions referring to the Census home.
Remember that in a dwelling inhabited by more than one private home you should fill out as many documents as there are homes.
Write in each one of the documents the information about each of the homes. You should not repeat information in Section E. Information of the private dwelling.
Cancel this section upon enumerating the second and following homes that share this dwelling.
4. Sources of energy
4.2. System of heating
Do you use any means of heating your rooms?
Central heating: It is the system of heating in which the release of heat (combustion) is centralized in one place but many rooms are heated by means of radiators, radiant heating, or similar means. The heat is transported through an agent, generally water.
To this respect it interests us to distinguish when it is common with other homes, for example: in apartment buildings, from when it is unique to the home.
Stove: Appliance that releases heat into a room where it is found.
Conditioner: Electric appliance that heats or cools the air of a room.
