What do you leave your thermostat at?

[awfulwaffle]

So, lived through the texas tundra. Went through a months worth of gas basically in a week. So been avoiding using the heater if and when at all possible. So the other night, set it to 62(turned on a couple times overnight I believe). So the next day, roomate comes down and talks about how cold it was. Mentioned "it feels nice right now", thermostat said 64. 2 degrees lol. Cooking some dinner right now, showing 72 currently. Waiting for him to come down and complain that it's hot.

I think 69 is fine, and your mom doesn't mind either.

I never even read anything in this section, and came here randomly, and this made my day.

Got electric heat and shitty insulation in my house. February was pretty cold here, good stretch where is didn't get above freezing. Kept the house between 62&64. Anything higher and the heat was constantly running. It's only me so I just put on a pair of sweatpants and a sweatshirt and I'm fine.

Buy a space heater ya baby. Considering it was below freezing, 62 was like an island getaway.

I've had summers where it basically was running for 2 to 3 months, at 72. Even in the northern hemisphere the humidity and direct sunlight can roast yer ass.

Yup
Many days my AC will struggle to keep up with 70. I'm on the 2nd floor of a 2 family and I had to run all my ductwork through the attic. The ducts are insulated but I think I should have sized up on the air handler. I put a ceiling fan in each of the 3 bedrooms and the kitchen, and they don't stop running through the summer months.

 

[Avder]

71f in winter, 69f in summer. I find that typically keeps it at the 70 that I want.

 

[Gee Wally]

Winter.
First floor 70.
Second floor at night 64. Like it cool to sleep.

Summer.
First floor 72
Second floor at night 68.

Yup that’s what ours is at. Maybe a bit higher. Around 21 Celsius. We have a 2 year old and he gets cold easy, so usually we keep it decently warm in the house.

I have my Nest's heat-cool function set to 68-71

 

[Stealth JD]

78 during the day, 72 during the night. My Nest program changes the temperature throughout the day in that range.
