What degrees is your heater set on?










As many of us realize, it's very cold in most parts of the U.S. right now. Even many southern states are below or at freezing. What are you doing to beat the cold?

For the two people that don't have a heater on---where do you live? If the temperature outside is below freezing---why? What are you doing to keep warm?

My thermostat is broken right now, so either the heat is on or off, so it ranges from 68-84 degrees

A well insulated house can go periods of 8+ hours without having the furnace cut in.

I'd sweat to death if I had to live at a constant 30C. Holy fuck.

I guess.. but that just depends how cold you want to be/how much clothing you want to be wearing.

If you live where the weather is below 20 degrees, you're home probably won't drop below 50 degrees. But I certainly don't want to be walking around a house fully clothed with a jacket on.

Right now I'm wearing a short sleeved shirt, pajama pants and socks. If my heater wasn't on I'd have to be wearing all sorts of clothing.

That's.... That's just not how it is....

By well insulated I mean R20+ in the walls and R40+ in the ceiling.
At that point, even up here in Canuckistan where it has been -30C or colder for 2 weeks, the furnace will be idle for some time between kicking in.

At 20F, roughly -5, I can have my furnace off for most of the day, and my house is R12 all round.

So what's the temperature in your house right now without the furnace? And how long has it been off? Could you walk around in your house right now basically naked and not feel cold?

It is absolutely no big deal to have a -30C snap where I live.

It's at 76 right now.

I have hardwood floors, so there's not much insulation to go around to keep the heat in. I do have a fireplace too and I use it if I want to feel extra toasty.

You guys at 70 or less...call me a grandpa, but I'd be freezing my ass off.


in my experience old people's homes were usually kept colder, not warmer

my wife likes it 72F upstairs. i like it 65F upstairs.
