With a heat stove or a fireplace.

Wood or coal was the common fuel, very inefficient even if every room had a stove or fireplace. By 1900 furnaces using hot water radiators were in use, heat could be piped to every room in the home. More efficient furnaces with electric blowers would not be available until the 1930's.
