What is your thermostat set at?

[Eli]

50ºF - Off.

 

[jadinolf]

Not bragging but I have not used heat since December 5, 2004. Simply not needed very much here.

 

[MikeyIs4Dcats]

66

 

[iamwiz82]

67 during the evening - 60 at night and when at work - 64 during the weekend

 

[ultimatebob]

65... Which isn't enough. My old house is pretty drafty, and 65 feels like 60 in most rooms

 

[bonkers325]

living room @ 62, bedrooms @ 68-72ish depending on how much of a draft there is in the apartment

Same here... I'd have it at 67 or colder, but the 14 month old wouldn't do so good.

Living in SoCal, you don't have to worry about such punny bills like gas, electric, or water. Its your interest only mortage that's breaking the bank.

We have a woodstove, so when the temperature gets below about 74, we think we're going to die from hypothermia.

I read somewhere that it actually costs more in fuel to keep shifting the temperature up and down so many degrees. It is more energy efficient to keep the temp steady. Not sure if that is true.

It definitely helps - noticable difference in my gas bills when I put it in.

Heat transfer is a function of temperature difference - smaller temperature dfifference = less heat loss. And your furnace is more efficient for long runs then short.

68 during the day, 64 at night.

 

[xcript]

20C

 

[SZLiao214]

55, but the dorm really only goes down to about 65.

 

[mrrman]

69 at night only, days it is turned off

 

[EagleKeeper]

70 because of the grandkid.

 

[CheesePoofs]

50 right now (ie, its off). Maybe it'll go up to 60ish when it gets cold out. Although I have no idea if those temps are even close to accurate, the thermostats we have are old.

 

[TwinkleToes77]

anywhere from 18-20 during the day and 22 from 5pm-bedtime

 

[RadioHead84]

we have ours at 63. Its a bit cold but whatever. Thats why slippers and blankets are for.

 

[FeuerFrei]

threescore and seven degrees

 

[BurnItDwn]

I keep it 63 for just me and my cat. When I have company over I will turn it up to like 66 to 68 though cause I'm such a nice guy.

 

[NutBucket]

Car is set to 73 I don't need to set a thermostat at home. Gotta love LA.

 

[glugglug]

I don't use the heater. Ever. The windows are wide open. I get more than enough heat coming through the walls from neighboring apartments. In fact, the air conditioner is on high right now. Outside temp is 46F and it's raining.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

We haven't set it yet, but the hour temperature is currently seventy-one degrees.
