So update time!
Ive been a busy bee over the last few days and spent what we could afford to try and solve our issue.
We have installed a door curtain over the porch door and got a better draft excluder in place. I don't mind the look of it actually, makes it look cosier.
We got that vent hole blocked up for next to no cost as we are fortunate enough to know a builder. However the most impactful change is we replaced the radiator with a type 22. All I can say is OMG the difference in heat output is insane!! It warmed the room up to 19c in 45 mins, compared to 4 hours with the last one! Its money well spent and now I'm a warm and happy soul 😊
Thanks for all in the help and input guys!8 -
