During the colder months we set it to 16c then just tweak it up when we get in.
I don’t know if it’s more economical to let the temp drop and then re heat from low or to maintain the reasonable temp and raise to 21/22?

You don't stop playing when you get old - You get old when you stop playing!
So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with.

I think its down to how well the house is insulated. If well insulated then less likely you will need to keep the heating on during the day whereas's if the house cools quickly then you might want the heating ticking over. I imagine letting the house freeze then the boiler will need to work harder for longer to get the temp back up, swings and roundabouts in terms of energy use as the boiler has been used less during the day against being on all day to keep the temp up. Don't know really.
Tim.
