I've always had my heating set to go OFF at 10pm and it currently comes on if I'm home at 7am but with it below zero outside the house temp drops to around 12.5c and then takes hours to warm up again, it's currently 17c and the heatings been on 3hrs.

So I'm wondering that now I have a Tado smart thermastat whether I should schedule it not to drop below a certain temperature during the night maybe 15c?
Like Paul, I also have Hive.

Ours runs on a schedule to have the house heated to 18c by 6am which is when I'm generally up and about, from half eight in the morning till five at night it's set to 15c and then from five till ten PM its set to 18c then back to 15c until it needs to start heating the following morning.

IIRC Hive also has frost protection and it kicks in automatically at either 5c or 8c can't remember
