What is a room thermostat?
... an explanation for householders. A room thermostat simply switches
the heating system on and off as necessary. It works by sensing the
air temperature, switching on the heating when the air temperature
falls below the thermostat setting, and switching it off once this set
temperature has been reached.
Turning a room thermostat to a higher setting will not make the
room heat up any faster. How quickly the room heats up depends on
the design of the heating system, for example, the size of boiler and
radiators.
Neither does the setting aff ect how quickly the room cools down.
Turning a room thermostat to a lower setting will result in the room
being controlled at a lower temperature, and saves energy.
