70 would be great, but I have gotten used to keeping it at 67-68 the last few winters to keep the bills reasonable. You actually get used to it; of course I don't have small children here, which is a factor. If I was in a place that was 70 now, I would probably feel uncomfortably warm.

That's what I really like. 67 to 68. If cold, you can always put on a sweater and dress up. Thanks for the reponse.

The temperature I can function at in the winter is 65. My husband drops the temp to 62-63. At night we drop it to 60. In the summer I like it at 75-78. Any higher and I get a little moody.

During the winter I usually keep the temperature at about 67 degrees and during the summer I usually keep it about 73 degrees. Those temperatures are comfortable for me as well as saving money on our high electric bills here. :-)

we keep our thermostat at 70 degrees. it`s a comfortable temperature. a few times my husband will put it up a little if he feels its cold. like to 72. I don`t like when he does this because our utility bills are high enough.

In the winter it is set for between 68-70 degrees and in the summer, whatever open windows, doors and fans will make it! :) Hi sis!

I actually prefer 68 degrees in the winter and 76 in the summer. The cooler the better. I can not take the hot temperatures in the summer. I know the energy companies say to turn up the temperature to 78 or even 80 but I just can't take it. I would love to keep it at 68 all year.

I like it at about 60-65. We like it cold. My son and husband are hot blooded I guess you could say. they sweat very easy and are always warm. So that is a great temp for us.

I would love my home that cool too, as I am always warm, but hubby says it is too cold. Thank you for responding.
