Our living rooms are at 70* usually. 68* in the bedrooms, and often a window open just a bit (if it's not too cold out)

I am most comfortable at around 64-65 degrees, but dh needs it warmer since he's on blood thinners, so we settle on 70 degrees, which is about as warm as I can handle. My medicine makes me overheat easily. Right now the furnace isn't working, we're using space heaters until the repairman gets here and it's 60 degrees inside.

I keep mine at 68 and wear a sweater or extra long sleeve shirt.

Mother is 91, she keeps it warmer than I like; however, she will put on a sweater if she gets chilly rather than turn up the heat. I keep a fan handy year round if I get too warm, and I keep the register in my sewing room closed as it is close to the furnace.

I have a 2 story apt with 2 zones of heat (paid for by landlord, yay!!) Downstairs I keep at 72. It is one big room with baseboard heaters along walls and an unheated "sunroom" type kitchen attached and 3 steps down. Upstairs I keep at 65 for sleeping but it winds up being about 69 because the bathroom baseboard is actually on my landlord's thermostat (next door).

I have about a 1.5 degree comfort zone and am always putting something on or taking it off. I find a pashmina is just the right weight to take the chill off without getting too hot, so I keep one on my chair. A cotton sweater works well too.

I am just REAL HAPPY that after so many years of heating with wood, I don't have to do anything but turn a dial!! Bliss!!

At the moment it is off but cold front coming tomorrow; have a heat pump, so in the winter it's usually 63 (as low as it will go; gets too hot for me); and summer 83 and the way the heat pump works - or mine at least - it gets too cold at that. Many times I shut it off at night and snuggle under the covers with an electric mattress pad.

I usually have mine at 69 in winter and 72 in summer.
