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

You guys can control the temperature in the summer?
Programmed for 19C during the day and ramping up to 21C at night.
16C flat at all other times.
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…
Europe.
Winter 20C/70F, but we only heat the bedrooms or rooms we mostly stay in. Kitchen, etc. can go as low as 10C/50F
Summer: no heating/AC at all. Open a window when cold air is coming inside. Close the windows when hot air is coming in. It’s never gone above 35C/95F, and that’s during a heat wave. Usually it’s 25C/80F max.
Sometimes when it’s too cold. You wear a sweater and thick socks. Sometimes it’s hot. Fan or live with it. Adapt our schedules accordingly, perhaps do groceries when it’s super hot or go on an errand that requires the car a drive so we can cool down in the supermarket/AC.
It’s never gone above 35C/95F
I think I speak for 99% of the people here when I say “FUCK THAT”
The climate’s fucked and inflation is rampant.
You’re frankly better off getting used to the occasional hot day.
It’s hot, but you get used to it.
I’m going out my damn mind trying to work out what I should set it at. I’ve been obsessively adding more and more temperature and humidity sensors around my living space to work out exactly what my idiot brain thinks is comfortable.
I don’t understand why 23C/50% makes me feel like I’m in the fucking Amazon rainforest one day, but on another I feel like I’ve got ice forming on my damn face like Jack Nicholson at the end of The Shining.
I’m this close to buying a ZigBee rectal thermometer. Core body temperature has to be the missing piece. (I suppose any ZigBee environment sensor can be a rectal one if I bite down on something first).
(Oh and lux, I wonder if lux levels tricked my brain but that doesn’t seem to correlate either!)
Make sure you get one with a flared base.
Not American. What’s a thermostat?
The electronic thing on the wall that controls the temperature of your heater or air conditioner.
older ones are often electrical, but not really electronic. they use a bimetal strip that bends due to changing temperatures, to complete a circuit at the point you set the slider. it’s actually a really fascinatingly simple bit of tech.
Mine growing up used a bit of mercury in a sealed vial mounted to that bimetallic strip.
83F day 78F night. These temps are mainly chosen to not give my AC a heart attack.
During the winter I’m pretty hands off and will let it get down to 20-30F and just layer up next to a small space heater.
20 - 30F?! You have no water pipes??
If it does get down below freezing it’s usually not for long. And once I’m up and moving and have a space heater on its probably in the 50s by the afternoon.
I live in an RV - you kind of just work with the weather you get.
