I live in a four bedroomed, mostly ancient, detached property in an exposed position.
There is some, probably 20% double glazing, the remaining windows being 100+ year old sash windows or leaded light. Walls are generally solid & thick, and the roof is exceptionally well insulated.
Evohome works very well for me but I have been considering target temperatures for two bedrooms & a bathroom which are only used when we have guests, probably 3-8 nights a month in winter. They are currently set to a constant 14 degrees, which they maintain with radiators warming up a few times every day to achieve this. I think I've got it about right but your suggestions would be welcome.
One thought is to lower the target to, say 10 degrees, and see whether the room temperature drops to 10 degrees, or settles at a higher temperature as a result of the adjoining rooms being at a higher temperature.
Thanks in advance.
