Our saving grace is we have good quality double glazing throughout.
I guess whether or not it will work well enough is a function of how much total wattage you have available to put in (easily remedied by just installing more heaters), and then how good the insulation is will determine how long it lasts for.
Another one is the hot water. It will probably be a hot water tank that is heated at night by an immersion heater. Our's is 7kW I think, not sure on the cylinder volume. But any more than 3 showers in a day will mean luke warm water by the evening. I wouldn't be happy with the setup if there were more than 3 of us.
