Government Wants Radiator Heat in Homes Lowered
In the News
So the government wants all radiator temperatures in peoples homes reduced by 10% to meet climate change regulations and the homeowners to foot the cost of installing heat pumps instead of boilers, at the same time as doing away with insulation grants !!
What world do they live in ?
The problem is they want to take away the option of making it higher and everyone to start replacing their boilers with heat pumps despite the extra costs and problems
Its like electric vehicles, they are supposed to be less polluting , granted there are no fumes coming out of the exhausts but there are other pollutents and battery disposal issues as well as continual manufacturing of the batteries as they only last so long
Maybe these issues will be resolved in the future but not at the present time
Heres an independant article showing what the comparison is and the conclusion
I did see other articles supporting electric vehicles but at the end they were promoting the vehicles to sell

Kill everybody off through hypothermia, what a good idea. Have they any idea what 'heat pumps' involve (probably looked at by someone with loads of money and lots of space). Air heat pumps can be noisy and require electricity to run and aren't as efficient below 0 degrees. Ground heat pumps take up all the garden and are very expensive to install. What are the plans if you live in a property with no outside space?
Yes L , the government and its think tank , about as useful as a chocolate tea pot at a chimpanzees tea party, maybe this is them at the parliamentary canteen
TerenceMealing not possible, they're sitting at a table using plates and spoons and not fighting.
