26°C for me. I live with my son & he enjoys wearing as little as possible at home. Cold also makes him feel depressed. I’m alright with both hot and cold.
Bro, what the hell… some people are recreating the Caribbean in their houses while some others try to contribute the least amount possible to climate change. This is why we can’t have nice things.
Maybe OP isn’t properly informed of the energy usage and climate impact of his lifestyle. Some countries do very little to teach this unfortunately.
In France, a few years ago, there was a very large campaign for this exact topic to prevent energy usage spikes that could have brought the grid down. It also served as a way to teach people that 19 is just fine in the winter.
Well at least this rebuke will have a chilling effect.
Jesus Christ 26 would be hot even in the summer
Right? That’s what I’d set my AC to. It’s a balmy 18 in my place now and -4 outside. Problem the lack of daylight leasing to the depression. Pop some vitamin d and put a sweater on. Cozy warm clothes are the best clothes.
I was thinking the exact same. I feel wasteful in the summer for keeping it at 23 (73 F). I don’t think I could survive 26 in the winter. Maybe if I had never left Florida, but I doubt it.
Damn 26 is toasty. I get hot if it’s 21 in my home. I warm rooms individually but mostly it’s 19 or 20 degrees. I don’t like to go outside and have too much of a difference.
19.5 on the thermostat, which I’m not sure is accurate. In my opinion comfortable indoor clothes include a sweater or a hoodie, so 26C isn’t just wasteful, it’s very uncomfortable.
15C while I’m away, 17C while I’m in. Gas is expensive and my home isn’t that well insulated. I just put on a warm vest and it’s fine by me.
26!? Do you live in hell? I start sweating at 19 and at 22 I’m stripping off to my underwear
18°, I sometimes push it to 19 if I’m feeling flush.
My parents are in their 80s and rarely go over 15° on their thermostat (unless I’m there complaining!)
My dad’s parents only had one heated room in the house, but that one room was heated like an oven to a really uncomfortable temperature 😆
I’m like your grandparents today. Grew up in DDR, had one heated room: the kitchen. It was also our living room, and on the coldest nights our bedroom. Not heated like an oven though.
It makes me physically uncomfortable to be in a >18C room in the winter, even today. I know it’s just a psychological thing, probably.
Exact opposite from my grandparents. They keep it at least 27 in the winter. It makes it very unappealing to visit, and I have to take frequent breaks outside in the snow.
I assumed that was all old people, since my spouse’s grandparents are the same. Now I’m hoping they’re the exception and most older people aren’t living like lizards in terrariums.
58F/14.5C overnight or when I’m not at home, 67F/19.5C during the day.
Currently working from home, barefoot and in a T-shirt and the thermostat turned down a bit to 65F. I’m feeling quite warm today.
26C would feel like a sauna to me right now.
21 C, bedrooms at 19 C
22 or 23°c and 19 for the bedrooms too
That’s very warm! Don’t think I could deal with those kind of temperatures, not to mention I’d probably go bankrupt trying to keep my 1920s house at 26°C. Right now, my main living areas where I spent a lot of time (work room, living room, dining room) are at 19.7°C, other lesser used rooms are at 16.5°C.
Yeah, 26 is on the hot side of warm indoors for me too. It’s underwear only temperature. But for son it’s super comfortable. Even at this temperature he sleeps with a blanket. Maybe it’s cause he’s very skinny…
60-68F. It took a week for me to notice my heater was put once, though, so I could go lower. Just don’t want to have to worry about pipes freezing.
16C to 20C for euronerds.
For me the same. At my place of work it’s 22C (72F) and it makes me uncomfortable.
A comfortable 16c. 18 if I really want it to get hot.
69F
This isn’t asl…
Same. Mostly because I’m a child.
Warm clothes and an electric blanket at night to go to sleep. I keep my body warm not the house.
73° F
The same here but my heat pump sucks all of the moisture out of the air, so the number on the dial does not equal the comfort of the house.
I bought a humidification system and will install it soon and hopefully I’ll be able to drop the number once there’s a little bit more moisture to convey the heat to my body in the air.
