What's that on the dog scale?

If I can't sit comfortably in shorts and a T all year round it's too cold.
Hive is currently set at 25 degrees and heating is on 24/7.The Hive sensor/thermostat is on the Stairs as that's the coolest part of the house Wife complains and says put a jumper on.I reply it's the 21st Century and we have heating so I don't have to
When I get up for work at 05:00 or get home off nights at 05:45 I like the house to be warm thank you very much!
Why live in a cold house

you must be rich able to squander all the money to heat up a place like that

Houses insulated to modern standards and heated by condensing gas boilers are probably far more efficient that previous generations, even if heated to the mid 20Cs.
After all, it isn't the room temperature which costs the money, but the rate of heat loss to the outside over the whole house.

But to get back to the point of science. The rate of heat loss is directly proportional to the difference in temperature. i.e the higher the temperature of an object, the more heat energy it loses to the surroundings for any given amount of insulation.<snip>
