Closed or blocked air vents — Closed vents can cause stop air from entering a room. You will want to check the vents to make sure they are open, clear of any blockages, and not covered by furniture.
Open windows — Warm air is easily lost if the windows are open even a crack, leaving uneven temperatures in your home. You will want to check that all windows are completely closed.
