He has debunked a myth about the times when you should have your heating on at home
Households across the UK have long debated whether it is better to turn the heating on and off as and when you need it, or to keep it at a constant low temperature all day.
Speaking to Susanna, Martin said: “The general advice from the energy saving trust is that you have your heating on when you need it, and you turn it off when you don’t need it. The myth that it is cheaper to have it on all day is false. "But in most cases, you turn the heat on when you need it and turn it off when you don’t. It’s best to do it on a timer and a thermostat."When it gets cold, people turn their thermostat up, but if it’s set to 20 degrees, you don’t need to turn it up because you’re cold now. You’re just going to have to wait until it gets up to the temperature.”
