Lol...no

76 if no one is home.

71 if myself or my wife are within 10 miles of the house.

69 at night.

I will occasionally set it to 55. Because... Why not.

Zero chance mine ever gets set to 78.

73-74 is where mine’s going to be. The climate crazies can off themselves and improve the planet’s carbon footprint that way if they don’t like it.

I need to condition myself to warmer temps. I sweat easy, warm natured. Been keeping our system on around 70 night and day. Usually keep it around 68-69.

I'd like to get used to 72 or even 74. But yeah, here in NC, humidity gets tough in the summer. Gotta run the system to dehumidify.

Himidity makes all the difference. In the winter, I run humidifiers to help heat the air.

Try to keep humidity levels around 45-50%.

76/72

That’s all I have to say about that.

The REAL secret is getting an AC mattress for your bed. We used to set the AC at 68 in our room at night. However, now I just set the temp on my mattress to like 70 and then we can keep the room at like 75.

Studies show that a cold room/environment is much better for sleep than hot.

68 and get off my lawn with that commie rationing shite.

OT: My crazy wife no pics made me light a small fire in … the wood stove yesterday She was walking around with a wool coat at 3pm. Lows in mid-high 40s all week (near the SC/NC border).

Fun fact, while it’s arse hot here in the summer, a mere 90 miles north the average HIGH temp during the hottest months of July/Aug tops at 65 degrees. I’d go sit atop Mt Mitchell before I set sat in an 80 degree house all day.
