In the winter I am in the habit of opening my oven door once I am done baking so that I can add the heat to the house. However I recently thought about it and it would seem that even if the door is closed, and the oven insulated, the only way for the oven to cool would be to heat the house. So this would mean that there is no benefit to opening the door in the winter and keeping it closed in the summer.
So my question is: Does opening the door of a hot oven heat the house more effectively than allowing it to cool with the door closed?
