air conditioner on 76 vs 78 degress?

[Hammer]

i don't know about 78 to 76. but my first summer living in my new place i found out that the difference between 72 to 78 was about $250.

i keep mine set 79 from 3-9pm, and 80 from 9:01pm-2:59pm

With ceiling fans going this is the perfect comfort setting for me and the family.

and this is for Arlington Texas

Same here. Car, home, work. 68 degrees year round. I'm just hot-blooded I guess.

How anyone lives in their home during the summer in anything above 74-80 degrees F is beyond me. At that temperature, its hard to be comfortable unless you have many many fans blowing the air around and even then, with any exertion at all, you start to sweat and get uncomfortable.
