How hot is too hot?

[TickTockMan]

What temp do you like your home to be?



For me 55 to 60 Fahrenheit is great and anything 70 or higher kills me.

67 is comfy for me. i have high ceilings and try to keep my ceiling fans on to try to keep the heat on the main living level.

My apartment is whatever temperature it decides to be. The radiator hardly ever works properly.

I don't mind the heat. Right now in my bedroom it's 85 degrees. The window is open and it's breezy and I have a fan on. I usually turn my AC to 82 so that I don't use so much energy. Last winter I didn't use my heat at all. Even the few nights that were in the 40's overnight.

The furnace is set at 20 during the day. I turn it down to 18 at night.

 

[Elwood]

I do not like the heat. In the summer I have ac and in the winter I set my thermostats to 15C which is around 62F.

 

[Alistair]

We keep the heat at 68 when awake, and down to 62 at night, and that's with wearing sweats to bed. I'd be freezing at 55!

 

[CudDULL]

I hate the heat but my roommate hates the cold so my apartment its around 78 F but i like when the outdoor temperature is around 68 F

 

[Ranchman]

I like the house around 70 F during the day but I do turn it down to 60 at night. If I ever forget to I'll wake up sweating - I love a cool bedroom.

anything over 30 degree C is a bit too warm.

Anything under 15 degree C is a bit cold.

^ Me too, or close to that -- 71 is my ideal temperature for the winter, and 74 in the summer. One great thing about living alone is no "thermostat wars"!

 

[hotdog1846]

It just occurred to me, the irony of this thread being under "Hot Topics"...

78 to 80. In my area the summer temps hot 110 to 127, so any cooler costs a fortune. Winter time I just accept whatever because my old central air uses resistance heating that uses 3 times the a/c mode.

The Colorado house t-stat is set at 67 for heat and 75 for cooling. After I get the humidifier running for the winter the heat setting might go to 66; more humid air feels warmer

When we are in Michigan we don't have or need cooling; the heat in winter is set for 60 upstairs and 65 downstairs. Even at that rather cool setting the old Monstrosity heating bill three winters ago ran about $400/month.

Years ago before we put in NGHW heat a now deceased family member owned the place she had Oil space heating. Back in the early 80's she was paying $800/month on the budget plan

I live with my grandad, so not freezing is nice.......

 

[kevbo]

I like the cold, so usually the house is at about 60...

 

[Kester]

Around 18-21

 

[looseliam]

65 deg. Farenheit year-round.

 

[jizzeater]

It has to be warm. I'd say 75 degrees. If I'm sitting around I start shivering if it gets too cool. I have space heater near my desk.

 

[talbot57]

I hate the cold, usually have the temp at around 75, but switches off at night
