Dishonest about dodgy rental housing feature (7,7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

central heating

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'housing feature' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'dishonest about dodgy rental' is the wordplay.
'dishonest' becomes 'cheating' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'dodgy' is an anagram indicator (a dodgy or wrong order of the letters).
'rental' with letters rearranged gives 'entral'.
'cheating' going around 'entral' is 'CENTRAL HEATING'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for central heating that I've seen before include "Domestic system" , "source of warmth" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
