The recommendation - made as part of Energy Star, a federal program run by the Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy that is aimed at helping consumers make energy efficient decisions - is in the news after being referenced in a Consumer Reports story earlier this month.

The official federal government recommendation for keeping your house cool in the summer is to keep your air conditioning set at 78 degrees.

When you're at work or away, the program recommends setting it at 85 degrees.

When you're sleeping, the government suggests you set the thermostat at 82 degrees.

Good. I'll set mine at 70 degrees at night and 72 during the day. I like the temperature slightly cool at night.

Now, go hug a tree soi boy.

I'm cold natured compared to a lot of folks. I keep mine on 79 most of the time and if it weren't for the old lady (no pics) I would keep it on 81 or so. If I kept it in the low 70's like I see some people do I would freeze to damn death

Ya'll need to work on getting rid of that insulation around your belly area. That will help 75-78 degrees feel better.
