Title. We keep ours at 75F, parents do 77F, and in laws 68F. It made me curious what everyone else keeps theirs at?

Summer for ac it is about 76f

75f if it gets extra humid for some reason then we’ll push it down by one degree

But at night 78f for the ac.

Although if it’s nice outside we’ll turn it off and open windows.

Winter it’s 69 or 72 for during the day depending on a few factors. If I’m just sitting working in the computer it’s closer to 72 but up and moving around maybe 69.

66 f at night

Btw I’m in Minnesota US.

I generally try for 18-19c in winter, and I usually see 24c in summer, though the AC can bring this down to about 21 most of the time. With the AC off, it's more like 26-28.

I'd keep the windows open more, but climate change has been causing massive wildfires where the air is too unhealthy to breathe....

In the summer: usually 78, but sometimes I'll drop it to 75 if I'm feeling hot. We spend most of our time in the basement and most of the time it cools off at night enough to just open the windows.

In the winter: somewhere between 65 and 68. Our house can feel chilly pretty easily so I tend to bump the heat up a bit.

73 in spring, summer, and fall. 67 in the winter.

I let visitors change it at will, but I always keep it above the minimum temperature for water to evaporate as a temperature reference.

24°C / 75°F during summer, 20°C / 68°F during winter.

Usually around 74F in the summer but I'll bump it if the temps outside hit the mid 90s. 64 in the winter, I like it cold. I run a portable AC in the master bedroom during the summer while we sleep. Bit of a story there.

[–] RyanLiu@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I do 26c, my partner likes 24c.

[–] deadcatbounce@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Programmed for 19C during the day and ramping up to 21C at night.

16C flat at all other times.

[–] AlternateRoute@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

Summer Cooling 22C - 23 C (71.6F to 73.4) in Winter Heating 20 C- 20.5C (68 F - 68.9 F) Since we have large summer and winter seasonal temperature differences we are all dressed more warmly in the winter so a lower over set point.

[–] Notnotmike@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

We do somewhere between 72 and 76. But at night in the peak of summer we'll bump it down to 70. Our bedroom is on the top floor and can often be several degrees hotter than the lower floor where the thermostat is, so for a few weeks in the summer we have to really crank it.

I'm told we should look into a vent fan to help distribute the air better but I haven't taken the time to put in the effort yet, I'm sad to say

[–] rothaine@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

71F always, year round

[–] rayyyy@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

It's been mid 70s here in the day and mid 50s at night just about all summer so far. Bought two window air conditioners but never bothered to install them. We open windows at night and close them in the day.

[–] Nemo@midwest.social 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Summer: 73 during the day, 78 at night.

Winter: 65 all the time

[–] Tuss@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Whatever my renting company sets it at.

It usually is around 20-21C
