stays on 73F year round , AC and heat. Average bill runs around $80.

Usually 72° F / 22.22°C. But my wife likes to turn it down on the really hot days were the AC doesn’t quite keep up. I try to explain the AC is running all out, turning it down does not help. And we certainly do not have one of the high end units that can throttle, it is either on or off.

76F in the summer, 72F during the day in the winter, 68F at night in the winter.

WTF 70s? I'd be roasting.

69 is usually what I keep it at in my car.

71F always, year round

Somewhere between 15 to 20 during summer and Somewhere north of 25 during winter for me.

Summer time 20C (68F)

76F

Hah, thermostat

I'm the top floor apartment

My AC is set to 70f, it's currently 82f inside at about 0100.

My bedroom is 85f

If it could do the job I'd have it set to 75f and ideally keep it there but unfortunately I have to set it to 70 because the area near (like within a meter) the AC gets cold enough to get it to kick off any higher while the apartment cooks

I do 80F during the day and 78F at night in the pacific northwest US. It usually gets cold enough at night that opening windows will cool my house to the low 70s overnight. In the winter I have it set to 68F. I use ceiling fans and appropriate clothing to stay comfortable within those parameters.

77F - day 75F - night.

on winters, I don't go above 20°C. on summers, I completely turn off the heater and even cut the gas, have all the two windows fully open for the rest of the season. I have an AC system installed, tho it's really old and consumes too much power for my likings. In my country they fucking rob people with electricity/gas bills, it's the fetish of our president. Also the AC unit is in a wrong place and haven't even cleaned it in years, so... it's just decoration at this point.

my luck is that I have neighbors on two sides and under me (I'm at first floor) so I don't really need to crank up the heater, because I'm already surrounded by heated homes. since my home is small, heating with gas is extra cheap for me.

I'm from Europe.

I have electric panel heaters so there isn't a thermostat. I'd normally turn one on in the main room and bedroom for a couple of hours each day during winter, but last winter my electricity rates were so high that I just used them on the coldest days. The thermometer in my bedroom dropped below 10°C, it wasn't fun.

Off. ~~Type error: null is not a number.~~

I don't live somewhere that it gets to 0°C / 32°F, although it can get close in the middle of the night in winter, so I don't need to worry about the cold killing me.

Electricity is expensive though. I just dress in layers and use blankets or a hot water bottle when it's cold. When it's hot I might turn on the aircon to get myself to "not miserable", but that usually only happens a few weeks a year. I try to acclimate to whatever the outdoor temperature is.

I also keep my windows open all year. The idea of keeping an entire house (not my small city shoebox, that is at least insulated by other shoeboxes) at a constant temperature year-round is sort of weird to me. Most people I know will use the aircon or heater at home maybe half the time, they're nowhere near as avoidant of using them as I am.

I just find it hard to justify the expense, both financially and environmentally, unless I'm truly miserable and not just slightly uncomfortable.

73 in spring, summer, and fall. 67 in the winter.

In the summer: usually 78, but sometimes I'll drop it to 75 if I'm feeling hot. We spend most of our time in the basement and most of the time it cools off at night enough to just open the windows.

In the winter: somewhere between 65 and 68. Our house can feel chilly pretty easily so I tend to bump the heat up a bit.

18.5 celsius, which probably translates to 17.5 in some corners of the house. I used to put it on 20.5 C, but the insane gas prices and the limited gas supply motivated me to put it at the minimum I can live with. Although when working from home I usually put it lower (like 17 degrees Celsius) and use an electric heater instead in my working room. And obviously when I'm away from home it goes to like 15 degrees.

This is all caused by the insane energy prices here in Europe last year. I think my energy bill increased like doubled or tripled. While I can pay it, it feels like an absolute waste of money (and gas) to do that. We had to work together to keep the supply high after Russian gas stopped being an option.

Edit: this is for the Fall/Winter/Spring. Currently it's at 16 or something and hasn't turned on in months.

We don't have a set temperature for all year, that seems silly to me. The outside temperature, the price of electricity/gas, the energy efficient of your house, so many variables...

Apologies for not converting, but in the winter we stick to the mid to high 60s when it's in the 40s or below outside. For the summer if it's getting into the high 90s or low 100s we have to go up to the high 70s to avoid going broke on electricity.

PS go clean out the heat exchange fins on your compressor outside, sometimes animals or weather will clog them up with debris which kills the efficiency of the compressor.
