A ‘thermo-spat’ is a disagreement or argument in a household that occurs about heating-related problems in the home. This could be due to a dispute over the temperature a thermostat may be set to, whether the heating should be switched on at all, which particular radiators should be turned on in which room, and other potential qualms.
According to studies, a third of the UK population will fall out at least twice a day over heating issues of some description in the colder months of the year. For a better understanding, explore our article, Thermo-spat – why do we argue over the heating?
