It isnt. I've been on a training course that shows the graphs of heat and gas used. The heated stats use less gas,
and keep the room at a steadier temperature than the standard on/off stats.

That though depends on the *site of the stat, and how well designed the placement of the radiators were in the first
place.


Nope, you always get a benefit.

The only real downside is that the system switches more.


and doesn't warm up from cold so fast.
