it's a male/female thing.
men's internal thermostats are set higher.

55 degrees and sunny outside? I don't need heat. My house stays in the 70s on a day like that. In fact, it's 57 and sunny here now and I may open a window.

At any rate, in the winter, my thermostat never goes above 68.

At 55, no air at all.

Summer I set mine for 78-82.

Winter it's 60-65.

I'm a flexible cheap ass.

funny you should mention this... first off... no silicone. saline only.
but, the saline does lower your body temp. so since surgery, i am colder because of them.

My heat doesn't go on until we have a couple of nights with frost. Then it is set to 68. Like LolaWiz my wife would prefer to have it set to 74-75 but she married my cheap a$$. :D

Normally like 67. But we shut it off on weekends and fire up our wood burning stove. That thing can keep our whole house warm on just a few logs every few hours.

Close the windows and put on a sweater. It's comfortable that way. A little chilly, but definitely no need for heat.

yes, most of the time. that is a side effect of the procedure. i am kinda self concious about it thoug, especially since i cannot wear a bra.

I like to keep the place just cold enough that my girlfriend looks good in a t-shirt with no bra on. LOL

65-70 is normal I would say.
