What's your a/c set at?

i was wondering what normal air conditioning temperatures were b/c people tell me my house is freezing and would rather sit outside then inside i keep it 67-68 degrees in summer and in winter i never run the heater and if my husband complains i'll put it on 58 degrees for a few minutes i was just wondering how much different the temperature is in my house then in others.

What's your a/c set at?
Recommended thermostat settings





. Winter Summer


When you're home: 68° 78°


When you're sleeping or not at home: 55° 85°








For your heating bills: By setting back just 3° Fahrenheit, you could save $74 per heating season. Bigger setbacks save even more.





For your air-conditioning bills: If we all reduce our air conditioner use by 10% this summer, we could save enough electricity for 2,400 homes.
Reply:i keep mine for financial reasons at 70 but would much prefer to be at 68 degrees---in the winter we keep the temp at 68
Reply:right now 71.


at night is is always on 69





I'm not going to be uncomfortable in my own home.

Reply:In the summer I set my central AC to 72 degreed and in the winter I set the thermostat to 68 degrees.
Reply:71 during the day, 68 at night, We sleep better in the cooler air.
Reply:i se it at 80 in the summer, and 68 in the winter
Reply:I have my a/c set to about 78 fahrenheit. (Incidentally, my house is currently on the market, and I was shocked and appalled to come home one day to find that a prospective buyer had the audacity to set it to 60... and leave it that way! Felt like a meat locker; plus, a horrible waste of power %26amp; money.)
Reply:The central air is 72 during the summer, and 72 during the winter also....constant temperature (a/c and heat)
Reply:74
Reply:73 F in summer and 65 F in winter.
Reply:wow-that's pretty freaking cold for air conditioning. your electric bill must be something in the summer. mine is set at 78 which is what the power company recommends. we turn it down to about 75 at night for sleeping.
