Hi all

Not the most thrilling of threads but as I'm trying hard to cut gas and electricity consumption I'm interested to know what you guys have your thermostats set at over the winter?

I've got mine at 16 degrees at the moment but it's flippin cold and i've got two fleeces on :rolleyes:

Ours is at 20, and sometimes we up it to 21 for a little bit as we have a very cold house!

19 for mine but heating is only on for 3 hours in the morning and 4 in the evening.

16!!! I live in a three bed terrace and even without the heating its 18 (and that feels cold!!!) You must have some very thick jumpers on!

Feel ashamed to say now that I have it at 22!!! Maybe i need to suffer the cold a bit more

Mines at 25 most of the time is that bad???

I've got mine at 15-16, but haven't put it on timed yet, we just turn it on at about 4pm until my youngest goes to bed at 7pm. We have cavity wall insulation and good loft insulation so while it's reasonably mild the house stays warm for hours after the heating is off.

I try my best not to put the heating on during the day when the kids are at school, but it's getting hard. I've got a jumper and fleece on and my hands are freezing! I get a bit peed off sometimes that I'm in a situation where I'm so worried about the bills I end up shivering rather than putting the heating on, but then I persuade myself that this way I'm doing my bit for the environment and it's not really about money (yeah right :rolleyes: :rotfl:)

I am a disgrace I have it at 30(yes I know I have seen the ads, take it down to 20 and you save ...!!)
I just like a huge burst of heat and then switch it off for the rest of the day!! xx
