You can set your thermostat as low as you want to doesn't mean you will get the house to that temp. Normal is a 15-18 degree drop from outside. If you can only get the house to 74 put thermostat on 74 so it doesn't run all day ALSO don't ever turn it off if you're leaving as it will cost more to get it cooler when you get home
This public announcement has been provided by the HVAC industry... meaning me. So stop calling when it's 100 outside and your house won't go below 75

There’s a reason I don’t live in city. More and more I want to go off grid. Takes a lot of work, though.

I was in Manhattan in October of 2024. Suddenly all the ACs in our building didn't work anymore. I thought our AC broke....but they were all turned off in mid October and would not cool anymore and you had no choice in the matter. This has been going on for a while in blue run cities. frick that!

I’m glad this is being acknowledged. Someone please tell my in-laws 78 is hot. I need a good night sleep

78°???? Nah, frick that.
72° is the highest I could go to be all collective! Lol
Thankfully, I'm don't care about "collectivism", so I'm staying in the 69-70 degree range.

Our City is doing its part too: maintaining the 78 degrees rule in our buildings, dimming/turning off our lights during peak electricity demand

My house has damn good insulation so 71 is already cool enough. Hotels, jam that thing down all the way.
My bro in law keeps his house at 78. We don’t visit much. I think that’s his wife’s goal.

I’d love to know what his AC is set at
I’d bet an amount of money I am not comfortable losing that it is not 78

That’s coming, Powerman. Under socialism, the coercion always comes.
The socialists took over the UK in 1945, and a few years later they made it ILLEGAL TO CHANGE JOBS WITHOUT GOVERNMENT PERMISSION!

I’m sure this was initially a suggestion in the UK. Now it can get you arrested. I wonder if the jails have AC over there.

Let the left wing politicians pushing this climate change garbage set their AC to 78. They are the only people that still believe that bunk.
The left wing politicians don’t believe it either. They just want control of everything

That's what I said! I feel they almost have to or else they'd be compared to that chad Sheriff Arpaio who put folks in tents.

I'm pretty sure 78 is what ERCOT in Texas recommends too.
