It’s one of the great domestic debates: one partner turns it up, the other sneaks it down. But there’s real science behind the “thermostat wars.” In this episode of the Homeowners’ Q&A Podcast, we explore why men and women experience heat differently and what that means for heat pump design, running costs and comfort in the modern, energy-efficient home.

We’re joined by Briony Price, Kirsten Campbell-Morris, Rhiannon de Wreede and Barry Sharp.

It’s honest, funny and surprisingly revealing. A deep dive into the intersection of comfort, design and biology, with some domestic truths every homeowner will recognise.

When a heat pump fails, the cracks in the system (both the installation and the wider industry) become brutally clear. Mars sits down with Richard Burrows (Pirate Heating Supplies) to pick apart a system that never worked optimally, explore why so many UK installs fall short and what happens when your system fails.
