Poll: what temperature is your house? Are you cold?

[Deleted member 4644]

What is your house temp? What are you wearing? And, are you at all cold right now?

Mine is 69, I have jeans and a t-shirt, and I'm feeling a bit chilly.

 

[vi edit]

It's set at 70 but I have the heat turned off. I actually have some windows and doors open to help cool it down a bit. It's a very pleasant 60 degrees here. I played basketball outside today in a tshirt and shorts 🙂

65 and not chilly at all. Im also fat so that helps.

Weak. 61 set here so it rarely goes off (CA). Temp is around 61-62 indoors.. it's a little cold.

Most people set theirs at 65 or up and it's kinda sad. I'm in a polo shirt and jeans so maybe thats why I'm a little chilled. My roommate loves to set the thermostat at 70 though, and so our apt is always toasty, but I love returning home to the cold...

:laugh: :beer:

The thermostat is set to 20.5 degrees C at home. Never hot or cold, ask the wife about that 😛

About 64F down here but I hide in my "home office" where there's carpet and my PC which helps make it 69F right now. When my wife is outside watching tv, she uses a blanket.

It's 72.1º in my room right now, and I'm wearing a jacket.

Aw, let her in the house 🙁

Jeans and a t-shirt, about 20ºC.

55°... but that's because everyone is gone and we had to set it as low as possible without pipes freezing. We normally keep it around 62°. Seems cold, but out of 4 people, we are rarely home due to school so its turned to 62 most of the day and night, and no one hangs out downstairs (all bedrooms are 2nd or 3rd floor) even when home, so if its ~62 downstairs, its a couple degrees warmer on 2nd floor, and even warmer on 3rd floor, plus we have computers to keep us toasty. And finally, we just wear a swearshirt or whatever. I mean it's Houghton, Michigan, no way in hell is it feasible to have the downstairs a toasty 70° all winter. 🙂 Ah, poor college students!

haha, what's wrong with the blanket ? But seriously... I wouldn't leave the tv outside in case of rain.

 

[Kalvin00]

Yeah, she can still see it through the window...

I usually don't turn the heat on unless the temperature goes down to about 50F or less, but I'm originally from a much colder climate. I just put a sweatshirt on and suck it up.

 

[Atheus]

I cannot comprehend your primitive temperature scales.

It is cold.

 

[Jeff7]

It's about 74F in here. I prefer it warmer. If it gets much below that, my hands start to get so cold they feel a bit numb.

Back home it's about the same, maybe warmer in the basement. We've got a wood pellet furnace now. Prior to its installation a few years ago, we had electric heat. Expensive as hell, and the basement was still always cold. We tried coal and a standard wood stove, but we had such a strong downdraft that it could blow out a match, so we'd always get lots of smoke in the house when trying to refuel a fire. Many chimney experts had a look a the place, but none could reverse the downdraft. The pellet stove has a contained circulation system - it uses a fan to draw air in through a pipe from outside, and another one to force the smoke back out another pipe. Draft is no longer a problem, heating is much cheaper than with electricity, and the wood pellets are made from waste sawdust from sawmills. So the only fossil fuels we use for heating now are burned at the electric company, which powers the fans in the furnace.

about 20C. but it's night and my trusty Athlon XP-M helps keep the temp up.
