Title. We keep ours at 75F, parents do 77F, and in laws 68F. It made me curious what everyone else keeps theirs at?
WHAT THE HELL IS A FARENHEIT 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺
Programmed for 19C during the day and ramping up to 21C at night.
16C flat at all other times.
You guys can control the temperature in the summer?
83F day 78F night. These temps are mainly chosen to not give my AC a heart attack.
During the winter I’m pretty hands off and will let it get down to 20-30F and just layer up next to a small space heater.
20 - 30F?! You have no water pipes??
If it does get down below freezing it’s usually not for long. And once I’m up and moving and have a space heater on its probably in the 50s by the afternoon.
I live in an RV - you kind of just work with the weather you get.
Not American. What’s a thermostat?
The electronic thing on the wall that controls the temperature of your heater or air conditioner.
older ones are often electrical, but not really electronic. they use a bimetal strip that bends due to changing temperatures, to complete a circuit at the point you set the slider. it’s actually a really fascinatingly simple bit of tech.
Mine growing up used a bit of mercury in a sealed vial mounted to that bimetallic strip.
