What is your A/C thermostat set at when you're home?

[spwspw]

What about when you're out?

[venice2007]

78 all day
73 at night
78 if out of house

[RoxMonster]

Somewhere between 72 and 74. It depends how hot it is outside.

My answer is the same for when we are out. Because we have a dog, we keep it the same temp.

[ginger]

68 or 69 during the day. 65 when we sleep.

ETA: When we are out, I think the highest it gets is 72.

ETA: Unless we're on vacation, and then it's off.

[namasteak]

78 during the day
76 at night (we run ceiling fans in the bedrooms too)

[pantsparty]

Depends on how hot it is. Ours is set at 78 right now, we turn it down to 74 or 75 at night.

I keep mine at 78 in the summer, 69 in the winter. Lately it has been so cool outside that the AC didn't kick on at all for weeks.

[lookforstars]

I keep mine around 70, most of the time. I'm kind of hot natured, and can't stand being hot. Makes me ridiculously cranky.

[wowhead]

Right now it's at 66 all the time. Typically it's at 69 during the day and 66 at night.

[fuckyourcouch]

72 at home if it's hot and overnight
74-75 when out

[adhdfashion]

65º but I am 9 months pregnant. The heat turns me into a miserable beached whale of cranky doom.

[Elsa]

77 at home, 80 while at work. Usually keep it at 77 all weekend so we aren't pushing it up and down all day as we are in and out

[wesleycrusher4ever]

66 at night, 70 during the day. 75 when we're out

[starlily]

We try to leave it at 78 at all times from June - October. Sometimes we'll drop it down to 75 or 76 when we're in the house. Otherwise our summer electric bills get to be outrageous.

[cuddlyevil]

77 all the time.

[bonquiqui]

67 or 68 at all times

[mcmel]

73-75 during the day
71 at night

[julygal]

It is always set at 78 no matter if we are home or away. Ceiling fans are used on low in whatever room we are in. The only time we lower the temperature is if we have overnight guests, as we know most people don't sleep comfortably with it so warm. Even then we only drop it to 76, and figure they can crank the ceiling fan on high.

[killercupcake]

Downstairs is set at 82, our bedroom is set at 78, and it's all off when we go out. Power is expensive here.

[textbookcase]

78 during the day, 74 at night. Our house is really poorly insulated, though. I think there are only 2 rooms that actually stay the correct temp. It's probably around 85 in the living room and kitchen. I sweat all day long and I hate summer.

[circa1978]

During the day, 74. Our upstairs is about 81 at that setting, so we have it at 70 at night.

[MixedBerryJam]

Summer: 74 home; 78 out and overnight
Winter: 72 home; 68 out; 61 overnight.

[Gato]

We have a window unit for the attic, but otherwise no AC. It never gets above 75 in the house. #mainelife

[polarbearfans]

68 all the time.... I'm pregnant and running hot. I have no patience for cool down time. Normally we run it at 72, but we have a new unit and duct work so probably could have gone 74 if I wasn't so hot from this baby. We had to run it so cold because the air barely made it to the 2nd floor.

I'm trying not to feel too bad for he environment since we kept it 64/65 in winter and don't run it at all when the temp is comfortable enough for open windows.

[kate1482]

67-68 during the day and 66 at night. Its been freakin hot in Seattle latey so we are so thankful for central AC. We are wimps lol.

[aussiecrush]

Typically 78-76, but the thermostat is in the hall so the front of the house is always a few degrees warmer.

[AuntFlo]

In the summer it is set at 77 because the AC would be running non-stop if it was set much lower. It's hard to keep up when it is 100 degrees outside.

At night I set it down to 74 because I like it cooler while I sleep.

[joshlyman]

Generally 72 at all times (leave it that way for the animals when we are gone). Sometimes we move it down to 70 at night during the summer. I can't sleep when it's hot, and upstairs is always warmer.

[whitemerlot]

75 home, 78 gone.

[lostrn]

73 in the summer, 67 in the winter. We never change it when we go out or anything. Our house is old and kind of crappy though, so the upstairs is never the right temperature. Freezing in the winter and burning up in the summer.
