To let the sun rays flow in!

We tend to have doors and windows open quite a bit but heat gain in summer when it is 30C outside and heat loss in winter when it is cold are obviously significant although thermal mass does slightly hide the effect by taking a while to heat up or cool down but heat loss or gain is a function of the airflow and temperature and thermal mass doesnt reduce the actual energy loss.

Hope that makes sense!

Obviously you can have the heating or aircon on and windows wide open if the boiler is powerful enough 🙂
