note
[Discusses hard-to-treat dwellings. Has archetype definitions and a useful glossary. Quotes: "Space and water heating account for a large proportion of domestic energy use. By 2050, buildings will need to be almost completely decarbonised," and "The vast majority of dwellings had a gas [including mains, LPG, bottled] fired heating system (20.7 million or 88%). The second and third most common heating systems were fuelled by electricity (8%) and oil (3%)," and "Building regulations state that thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs) must be present on all radiators (except in the room with the room thermostat) on new systems. When replacing a boiler, TRVs are required on at least the bedroom radiators and preferably on all (again with the exception of the room with the thermostat). TRVs can aid efforts to reduce energy consumption. They enable the occupant to control individual room temperatures and save on fuel costs by avoiding overheating commonly caused by manual valves," and "In 2020, most dwellings had a central heating system with radiators (90%)."]
