Each point is one hour of space heating. Lower and flatter is cheaper; well-set radiator systems sit around 35–42 °C at 0 °C outside.
Public system published by its owner on HeatpumpMonitor.org. Cycling (starts per hour) comes from the site’s 365-day statistic. Findings use installer rules of thumb; see methodology.
