Thermostat Wars ( lighthearted)

[Sarahh2014]

Dh wants it 17 degrees where as I like at a comfortable 21 or so.What temp have you got it on right now? Am I being 'nesh' as he says? ( We are from South Yorkshire for those who don't recognise that term) I know this isn't the most riveting of threads so I'll apologise now 😁

19. Although OH would happily have it around 30

17 is really cold - I'm with you, I like it around 20/21.

19 since that's mid way for both

20. 17 is bloody freezing!

Haha one of the best things about leaving exh, no more silent turning it up and down - it stays where I put it

Go low. Saves you money and you burn more calories.

20+ is comfortable.

I once dated someone who didn't have the heating on as he was the only one in the house. But he hadn't thought to heat it up for when I arrived. It was 13 degrees indoors

18-19 by day depending on the dampness. I love a chilly night under a warm duvet so 16. :) love my programable thermostat

20 here. We all seem comfortable with that.

We've both got an app on our phones which can control the thermostat.hence the title 😁

18.5 during the day and 16 at night. Only this high because we have small kids.

18-20 in the day and 15 at night here.

When we are home 20-21C, overnight 15C and when we are away from home 10C. Just returned from a break in the sun yesterday evening. At the airport before departure I went onto the Internet and reset the temperature to 21C so the house was comfortably warm on our return.
Sometimes technology is wonderful.

Esspee I will be doing the same from the airport in a couple of weeks !

20 here. Occasionally 21/22 if it's windy out to combat the draughts.

17's too bloody low!

20 here going up to 22 if I have visitors.
It is not warm enough for my disabled mother so she also has an electric fan and keeps her room at around 25 to 27. Costs the earth to run but still cheaper than heating the whole housetop that level and everyone else feeling uncomfortably warm.

17 is fine for me, DH likes it higher but we compromise by him wearing a fleece or me in short sleeves. 15 at night just keeps it ticking over. Love a cold bedroom and hot water bottle!

WHO suggests 18 for the healthy. See this bbc article

Mine is 20 due to drafts. H is away and it is lovely not to sit in a sauna. He walks around in his pants and therefore wants it at 30 - I tell him it is winter therefore wear clothes. His family do at home. It causes massive arguements.

Oh yes I turn it down a little when I go to bed too

I hate long sleeves in the house so I like to be warm enough in just a vest top and bottoms.we turn it lower at night as don't like a stuffy bedroom

22 for me. also silent thermostat wars on phones. gloriously passive-aggressive.

OH and I would agree with your OH I'm afraid, basic is set to 16 here, then we might pop it up to 18 if it gets too chilly 😂
Although downstairs does tend to get a bit warmer in the evenings when we've been cooking etc

I like to be warm enough in just a vest top and bottoms glad to see you are doing your bit for global warming

but NO RADIATORS on in the bedroom. bedrooms should be cold. hot, stuffy bedrooms remind me of a dreadful sleepless night in a boiling house in Wales. ugh.
