Actually you are right. Superglue the thermostat and boiler switch, that'll stop her meddling.Originally posted by psychocandy View PostBit gutted about the thermostat explanation. I was sure I was right and wife was stupid.
I'm forever telling her the thermostat is there so that the temp is what you want and that turning it up higher just makes it too hot inside regardless of the temp outside.
The other poster is also right in a way, that it will heat the place quicker. However the mistake is to alter the thermostat at all.
A central heating system is most efficient when left on and regulated by the thermostat. Any plumber will tell you it saves much more energy, topping up the heat in a home in dribs and drabs, rather than leaving a house to cool completely, then having to heat it back up again.Comment

There are a small list of things that any woman knows she can pick a pointless fight about. The toilet seat and the thermostat are two of them.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment
