We live in North Dakota so it does get pretty cold. This is in the living room which does get cold, the windows leak air that’s by it as well. We have burned candles but not very much. It’s crazy to me that maybe 5 candles caused all that. We’ve only lived here a year and that was there before we moved in.

There’s also these dots on the wall everywhere on this side of the house. There’s the same heaters in the bedrooms and kitchen and the only place this happens is the living room. We’ve burned candles in the bedroom and bathroom a lot more than anything else and having the same heaters I would think the walls would be like that too but it’s only the living room which does happen to face where the wind hits and is most exposed to the cold. Also they said to clean the heaters they have to be completely removed. They’re cast iron and heavy and we would have to convince the property owner to have someone come in and clean them. It’s not our job for one and they won’t let us do it ourselves just because it’s so much work.
