What’s your thermostat set to?

My DP really feels the cold and has the thermostat set to 21 degrees from 6.30am til 10pm and 15 degrees at night. If I turn it down to 19 degrees he complains so I just wondered how warm you try and keep your house?

Get yourselves a standing desk with a treadmill.

We do actually have both of these…. I’m not great as doing it though! Might need to be a new years resolution!

On a timer at 16°. We only have the heating on overnight if it’s freezing temperatures.

21, boosts to 25 if we get cold, although dh does look at me like this 👀 when I hit that button

Edited

We set to 20 to 21 in the day my dh looks at me the same when I open the heating app! He comes from an anti central heating house!

20 to 21 daytime. 18 overnight. I don't work to sit and freeze!. Personally, I would have it warmer but I am marrid to Yorkshireman.

Snap in all counts - mine is a Yorkshireman who comes from a house where the house is like a cool box…..in laws here over Christmas and had the windows open and were too hot when it was 17 in the house…..I was freezing!
