What do you keep your AC on during the summer?

73 now that I’m in an apartment that stays cool well but usually 68-69 when I had a house. I’m always hot so would prefer 71 in the apartment but the lady friend is always cold. 73 seems like a good compromise.
78 when we are gone. 72 when we're home. We have a Google thermostat so we can adjust as needed without getting out of the chair or bed. Nice to be able to monitor it while we are away.
74 during day 77 at night summer
65 during day 62 at night winter
65 during day 62 at night winter
my office is 82.2 rn. stop being pussies. take your shirt off. have a couple pops
74-75-76 depending on how it feels at the time.
Winters is 70 daytime and 65 at night but my bedroom stays a bit warmer than the thermostat at night.
Sidebar, we all get used to our own home comfort temps. Do you all have trouble with temps when visiting for a few days with relatives that set their house temp way different?

That 71-77 is a big range. There are probably households that will fight over 1 degree within that. We keep ours around 74 most of the time but will bump it down to 73 or 72 if it gets extremely hot. Have a 2 story home so keeping the upper level cool is challenge as you can freeze out the lower level will still being warmer than you like upstairs. A few years back my HVAC company helped me tweak the dampers coming off the unit in the basement were we made the main level damper about 50% open while the upper level at 100% and it's made a big difference as instead of being 3-5 degrees warmer upstairs its about 1-2 degrees with the AC on now on an average day.
Two story as well. We struggle with freezing out the upstairs on days when we use the oven on the main floor with the thermostat. Looking at upgrading the thermostat to allow for additional sensors upstairs to reduce this. Similar in the winter where the furnace doesn’t run when we use the oven or fireplace and the second floor is frigid.
Our oven is not too far away from the thermostat but don't seem to have this problem. Is it a gas or electric range? Just wondering how its putting off that much heat to affect the temp that much. Granted we don't use the oven a bunch and when we do it's not running for several hours either, maybe 30-60 minutes at a time to make dinner or a bake something.
This right here. Then my sister in law stays for a week and moves it to 76. Then I move to the Hilton Garden Inn.
