A kitchen isn't the ideal place for an all house thermostat given
temperatures can be very high in there when cooking.

If the household congregates in there during the morning (when the C/H

later in the day ...

Then the TRVs in the kitchen area should cope? They do here.

Surely the whole idea of central heating is that places like the bathroom
are at a decent temp when you use them? Not just the living areas?

a great many, many years ago, someone asked on Any Questions: "If you could
only have central heasting in one room, which room would it be?"
only one of then panel thought it an odd question,

The new house I was brought up in, during the early 60's only had
central heating in the upstairs and downstairs halls. The best choice
of just one of those would obviously be the downstairs one.
