Modern, perhaps?


Large area of bifolds and 3 roof lights, all South facing, does trap a
lot of heat very quickly on a sunny day.


Quicker than a thermostat can shut the heating down?


No-one is saying that the CH won't switch off, only that it is a choice
between heating the house for a few hours or putting up with the cold
until solar gain warms it up a few hours later anyway.
