Fine tuning the radiators in your house

Our kitchen is always cold, we had another radiator put in before christmas and it does make a difference, but its still the coldest room in the house. We also had one put in our main room lounge / dining room, its walk through. This room get quite warm easily now.

Also upset is always quite warm.

However, we've started putting the heating on at night as our monkey nearly set the house on fire with his oil filled radiator, which we got rid of. We have a wireless thermostat which we put in our room so we don't have to turn our radiator off every morning and so we don't get heated to a crisp each night.

My wife has suggested (not sure where she got the idea, maybe she talked to the plumber) that we turn down some of the radiators and leave the kitchen radiators on full. Thus making the heat around the house for levelled out.

The upstairs ones would be turned down a lot and the lound / dinner and other rooms less so.

Has anyone tried this?
