What is a Room Thermostat?

3.1

A room thermostat simply switches the heating system on

and off based on room temperature. It works by sensing

the air temperature, switching on the heating when the air

temperature falls below the thermostat setting and switching

it off once this set temperature has been reached.

Turning a room thermostat to a higher setting will not make

the room heat up any faster. How quickly the room heats up

depends on the design of the heating system, for example,

the size of the boiler and radiators. Neither does the setting

affect how quickly the room cools down. Turning a room

thermostat to a lower setting will result in the room being

controlled at a lower temperature, and saves energy.

The heating system will not work if a time switch or

programmer has switched it off. The house insulation quality

is a key factor in heating control.

The way to set and use your room thermostat is to find the

lowest temperature setting that you are comfortable with,

and then leave it alone to do its job. The best way to do this

is to set the room thermostat to a low temperature—say

18°C and then turn it up until you are comfortable with the

temperature (20°C is the usual preferred set point). You won't

have to adjust the thermostat further. Any adjustment above

this setting will waste energy and cost you more money.

If your heating system is a boiler with radiators, there may

only be one room thermostat to control the whole house (but
