Are you surviving the heat???

[Gofirstclass]

With this "heat dome" settled over much of the east coast and Gulf Coast states and the midwest, and many of us exposed to temps reaching 100*, where do you set your thermostat to stay cool in your home?

Also, who pics the temperature setting, you or your spouse?

74 here. I set it but let my wife think she does...lol. I have the app on my phone so if I see her move it I go into my phone and change it back without her knowing it...lol

I posted some cool screen shots of how I handle this not too long ago but damn if if I could find it.
Used every search criteria I could think of. Any CSR help/search genius?

Normally 75 day / 72 night.
Haven’t had to turn on the ac at home yet this year, not very warm. Lake Erie water temp off Buffalo is 65, year ago today it was 70. High today I think was 70. Sure is hot elsewhere though.

I'll just say the admiral is trying to make it snow inside.

You need lower numbers in your poll.

73 in the day. 70 or 69 at night. 85 ish in the garage the boat is in, or lower when I am working in there.

We stay at 78, night and day. It's a mutual decision.

What heat? Are you in Arizona?

 

[Jus Cruisin]

Always 78° once we moved to Florida. So that there wasn't such a huge temp change when walking outside and to save on the electric bill. Since moving north, kept it the same in our short summers. 73° is our winter heat temp. I hate the cold.

 

[Skybolt]

We keep it set to 70 all day/night. Friday night it goes to 76 until Sunday morning. Then back to 70. I keep the boat at 68, because of the 2' diff. Winter is 68. I decide, if it were left to my wife, it would be 62 everywhere, all of the time.

We just got back from a quick 5-6 day trip to Florida. Was 20 degrees cooler in FL than what we left in TX and came back to this week.

At home I run 76 during the day, drops to 74 at bedtime.

I think I hold my boat at 66 but there seems to be zero correlation between reality and the numbers on my AC displays

It's off. We don't have central air. Working on a mini-split system.

For this exact reason, I moved the silver bulb on the telephone cord from the inlet of the AC and mounted it to better read actual cabin temp. Thermostat can then be set up almost identical to home....the cord is usually plenty long to move it to get a much better cabin temp reading.

74/73 in my house . Back when I was married if me ex would say it was hot in the house I would just tell he to open her legs and it would cool the house down fast.

We just installed a mini split for a customer that built small on slab home it’s going to be their only source for heating and cooling. It maintains 100% efficiency down to -13f and provides heat down to -40f

Yup, Arizona.
