"The works went really well and I had no problems. My house looks lovely. The difference in the warmth of my home is amazing, I have turned my heating thermostat down from 22 to 15 degrees, it’s really noticeable how much of a difference the insulation has made to my home. "

I suppose the thermostat could be broken.

It is possible, I suppose, that although his thermostat was set to 22
he was losing so much heat that his house was only ever at, say, 12. In
which case 15 would now feel hot (to him).

On a similar line there is now enough waste heat from the occupants and
appliances that there is minimal requirement for additional heat. It
doesn't say what time of year that quote was taken either. And along with
the insulation were the windows/doors improved, reducing/eliminating
draughts.

lol, never ceases to amaze how people just can't grasp the concept of
thermostats. Fit their rads with TRVs as well, and their heads melt.

Surely that would indicate a malfunction of the TRV?

SWMBO doesn't understand thermostats. Or thermos flasks. Mine developed
a fault, resulting in cold soup. She said it must be letting the cold
in :-)

Very stratified air in their rooms.
