Anyhow, at my current house it is 55 and works perfectly well
You must have rather oversized rads?
Nope
they are tiny
The physical size depends on the demand in that area.
they are on all day
The house is well insulated
Why do you think that wouldn't work?
Anything can work. But there is an ideal figure for rad temp for best
efficiency.
Best efficiency
efficient in what way?
as far as the radiator is concerned is as hot as practical - the higher the
deltaT between radiator and the room air then the more it radiates.
If you have the heating on 24/7 then yes you can get away with low rad.
Which is what I do have
temperatures, but for fastest response where the heating is timed then
hotter is better.
I have no need for faster response. I want constant moderate temperature
