Is your home warm/hot enough

[Mancity08]

So you have your heating on
do you feel warm enough ?

ours is on 22* and I’m cold 🥶
I have socks, pj bottoms and thermal top on

Yes it's warm enough. Not sure about the heating as it just comes on automatically when the temperature drops.

No heating here. Its not too chilly yet at 21 degrees, I'm using a heat pad on low on my back.

No heating on here, Edwardian semi with high ceilings, exposed floorboards and fewer walls downstairs than it ought to have, it can be cold but just checked the thermostat and it's 21 and comfortable

Spent two hours in the hairdressers this morning, cut, manicure and pedicure. Did not want to take my shoes and socks off. It was Baltic. The girl brought in a heater which helped a bit.

Then back home in cold car, cold house. Held out until 6pm because hubby said it was hot, lit the log burner then. Took dinner into the sitting room because kitchen was Baltic. Hubby still in a teeshirt. 🙄

23 degrees in my house, no heating, live in central England.

If you're cold it's your body telling you to get up and move around!

The warmest our house ever gets is about 16 degrees!

We haven’t got the heating on as it says it’s 20.5 inside at the moment. Certainly feels cooler than that so I’ve put an extra layer on.

I don’t think you’re weird. Second floor maisonette with massive east and west facing windows. Soul destroying in the summer because it’s like a greenhouse, but cheap in the winter. So the bedroom is currently 21 degrees (no heating on and windows open) and it’s 11 degrees and pissing down outside. I’ve even got my fan on in there.

This isn’t a boast because trust me, from March until the end of September I get the fear.

The temp in my house is 23. My heating is off . My house is 2 years old.

Freezing here! West coast of Scotland. House is sitting at about 16 degrees. If it was just me I’d have the heating going but DS (4yo) has a bit of eczema and the heating is the worst trigger for it so we hold off using it as much as possible 🥶

17 here, and I have windows and back door open.

Not had the heating on yet but lit first fire of the year this evening. It is pouring down and very windy here. We need better insulation.

My house is 15c /16c according to my thermometer. I'm warm enough tbh.

I have no idea what the temperature is . E have quilt downstairs for the sofa, we have storage heaters so once on they are on

Not sure what temperature mine is at. The heating is set to come on if it drops below 16 degrees and the heating hasn't come on so it must be higher than that. I am not cold.

Not got heating on. I'm warm enough.

Heating doesn't go on until December. I put put extra layers on if I get cold.

I live alone though so can't justify it.

Just why? That's utterly miserable, I certainly wouldn't have laughing emojis in that situation

It's 22c inside and there's no heating on. Modern house with good insulation, it's been 17c outside and wet. The stat is set to 20c. We're SE so generally warmer. We do have throws for the winter.

West of Scotland in a draughty Edwardian semi that’s more like a wind tunnel. Hall thermostat came on at 10 degrees this morning. Struggles up to about 14 on a good day. Duvets and blankets over our knees when sitting still. Sleep under two duvets and a blanket. I wear a hat in bed.

Ours is about 22° C and is plenty warm enough. We've had the heating on for a bit to dry some clothes.

I've put mine on because my face is cold and it makes me feel miserable. I've decided this year I'm going to have a warm nose! Today I had it on for one hour, which brought 16.5 up to 18. Between 9 and 5, when I'm stuck glued to my desk, 18 degrees is what I'm going for.

Very chilly here (north Scotland), we've also just had heating updated so are getting to grips with it.

We have the thermostat set to 20c and the heating clicks on when needed (although never overnight).

@Mancity08 if you're heating your house to 22c and are still frozen, have you ever had your thyroid levels tested? That was one of the main symptoms for me, I was always cold and spent most autumn/winter literally hugging the radiator.
