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

WHAT THE HELL IS A FARENHEIT 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺
You guys can control the temperature in the summer?
Tried to set ours here to around 20°C (~70°F), but it barely even reaches 23°C (~74°F) even in the middle of the night. I still consider myself lucky being able to run the AC for most of the day though, so I’m not complaining.
They never seem to be very accurate even if it thinks it’s reached 20c
Even more so since my AC’s thermostat is located just inside the air intake. Perhaps it registers a far lower temperature than the rest of the room. It’s easily compensated though by setting the thermostat lower than the target ambient temperature (here, it’s 25°C or 77°F), I guess.
In australia reverse cycle ac is very common, so we keep ours set to ~24°C year round.
Right? I’m over here looking at my thermostat set to Off.
Username checks out.
We typically keep our house at 68F in the summer, and in the winter it’s 63F during the day, 55F at night. We like it on the chilly side.
To help those unfamiliar with Fahrenheit (like I am)
68°F = 20°C
63°F = 16.6°C
55°F = 12.8°C
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
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.
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.
76F summer 74F winter
21C in the winter and 19C in the summer
Why not just set it to 20 all year long?
Because celcius sucks for environmental temperature
I mean I don’t really care what temperature is based on but exactly what does 77 degrees exactly refer to in that it is better or worse than any other number?
It means it’s 77% hot
What a bizarre claim.
Or you can learn both and just be better educated…you could try that.
It’s not about learning or not. It’s about 1 system being fundamentally less suited for the task. You wouldn’t argue that we should all be using kelvin. I mean, you could argue that, but you wouldn’t be right.
Yes Celsius certainly seems more natural.
Not for human centered climate, where 0-100F is a very convenient set of human centric temperatures. 0 is really cold, 100 is really hot
Where is freezing? That is a pretty important one particularly for driving or freezing pipes? So 40 is really hot, 20 is decent, 0 is freezing and -20 is cold and -40 is really cold. And water boils typically around 100.
I mean, ignoring zero in Calvin, it is all arbitrary when it comes to temperature. Just celsius likes to land some key numbers on human centric values.
You just described Celsius, you idiot.
You are talking purely out of ignorance. The majority of the population on Earth are getting on just fine using celsius with none of the problems you claim to exist.
Also “really cold” and “really hot” are purely subjective terms which varies a lot from person to person and from location to location.
74 during the day, 70-72 when I go to sleep
76 in the summer and 68 in the winter
24°C / 75°F during summer, 20°C / 68°F during winter.
62F in the winter and 72F in the summer… I like It chillier than warmer :-)
Same here!
Just moved into a house with ac for the first time and it is well insulated and lots of shade from trees. At night before bed I set it to 68, and in the morning I set it to 74. Even when we had 100 degree days it never got above 73 inside, so basically I only run the AC at night.
My landleach pays for energy, so, 72F at all times and a small data center running in the corner
86F/30C. Turn on the fan and it’s cool
You actually have your thermostat set to 86, or are you joking?
When it’s 40℃ outside, I set my AC to around 30 too.
that’s reasonable.
That’s more of an “always on” type setting though, isn’t it?
Actually no. When it’s that hot, I leave it on from afternoon / evening till before sleep. It was a couple of hours.
Eh not thermostat, I use AC and it only cools down, no heating. And setting it to 30 actually makes it cooler than 30
