Do You Recycle Hot Air From Your Growroom?

Just wondering if anyone has found any good practical uses for all the hot air that's being pumped out of the grow-rooms?

Surely you'd save on heating bills in the winter if you pumped that air into cavity walls or pipes or something?

What about under floor heating pipes?

How does this work? Doesn't the heat just escape from your attic?
I don't know what Im going do this winter, Im going to have to flip the fan around i think.. the way I got my air flow set up, it sucks air from under a door and up into the attic. Im worried that its gonna suck all the warm air out and my furnace is gonna be running 24/7
