Title. We keep ours at 75F, parents do 77F, and in laws 68F. It made me curious what everyone else keeps theirs at?
minus-squareLoganNineFingers@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up12·1 year agoWinter: 20°C when home/awake, 17°C when out or asleep. Before kids we used to drop it to 15°C at night. It was glorious Summer: 22°C when home awake or asleep, 26°C when away for longer period, 24 for short periods
minus-squaresneakattack@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoYeah that doesn’t seem very efficient to make the AC work so much harder when you return home.
minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoIt’s apparently a good thing to do: https://www.carrier.com/residential/en/us/products/air-conditioners/best-temperature-for-ac/ Maybe because the house is naturally warmer during the day when you’re not home, and it will cool down on its own before you come home. But idk, I don’t own an AC.
