The 21° in the bedroom and dressing room are unfortunately also a compromise, the large bathroom is directly adjacent to the dressing room, separated by a sliding door. I have found in multiple attempts that when I turn down the bedroom and dressing room enough to make it really cooler, the dressing room then draws energy from the bathroom floor. So if I want the bathroom to be on average between 21.5° and (sometimes) 23°, I must not turn down the adjacent rooms too much.
At some point, however, I also reached the point where I no longer care about every single kWh without torturing myself and the family. Thanks to photovoltaics and storage, the past heating season was practically free, we have an all-in electricity purchase of 5000 kWh for 2019 and fed-in 6300 kWh. And that with 5 people in 2 complete households.
Of course, it would be nice to need even less... but maybe I should keep things in perspective.
Of course, I’m not concerned about every single kWh either, but it is the first winter in the new house, and I want to achieve the best possible setting. Efficiency is important to me, that’s why we have a new expensive heating system.
We’re also going to do photovoltaics or at least solar, really great with your result.
