As winter approaches, many are wondering whether they need to have the heating on all day
Money-saving guru Martin Lewis has given his take on the issue of whether it's more cost-effective to leave the heating on all day or not. Speaking on ITV show This Morning, the ever-savvy Mr Lewis shed some light on a matter that splits opinion. He said: 'They say it's better to only put the heating on when you need it. You pay to pump energy in as and when is needed, and to keep pumping it in constantly isn't efficient.
Another recounted: 'I live in a well-insulated new build so heating is on a timer with thermostat on 20C from 6am to 7am and 5pm to 8pm. I generally keep it off completely over the summer.' Echoing that, another added: 'My heating is set to 21C from 07.45 to 23.30 then 18C overnight but sometimes I manually increase the temp to 22.5C in the evening if my wife is feeling chilly. It resets to 21C at 7.45 the next day.
