What temperature do you keep your house?

During the day- 74
When I go to bed- 69

77 & 74

77 is a bit warm for me. Thats about where they keep it here at work.

84, I'm not shitting you.

What? Why? By choice? You can sleep in that?

Summer time
Monday through Friday 7am to 5pm = 90
Monday through Friday 5pm to 7am = 75 or cooler sometimes
Saturday through Sunday 8am to 3pm = 76
Saturday through Sunday 3pm to 8am = 74

You let it get all the way up to 90? The most I will do is slide it up to 77 while I'm at work. I hate when I'm the first one in the office and the AC was left off all night and it's 82 in the office.

between 65-67 year round

ONly takes about 30 minutes for it to go from 90 to 75 if even that.

Damn, takes much, much longer for me. Considering at this time of year it's 105+ by the time I get home. I wouldn't be able to be in a house for 15 min if it was 90 degrees. I'd get flash backs of cutting weight in a sauna with sweats on.

just jump in the shower while its cooling off

a cold shower? I'd rather kill myself.

Just how my house is built. Blows cool heavy air in the right spots, concrete tile roof plays a part. My house is only 2 1/2 years old too, fresh n tight.

No that's what I keep the thermostat at when I have it on. I don't have Central Air or AC, but I thought the question was geared toward "when you control the temperature(winter for Me) what do you keep it at?".

i see

Around 74 is where i feel good.

Every evening when the outside temperature drops below the inside temperature, we open all the windows and turn the ceiling fans on. This is usually enough to get the house cooled down by bedtime. If it's a really hot day and the bedrooms are too warm to sleep, we'll turn the A/C on.

This was my wife's idea. I bitched and moaned about how hot the house was until we got the electric bill. Our neighbors paid on average $350 per month and we paid less than $100.

I've gotten used to the house being 84 but our kids' babysitter hates it. I had to lock the thermostat cuz she kept turning the A/C on.

haha damn man that's a big difference per month!
