Heating

The heating in halls is controlled by central timers and thermostats. It is set to maintain a constant temperature of around 20°c during cooler months.

During the weekdays the heating is scheduled to be on for a few hours in the morning and again in the evenings when the hall is most occupied. At the weekends or during College Closure periods it is on more often. 

You can report any consistent under or over heating to your Hall Supervisor.

Use of space heaters Space heaters are banned in bedrooms except in limited circumstances where the building systems cannot provide temperatures within acceptable variations of the ranges stated. In this case, your hall team will provide a suitable heater for your use. These must be switched off when you leave the room for any period of time.
