Scooter, your response is emotional and impressionistic. The facts you are referring to are "Temperature Differentials"
If the temperature outside is 10 F and you have your thermostat set at 70 F, your furnace is overcoming a temperature differential of 60 degrees, right? If you dial down to 68, you have changed the differential by 2 F or 1/30th. If you gas bill is $150.00/monthly, you save 1/30th or $5.00. If you subtract the time you are at work and sleeping and only crank the heat up during the time you are around the house and the savings are reduced even more. I don't feel that it is a good purchase to be cold in my own home all month, (30 days of shivering) to save $5.00 or $3.00. I think it is misleading to project that their is big savings to be had by dialing down and selling out your own personal comfort without analyzing and quantifying those savings. Sooooooo, crank it up and be comfortable. Who are you saving it for?
If you want to hit the jackpot of heat energy savings, spend a few dollars taking care of the 500lb Gorilla of heat loss, air infiltration! Tiny gaps around windows, doors, foundations, electrical outlets, bath fans and heat ducts, just to name a few, can keep the heat you are paying for where it needs to be.

Why is roofing insulation necessary?
Because you are losing 25% of your heat through there! (un-doubleglaxed windows lose 10%, un-insulated cavity walls lose 35%) The current regulation is 10inches (250mm) although new builds are having 12inches put in. Basically, it's to save you money and to save the environment. An uninsulated roof is such a waste of energy and resources. If you have it insulated, your home will heat up quicker and when the heating switches off the heat takes longer to dissipate too. It also makes the upstairs cooler in the summer as the heat from the sun on the rooftiles stays in the loft and doesnt pass through the insulation thus you can sleep better. It works both ways.
