muckynees Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Maybe but when I'm really cold, I turn the temp up and when I'm toastie warm or comfortable, I turn the temp down, I've always been under the impression its a more economical way to run the central heating?!?!?!

Obelix Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Mine went off end of March, not been on since then. It usually only runs Nov to March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biotechpete Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Mine is still set for 30mins morning and evening. It doesn't actually come on a lot of the time because the thermostat is fairly low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazarus Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 We've not had our heating on for a month to six weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horribleblob Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I switched off the central heating on 11th January (the day my daughter returned to uni after the Christmas/New Year hols). I don't feel the cold as much as she does. When she came back, briefly, for Easter, she had to wear four layers to my two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiteowl Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 To join in with the rest of butch brigade, I turned my heating off in 1972 and have never had it back on since. Seriously though, yes - it's been a cold spring/early summer this year and my heating has been back on. Was scraping ice off the car last week (in May !!!) :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it just defeats the point of having a thermostat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmyR Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I just wear something called a jumper that helps my body to retain it's own heat. In winter I wear something called 2 jumpers. Crazy. For reference our annual gas bill is about £300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandem Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I just wear something called a jumper that helps my body to retain it's own heat. In winter I wear something called 2 jumpers. Crazy. For reference our annual gas bill is about £300. I wear extra layers when its really cold, but I still find I need the heating on because my hands and nose are so cold, cant keep them warm with jumpers. Never have the heating on in the morning.
