I'd love to heat my house to 70 but oil is too damned expensive.

I need to install a Geothermal Furnace and be done with oil once and for all

Re: In WINTER, at what temperature do you maintain your domicile?

I took your poll just out of curiosity, but here in Dallas it has been in the high 70s, low 80s all week, so I still have the air conditioner running

However, when I did live up north, we kept it around 60-65 and used a wood burning furnace installed in the basement of an old farmhouse, with a oil burner as a backup

stay warm op!

I'm at 50F right now on the thermostat,
but it's still 60F in here with the windows open.
It's down to 45F outside now, so might be time to close up. ;-`)

Re: In WINTER, at what temperature do you maintain your domicile?

I leave the heat pump off until the ground floor is 58 F. We use a space heater to heat our finished basement to 70 F or so. We don't run any heat at night or while we aren't home. Before we got the space heater, our electric bill was as high as $250 a month in winter. With the space heater, we've been able to keep it below $175.

It was 76 outside today so no hear but tonight it's cold again at 55 so heat back on an up to about 74 feels about right.

Except my feet which get cold about October and stay cold until the next June.

Pelts create a good thermal barrier,

69, there is a huge difference between 69 and 65.

We run a computer program that shuts the heat off while we sleep so the house temp can drop to 65, but it comes on enough to be comfortable when we wake.

We vary the temp based upon bedtime, as everyone sleeps better when a little cold. It might get down to 60 deg F, but chillier for me since I like it cold too.

Hey, do you get more condensation not using a tent with a floor? Or less? Curious about setting up a tent that way....
