Thermostat / Temperature ????

Do you have automatic Thermostat's or do you manually change it??

Also, if no one is home during the day, what Temperature do you leave it on??

Thanks girls!

We have a digital thermostat and have it programed to keep the house at 62 during the day and bring it up to 65 by the time we get home.

Re: Thermostat / Temperature ????

We have a digital thermostat as well.
It's set to go on at 66 degrees at 7am and then goes down to 62 at 9am...pops up to 66 at 5:30pm and then down to 62 at 10pm.

I have different settings for the weekend.

Ours is programmable. We leave it at 60 when we are not home, it goes to 65 a little before we get home and then back to 60 at night when we go to sleep.

Re: Thermostat / Temperature ????

Ours is digital and we programmed it for certain days and times to change the temp in the house. Makes it much easier, and the heating bill isn't outrageous!

ETA: We have 2-zone heat.

We keep the downstairs and upstairs during the day at 64.

At bedtime, downstairs is set at 64 and upstairs set at 67 at night.

During the evening when we're home, the downstairs is set at 67 and upstairs at 64.

We have the heat kick on at 6am, so the air is moving around and it makes it warm both up and down stairs.

Ours is programmable. And since I am home all day with kids most of the time, the temp is pretty cosy. I'd freeze in all of your houses! Chat Icon

Re: Thermostat / Temperature ????

ours is manual. we change it. if we aren't home it goes down to 60. at night up to 65,

our thermostat is in our backroom which is an addition on a concrete slab. its always chillier in there.

the rest of the house gets too hot if we try regulating the temp. in the back room.

ours is programmable (2 zone) but i don't use the program. i prefer manual (though sometimes - like today - I forget to turn it down Chat Icon )

We keep it at 64-65 during the day (don't want the doggie to get too cold) and between 68-70 at night. But if we're upstairs, then the downstairs is turned down and vice versa.

We also have a wood burning stove which heats the house so if DH makes a fire then we turn the heat down to 60ish.
