Hi,
Watched 'Room to Improve' on RTE last night. Lovely extension to house. Lots of glass, loads of light, great view, etc, etc. But surely the heating bill will shoot up big time for such a design - unless triple glazing was used I suppose (which I doubt because the couple were so budget conscious). No sign of heavy cold-excluding curtains last night (would spoil the shots for TV) but perhaps the solid fuel stove in the middle of the space will be going full time come winter (or even current summer !).
Anyway, I was interested to know if anyone has similar large areas of glass and what experience is with heating.
Thanks
