Description
Definition
HEATFUEL reports the type of fuel the household uses for heating.
The information in HEATFUEL is taken from the household record and applies to regular household residents, not temporary visitors. Researchers may wish to exclude visitors (coded "2") using:
RESIDENT variable when women, children, or births are the unit of analysis
HHRESIDENT variable when household members are the unit of analysis
RESIDENTMN variable when men are the unit of analysis.
