How common are arguments over the heating?

FAQ banner image

According to studies, heating arguments are very common during the colder winter months in the UK. Research finds that around a third of couples argue at least twice a day over the heating in these climes, with a projected 17 million ‘thermo-spats’ taking place weekly.

Most regularly, disputes occur over the temperature of the thermostat, which radiators warrant switching on in different rooms, or if the heating needs to be switched on at all, but many more reasons for quarrels exist.
