Ours comes on in the morning at 7.30 and usually goes off after 3 hours as we then go out for our exercise. When we come in we put it on for an hours and light the wood burner for the ret of the day. Usually set at 19.

No heating overnight.
In the morning we turn it on when we have done ‘ chores’ as we don’t seem to need it while we are moving around.
Set about 20-21 but radiators have separate thermostats.

All our radiators have individual controls and there is no overall thermostat so I’ve no idea what temp we are at unless I look at the weather station which means mites indoor and outdoor temps.

We like it warm so I imagine it is probably at 22 at least.

I'm in a flat so kept warm by neighbours. lol

It is never on at night, ie goes off about 10.00pm and on at 6.00am

Depends on what we are doing. At the moment it’s higher than normal because we are sitting about a bit more. About 21.
Lower when we are being active.

I think it's set at 21C (in the hall) but we have thermostats on all radiators so the ones in the bedrooms are set at ❄

As hubby is unable to move about so he gets the temp he wants! I just strip!

Just curious to know what you all set your heating thermostat to?
OH is rather nesh and given half a chance would have the heating running quite high all day, I, a n the other hand, turn it down and put a woolly on.
What do you do?
