At what point do you like your heating?
Options
Similar to the official questions but its less to do with money saving and actual comfort.
I for example don't have heating on except when needed so can be freezing then put on heating feel hot quite quickly but if I turn it off I feel freezing again quickly, if I last a few hours with heating on I can turn it off and have it off the rest of the day and still feel hot.
If I have it on low all day it feels cool but not cold all day.

Perhaps you should invest in a device called a thermostat?No free lunch, and no free laptop0

I never said I did not have one.
Maybe you should check it's working properly.
My heating is on 24 hours a day 365 days a year. It doesn't use as much gas as you would think as the thermostat controls the boiler. I set the thermostat to 20 degrees when I'm in, 16 at night and 10 when I'm out of the house.:footie:Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S)

The electronic thermostat decides whether we need the radiators or not. Currently on SP Jan17 fixed at £56 a month.
