There are minimum standards....now. That builders and developers were dragged kicking and screaming to ("just throw another reverse cycle aircon on mate, she'll be right").

I've never lived in an insulated house. I've never lived more south than the subtropics and the coldest a house had been inside is 6 degrees C with a floor surface probably lower than that. The people down south have probably suffered more than me in some homes.

    I've lived in Warrnambool and Ballarat. I can confirm first hand that air temperatures inside the house have reached 4C, and I could see my breath 😭
