Det kanske inte är helt rekommendabelt, då byggnader lätt skadas av fukt och mögel vid för låga temperaturer.
Men, enligt en ny undersökning av Savanta ComRes i England, där 2000 personer tillfrågats, planerar en av fyra att inte sätta på värmen i vinter.
Närmare sju av tio uppgav att de kommer att sänka temperaturen.
En av tio uppgav att de kommer att låna får att kunna betala elräkningarna.
”Nearly one in four adults plan never to turn their heating on this winter, polling suggests, as average energy bills are set to surge while the temperature drops over the coming months.
The survey of more than 2,000 UK adults found 23% would not turn their heating on at all over the winter months, with this figure rising to 27% among parents with children under 18.
In the poll, which was carried out by Savanta ComRes before the new price cap was announced, 69% of respondents said they would switch their heating on less, and one in 10 said they would take out a loan.
It comes amid resounding warnings that people are in for a dire winter, with the energy price cap set to rise by 80% by October, pushing the average household’s yearly bill up from £1,971 to £3,549.”
