Title. We keep ours at 75F, parents do 77F, and in laws 68F. It made me curious what everyone else keeps theirs at?
Currently, it is 76F during non-sleeping hours, and 72F during sleeping hours.
I don’t have AC and haven’t really needed it this year. I’m way north in New Hampshire.
We keep the heat at 63-65f(about 17c) in the winter, but occasionally go up to 67 when it’s warmer out and the furnace doesn’t have to work as hard to keep it there.
75 summer, 71 winter. Would love to conserve more but my body is a picky jerk.
70F (21C) during the summer time, and usually its off during the winter (we just have the windows open, and might briefly use a space heater if its really really cold).
In fall and spring it just heavily depends on the day and how it feels.
Off.
It’s hot as balls outside though. Gotta have some AC going.
Exactly, I get swampass just thinking about being without AC in this heat
No AC here, only heating. So it is off during summer.
Hah, thermostat
I’m the top floor apartment
My AC is set to 70f, it’s currently 82f inside at about 0100.
My bedroom is 85f
If it could do the job I’d have it set to 75f and ideally keep it there but unfortunately I have to set it to 70 because the area near (like within a meter) the AC gets cold enough to get it to kick off any higher while the apartment cooks
I like to keep my home at 16°C (60.8°F) when possible. Summers are hell.

In which CGPGrey discusses ordering parts to replace inside of hotel A/Cs so that he set the room temp to 16º. Quite chilly, btw, why do you need that??
Why does anyone need any temperature? I find it most comfortable! I’ve also noticed sleep is a lot better when the air is a bit cooler. Anything above 18°C just makes me feel uncomfortably warm.
That sounds awesome!
76F to 78F in the summer.
68F in the winter.
My Dad does 85F summer and 65F winter though. I though I was being luxurious with my settings lol.
I do run a dehumidifier in the summer and a humidifier in the winter though. Humidity control is almost more important IMO for comfort.
In the summer: usually 78, but sometimes I’ll drop it to 75 if I’m feeling hot. We spend most of our time in the basement and most of the time it cools off at night enough to just open the windows.
In the winter: somewhere between 65 and 68. Our house can feel chilly pretty easily so I tend to bump the heat up a bit.
We don’t have a thermostat. We have storage heaters and criminally insufficient insulation. I’d like to keep the flat about 21C (69F), a little lower at night. I can only afford to keep the flat above 17C (62F). Cost of living crisis sucks.
18° in winter. 24° in summer.
However I would only put the heater or aircon on somewhere between 40-60 days a year and only for a couple hours. And often it’s just to take the chill out of the house or cool the bedroom before bed. I have a modern well insulated house which is a rarity in Melbourne or Australia in general, houses/apartments are built like shit here.
Australia has some of the worst built houses in the western world, especially houses built in the 20th century. I think the average was 0.5 stars out of 10. Thankfully we have the most amount of solar of any country so we are offsetting the crappyness.
House only has a traditional heating system with no temperature control. In summer I just drink a lot of water and wear short sleeves, in winter it’s the lowest setting that can keep me from freezing.
You could probably just replace the dumb thermostat with an electronic one that regulates by temperature if you want. They are quite simple.
Our heater is set to 60F in the winter.
If i want it warmer than that (usually) it’s up to me to keep the wood stove fired and fed!

Usually around 74F in the summer but I’ll bump it if the temps outside hit the mid 90s. 64 in the winter, I like it cold. I run a portable AC in the master bedroom during the summer while we sleep. Bit of a story there.
