House takes over 2 hours to heat up
Anonymous user 28/02/2024 - 3.33 PM
Hello there, I moved into a property some months ago and the flat takes around over 2 hours to heat up. I definitely have insulation in my loft but somehow the heat escapes, I have a fire place that I have not used yet and behind my kitchen units, the walls and floors are quite exposed behind there so wondering if that's a cause or would it be the window gasket seals from inside and out have been worn out. Just require some advice as to how much will it cost for 1 Bay window, 6 big windows and 1 door glass to be replaced please, or could it be something else that is causing the loss of heat. Additional information - I live in a Victorian house converted flat. Found that there is cold draught coming in from behind the kitchen units and the fireplace in the living room. Unfortunately, I am looking for a cheaper solution to seal these two places. All radiators are burning hot when boiler is turned on and my windows are all double glazed.
