House is warm from daytime stuff I guess, cooking etc. I had the heat on this morning and it went to the 60s, so house won’t drop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 3 thermostats are set at 68. If I even cracked the widows it would be too chilly and the furnace would go on after a short period of time. I get yelled at all winter for keeping the temp inside too low with 3 females in the house. A few more weeks and the pollen in the air means no windows open .

We dropped 10K on windows two years ago and it makes a difference in the cold season, but also warms things up quickly with direct sunlight.

WinterWolf Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Everybody’s temps for their home is super subjective. If I’m relaxing in the house 68-69 is comfortable for me. Anything colder than that, and it’s a lil chilly for my liking if I’m just lounging around. Night time 65-67 range is perfect for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t have kids and spend 6-7 months a year in the cold . So to you 60 inside in winter is comfortable. Families change things .. as do jobs and body types . We will keep it at 70 at times in height of winter cold . And the AC is also set at 68 in summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A breeze. It feels and smells like the woods, evergreens lining the property. I just love fresh air. Not that the indoor air is bad... there's just something about a bit of environmental air inside a dwelling to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If folks prefer it hotter, so be it. Doesn't matter at all, do what feels right. But by installing A/C in April, it gives a different signal that one doesn't like it warmer. That's something done by someone who hates being uncomfortably hot. You want to be 68F and dry 365/7/24 a year. A narrow range of air temperature to live in, I prefer more of a range throughout the seasons. Everyone is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
