It does!!!!!!!!!! The upstairs then is much more well insulated, warmer

and
consumes less fuel to heat. The upstairs rooms benefit greatly by heavy
insulation in the loft.


Do I need to do the sums again for
you to demonstrate the point?


Well do them by having a before and after of the ground floor and the 1st
floor. Then see how much fuel is saved in each. I bet the 1st floor saves
more fuel. Then there is superior cooling of the 1st floor and higher
comfort conditions.

It doesn't use it in the first place if the temperature is lower.

For the ground floor, the heat calculation is generally what passes to
the first floor and may be taken off of the local heating requirement
of the first floor.
