My reference thermostat is set at 21.0 C and will remain so. The house is super insulated so I can do that.

There are now rumours circling, no they aren't vultures, that some adjustments might be made via various tax exemptions so all may not be lost. The rumours that started these rumours are whispers about a future election and the effect that may have on personal futures. And fortunes. Greening. Whatever one feels about the unimaginable cost of Greening, I'm sure some way could be found to mitigate those costs in favour of the supply of energy. We are after all sitting on oceans of coal and gas and other sources. If it is such an urgency and, taking other world wide examples of sensible management into account, surely a middle way is better. In the general run of things we are miniscule in the effect we have. Why do we voluntarily impoverish ourselves before world-wide despots, who are aching to see us fail, have a laugh.

My son is renting in Surrey in a new build completed about 6 months ago. He says the background temperature in his room is 18c with just his PC running and can go as high as 21/22c with the heat pump. So, I agree, the UK should be investing in good insulation for all new builds and properties capable to accommodation additional insulation.

That's probably because most thatched cottages are privately owned, so have their own insurance cover.

It's actually a house as opposed to flats and there is no cladding. It's a custom build for letting, built to a very high standard. The designer kitchen is unbeliveable. Do most thatched cottage owners donate to the governing party and have lobyists at Westminster? I am not suggesting anything, just thinking aloud for a moment.

Sorry your last paragraph is beyond my understanding, Ive tried but had more success with changing/not my sidelight bulb. Chris.S. P.S. my combiboiler has just gone kaput so I am sort of interested in everything.

In addition, we lack organisation, and leave everything until it is too late, or a national emergency, the government cares little for ordinary people's wellbeing, choosing instead to bury head in sand. Result is cold people. |
