Counted ours yesterday - we have 11. How many do you have including any gas-heated towel rails?

8! 5 bed house. The kitchen has wet underfloor heating. Bathrooms have electric underfloor heating + electric towel rails.

15 in 4 bed detached, but about 4 of them are constantly turned off.

Jxtina86 · 21/01/2024 12:09

5 + towel rail. 3 bed house - one in each bedroom, one in the lounge and one in the downstairs hall. It's a very compact house though!

6 in a 3 bed house - one in each bedroom, one in the bathroom, one in the downstairs hall, one in the living room.

No heating in the kitchen ( is it normal to have heating in the kitchen?) upstairs hall or downstairs toilet

This thread has made me realise we have fewer than average.

11

No rads on the ground floor.

Bonjovispjs · 21/01/2024 12:12

1, I live in a studio flat.

Daftasabroom · 21/01/2024 12:12

5 bed detached - no radiators. Wood burner downstairs, nothing upstairs.

PrawnDumplings · 21/01/2024 12:13

9 plus underfloor heating in 2 rooms.

Scampuss · 21/01/2024 12:14

9 radiators and 1 heated floor.

maudelovesharold · 21/01/2024 12:15

Oil for heating and hw, no gas to the property. 13 radiators (inc. towel rail) + underfloor heating in main bathroom. Only 6 radiators on, usually, unless the house is full (2 dc moved out and 1 at uni). The living room and utility have 2 radiators each, but we never have both on. I’m waiting for someone with a mansion to post with 30 Grin

7 in a 3 bed. Livingroom, hallway, kitchen, bedrooms and bathroom. I didn't realise not everyone has one in the kitchen. I've been tempted to get rid of it so I can put cabinets along that wall but was worried it would be too cold without it.

Beezknees · 21/01/2024 12:16
  1. Live in a flat - 2 bedrooms, 1 in hallway, 2 in open plan kitchen/living/dining area and 1 heated rail in bathroom. Mine are all electric though.
SophiaElise · 21/01/2024 12:16

12: 6 downstairs + extension, 6 upstairs + loft conversion

WormHoleInSpace · 21/01/2024 12:17

6 in a 2 bed .
It's not enough !

UseOfWeapons · 21/01/2024 12:17

11… including a heated towel rail. 5 doubles, and 1 that’s switched off, as it’s in the uninsulated garden room.

baileybrosbuildingandloan · 21/01/2024 12:24

6 in a 3 bed 3 storey mid terrace

TeachesOfPeaches · 21/01/2024 12:26

2 storage heaters in a 2 bed flat. Hate them

PonyPatter44 · 21/01/2024 12:28

9 in a very well-insulated 3 bed house.

4 downstairs, 3 in the bedrooms and 2 heated towel rails. We are open-plan downstairs, with a high ceiling, so without the good insulation it would be miserable and/or expensive. I've noticed that all our radiators are really small, and the one in the hall is a single.

AuntieMarys · 21/01/2024 12:28

13 in a 3 storey house

LaChienneDesFromages · 21/01/2024 12:29

12 and two sets of underfloor heating (kitchen and hallway) in a 5 bed, 3 reception room house.

We keep them all on as all rooms are used. Our heating bill is about four and a half million pounds a year.

CartingItAround · 21/01/2024 12:31

15 in 4 bed but we have 3 reception rooms and even one in the utility.
