“…The latest findings on potential overheating in UK housing (Tillson et al, 2013) show that 99% of housing will be at medium to high risk if average summer temperatures rise by 1.4 o C. There are numerous studies on climate change adaptation for UK housing (DCLG, 2012;Gupta and Gregg, 2013;McLeod et al, 2013;NHBC Foundation, 2012;Porritt et al, 2012) which suggest various positive interventions to address this risk, including guidance on glazing ratios and solar shading alongside good insulation levels. Equally there is a variety of thermal comfort (Hwang et al, 2009;Lomas andKane, 2013, Spataru andGillott, 2010;Soebarto and Bennetts, 2014) and heating practice studies (Gram-Hanssen, 2010, Heubner et al, 2013 which focus on the user, but there is relatively little literature which refers to the stratification of temperatures in housing as part of these overheating scenarios and comfort practices.…”
