Where do you set your thermostat in the winter? Ask a Question

5 Answers

Between 69F and 75F, the same temperature I keep it at all year round. Usually about 72F which is a comfortable temperature in both winter and summer.

Nah, we open the windows in the winter!!

Medium.

I have only electric baseboard, low-medium-high.

Electric baseboard? You mean like a motel? :)

No, most motels have all-in-one heat/A/C units--at least the ones I stay in.

I mean like in the military housing I grew up in.

It's a great way to heat a place--the heat starts at floor level and rises, so no freeze zone around your shins. Like any heat system, if you run it to hot you get a desert band around head height, but if your bed is raised to convenient sitting height or a little higher (like my captain's bed) then a very low heat will keep you warm all night.

It is not needed where i live but we sometimes put it on to just to make it a bit more comfy.

If it's too hot, I open a window. If it's too cold, I add wood.

If it's just hot, i put the fat on, and at night it sit in the window to let cold air in. If it's just cold, i rap a blanket around me.

If it's too hot, I flip the thermostat left, If it's too cold i flip the thermostat right.
