Default Correct position of thermostat for central heating

Such a thermostat should be placed in a location which reflects the
external temperature,


Being quite serious, that's outside,


It is indeed. If one has a system where weather compensation makes
sense then that is a good place for one of the sensors.

The net result is not bad except when SWMBO starts steam ironing in
there whilst watching TV. Then the heating to the entire house shuts
down. :-((


She does too much ironing:-) Tell her to relax.
