When do you turn your heat on?

It's 60 degrees in our house right now and freezing. DH wants to turn it on, I say it's too early and we should wait until later in the month.

When do you turn yours on?

TIA

I think we are going to try to hold out until November 1 - even though it was FREEZING in the house last night!

We're going to hold out as long as possible...if anything we'll fire up the wood burning stove.

I'm in CT and it's about 10 degrees colder than LI here. But even though I am shivering right now I want to hold off as well.

Re: When do you turn your heat on?

DH turned it on earlier - regular heat and radiant -and it way too hot IMO. I turned them both off. I love it colder though.

Re: When do you turn your heat on?

We turn it on when we're cold. No specific date or month...just when it's cold.

We both, especially me, like the cold, so....we're not turning it on for a while.Chat Icon

Re: When do you turn your heat on?

We did this morning. I have an infant so I can't keep the house too cold.

Re: When do you turn your heat on?

I would like to hold off a little longer. Hopefully until Nov 1st. Besides I have to learn how to set the new thermostat DH installed last week.

Last night we had the ceiling fan on in the bedroom....It is ok in the house today, not too cold and too early for the heat.

Re: When do you turn your heat on?

I don't think there is a specific date you should turn it on. If you are cold, then you turn it on.
Personally, I would rather spend my money to be warm than on something else. We do budget and only pay $138/month all year round so to me that is not alot.

WE just turned it on when we came home earlier this evening because it was so cold in here. We'll probably turn it off before bed, because we all sleep well in cooler temps.

Re: When do you turn your heat on?

we set the heat for 65. If the windows are open the heat gets shut off, but if they are closed the heater stays set at 65 unless it gets to cold. We have the dog and kitten so I try not to keep it to cold for them....I guess they are a bit spoiledChat Icon

If the temp gets too low, we'll turn it on. So far we've been okay...but we have no set date.
