    Okay,
    Curious question. If I turn off the radiators in certain rooms of the house, does the heat from other rooms in the house naturally radiate to the cold areas of the house...
    What I mean, is warm air drawn to cold air!?

    to a small extent ya. but you end up with a cold room being cold and a warm room feeling draughty and not so warm

    So does it make more sense to keep radiators on it all rooms, just on really low in rooms not in use?

    I would have thought it best to have the radiators on at a very low heat.
