According to new research released today by the Energy Saving Trust, around a third of UK households are overheating their homes. This means that they are collectively squandering up to £332 million a year as well as wasting 2.8m tonnes of CO2 a year.

31% of UK householders are keeping their thermostats up so high that their homes are hotter than the average summer temperature in many Mediterranean destinations ranging between 22-30 degrees.
