Summer when overnight doesn't drop below 70F: 75F first and second floor, 80F on third floor
Summer when overnight drops below 70F: All window open.
Winter: 58F during the day when we're at work, 63F when we get home, 60F overnight.
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.
In the winter, 68, 69 if I'm particularly cold, In the summer I don't turn on the AC unless I'm absolutely dying, and then it only goes to 77. I'm a lizard, I love the heat, but I also hate paying high gas bills.
We donβt have a thermostat. We have storage heaters and criminally insufficient insulation. Iβd 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.
73 day, 70 night.
I prefer it a little cooler, but my apartment isn't insulated for shit so anything less and the ac basically never turns off.
Hasn't turned off a whole lot with heat waves lately.
I do 76F in the summer for AC and 68F in the winter for heating. Try to use minimal heating and air and still maintain a comfortable range. Can get expensive if working the system too hard. If it wasn't a matter of cost I'd leave it on 72F all the time.
Evaporative coolers are great if you live where you can use one, much cheaper to run and they can work pretty good as long as humidity isn't too high. I had one in a house I lived in before along with a regular AC system. It was a good to have and saved a lot on the electric bill. If it was dry enough out the AC unit was not needed.
Haven't used a heat pump before and don't know much about them. If they work as well and cost less to operate that would be a good option, but I wouldn't use one if it's a downgrade in performance. Rather pay for the comfort.
65F/19C. Fans in summer, sweaters in winter.
We live in Seattle. There is no thermostat.
21 in summer, though it hardly ever kicks in with the awesome isolation we have.
23 in winter, cause I like it toasty.
23.5 in day and 22.5 at night. For summer, at least. I realized too much AC really affects my joints. Too little is unbearable. Humans are a fickle bunch...
Might for 22.5 day 21.5 night for winter.
74F during the day, 72F at bed time.
70-74F during summer, 65-68F during winter.
18Β° in winter. 24Β° 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.
During AC season, 71 during the day, 68 at night. Geothermal FTW.
24.5Β°C
Only have heating, no AC. So 19C over the day and 16 at night for the winter
72 during the day and 68 at night.
76 in the summer and 68 in the winter
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!
Summer time - 75F during the day, 72F at night. Winter time - 68F during the day, 62F at night.
I live in the Midwest US
The simplified version
Summer: Day: 76Β°F (24Β°C), Night: 73Β°F (22Β°C)
Winter: Day: 78Β°F (25Β°C), Night: 73Β°F (22Β°C)
19C in the winter, around 28C in the summer. It helps that in the winter I just keep a space heater near me (I get cold and turn it on at what a thermometer in my room calls 19C).
In the summer? I have no AC at my house but it doesn't usually go above 77 - 80 on it's own. It's in a unique part of the city where we're surrounded by the woods and trees which provide a lot of shade and cool the air. Also the house is built into the side of a mountain and surrounded by massive retaining walls, so the first floor is basically a story underground. Our bedroom is also on the first floor, so I don't really go upstairs except to do laundry.
In the winter, usually about 64 - 67. It goes down to 60 during the day on a schedule or whatever.
68F-72F in summer 66ish in the winter. In live in the South East United States and humidity is a bitch
I have an evaporative cooler it really doesn't have temperature control. It is kind of whatever the outside temperature is -20f degrees with 75% humidity.
I'd like to have it at 71f, but it's not going to happen. After a $$$ AC repair i can now get down to 74 instead of 78. Usually around 68-70 in the winter. How come it's always so hot indoors when i go to places with a cold climate?
75 summer, 71 winter. Would love to conserve more but my body is a picky jerk.
