Hey everyone! Thanks for watching! This video is for our customers out there who may not know just where to keep there home's temperatures during the hot summer. Enjoy and as always thanks for your support!
I keep mine at 78 but I notice it kicks in every 10 min is this normal?
78 F with high humidity is very different from 78 F at low humidity.
We finally had central a/c installed in our house last year after the indoor temp reached 96*!
We kept it pretty much set at 74* but like you said, we do adjust it slightly up/down depending on how we feel.
It's a great feeling to come into a cool house!
God bless the man who invented central a/c! Lol
What is the point in having AC if it's almost 80? That's about 5 degrees past miserable.
Here... The Human Body absorbs the Sun's Radiation, it starts at 72F Degree. As you get older, the body needs more Radiation to function, which lots of people including ALL the best scientists in the world do not know. Well, they have a slight bit of clue, but THEY do not know that our body needs Radiation to survive. The best Temperature for the Human Body is 72F and sleep is 70F. If you are EMF Sensitive, set it at 74F - 76F. If you are older, like 65+, you need at least 76F - 80F.
*NOTE:* Try it at 72F and you will see how comfortable it will be and YES, your body will adjust to this. If you are older... Try it at 74F-76F-78F and see your comfort settings.
You're an idiot
Well if your fat, you will need it colder too. So maybe that's a problem you have 😅
Here in Texas its 105* so 78* is just fine for me.
Do what you can afford. Simple as that.
All I have to say is Supply Air Senser. . . And, this video is one of the best on this subject on TH-cam. Common sense. (31 years experience here) Ecobee with Alexa is a life saver for us, customer confusion is almost zero and they love the "talk" feature, not to mention the thermostat does 50% of what homeowners use their computer for.
Brother, I can’t thank you enough for this video. Greetings me from DC!!
I agree with you. 72 degrees is perfect for me and I work outside alot so I like to come home to a cool home. in the winter I like it at 64-66 degrees.
Go with 20 degrees lower temp then outside factoring in humidex. You also need to get a feel for your a/c. During a heatwave mine seems happy at 79f. I bump it to 81 in the afternoons when the sun is hitting my windows. I dont like my ac running constantly, set to auto it cycles. When its constantly running for hours its bound to freeze over.
It all depends on where the air is coming from and how high or low the ceilings and the air coming from the floor or ceiling 76 -78 at my house is more than I can stand coming from my floor vents other wise I have a high power electric fan I put over every floor vents for forced induction and then it gets really cold and if push comes to a shove I can just take a warm shower and freeze high ceiling takes up a lot of cold air and heat
We used to be those 68F people but over the years we've gotten ourselves used to 73 so far while we are home and 75 while we are gone, can't let the pupper get hot!
We have our 3 ac at 78 at different times of the day. Our living room ac is on all day on heatwave days and off at night then the 2 bedroom ac are on at 4- 6 hrs at night still between 76-78... 5 electric fans on circulating 15-20 hrs a day
I, agree 72°F is a good temperature! I have my upstairs thermostat set to 79 during the hot afternoon.
The temperature dropped to 73°F!!! I have a clock with a builtin thermometer I got the clock sitting on top of my toilet.the clock read 73°F in my bathroom in my bedroom.”
I, got a standing fan I put my fan in the doorway to my bathroom, to blow that cold air into my bedroom!!
I’ll love it a little warmer and I will have mine at 73-77 degrees I will never set it higher than 79and I’ll don’t have to worry about the electricity bill bc I’ll have a solar panel and save lots of money
Fresno Ca I tell our customers you have several factors that determine how Comfortable you will be, Windows, Insulation, & unit capacity. I like the 78-80 range here in the Valley, We are trying just to escape the scorching 90+ 100+ weather. But we always run into that one house who LOVES their tstat to run at 75-70.
I usually have it on at 83 all day long, which is fine with me, is 83 an ok temp to keep or should move the dial down to 80? Appreciate your response, I'm in Florida.
@@cflo1386 83 is fine.
JL i would recommend 79F so it keeps the humidity under control.
For me it depends on the house. Some houses run at 78 during the day andn73 at night nicely while other homes I’ve lived in needs to be at 80 during day and 75 at night or else the ac won’t shut down and take breaks. I would say just keep adjusting until your ac runs efficiently. You don’t want it running none stop
I like my thermostat set on 72 winter and summer. When I'm home
I don’t have a thermostat I just wanted to know 78F ( 25.5C ) is a bit to hot in my opinion same with most of you in the comment section agree
Although it feels nice and cool at around 74-75F ( 23.3C - 23.8 C ) I am comfortable until it gets to 76F ( 24.4 C ) with good air circulation and humidity.
Although if I had a thermostat the golden goal would be 74F ( 23.3 C ) in the day and 69F ( 20.6 C ) at night
Awesome information, im passing this to all my family!

I set mine to 80. But there are factors when finding the sweet spot. The number one and really the only factor is insulation. This includes the outter structure of your dwelling rather if it is a house or an apartment. I live in an apartment with good insulation and it is 90% brick on the outer structure. When I set it to 80 all day, my apartment stays cool enough where the ac would come on and off every 20 minutes or so during the day even in 100 degree weather and the intervals are longer at night. In a wood structure, this would be much different even with good insulation, mainly with older structures. I also have blackout curtains which helps keep the light from beaming in, thus making my apartment more favorable for cooling.
We've had a Honeywell Wi-Fi programmable thermostat for about 5 years and it's the Best Thermostat ever! It really does help save heating and cooling energy. You get a monthly Honeywell Report that tells you how much the unit is running compared to last years use and so far the reports are showing it was hotter last year 2018.
"July Trends: Heating & cooling compared with last year. On average, temperatures were 4° cooler than July 2018. July 2019 Avg Hi: 83° Avg Lo: 64° .July 2018
Avg Hi: 88° Avg Lo: 68°.
The report also shows how many hours the unit ran. We set at 78 days and 73 at night, its very comfortable. Right now at 3: PM it's 104 deg. outside. I'm in southern California.
great info! thank you so much
You are king 👑. My man. 🙌🏽
I keep my a/c around 73-75 and my bill doesn't skyrocket bc my apartments are new and energy efficient
I can't even imagine using 78 or above in the hot South East Texas summers! I'll have to accept whatever the increase is for my electric bill, to stay at 74-75.🙂
Cathy B 🤷♂️ I keep at 73
Get some ceiling fans, 78 is fine with the fan on.
The AC dries out the air so it feels cooler, 78 at 45-50% humidity is OK, but at 70-80% it is hot. I do live in North Carolina, so it's humid most of the time.
@@monkeyboy4746 I live in the Fayetteville area and it sometimes gets to 100F in the summer. It’s very humid here as well. I keep my Honeywell WiFi thermostat set to 74F during the day, 73F in the evening, and 71F at night to be comfortable.
My personal opinion is to keep it no more than 8 degrees difference than outside unless it gets over 86 degrees. I will never set it higher than 77 or 78 degrees. But, I have a brand new high end TRANE AC condenser and furnace. I also have a programmable thermostat that with a schedule and attached to my Google home. I always ensure it knows when I’m away for longer periods in order to save more money. With shorter periods I don’t change as I don’t want the AC to go up and back down right away…
Good feedback!
So what you're saying is the higher you set your temperature during the summer the more you save? I want my AC to run but it shouldn't be running more than 30 minutes at a time right? I'm trying to avoid any high electric bill so far I've been lucky but I want to make sure I keep it that way. I tried to keep it on auto and around 72 to 75° give or take. 🤷
I have a tcl air conditioner and it keeps shutting off at 70 and restarts at 79.
I live in south Texas, from May-October our A/C never gets a break.
Hi, Laynne this is Jermey McGuire. I too live in south Texas, since late October 2021.”
I previously had a Lennox XC16 5 ton air conditioner from 2009 and a Goodman 4 ton air conditioner. From 2018 my upstairs Lennox air conditioner wouldn’t cool under 80 for the past 2 summers and my downstairs air conditioner wouldn’t keep up.”
It was hot and miserable!! Especially upstairs,
I just got 2 brand new air fresheners installed a couple days ago. Now my upstairs thermostats at a cool 78!!! I’d rather be cool than burning up! I agree with you it’s hot from May-October, I’m ready to tackle the heat.”
And stay cool and comfortable. My new air conditioners will be keeping me cool this summer is going to be hot I hope you stay cool!! 🫶🏻🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗♥️
Well said Greg. I get tired of our power companies here in FL (I am on Duke Energy) saying to lower our electric bill we should keep our thermostats on 78. For me, that is uncomfortable because of our high humidity levels. I have the exact same thermostat you showed in the video and it is set to 75 when I am home, 77 when I am at work, and 73 at night. If I go on vacation, I put it in Vacation Mode and keep the house at 78 for A/C and 65 for Heat. That works well for me. My electric bill is usually under $100, but if the temp outside is over 95+ it will get over $100.00.
Thanks for your feedback!
It took awhile, but 78 degrees is fine for us in South Florida....the temp is averaging 93 these days so FPL recommends 78. Not a good idea to set the thermostat higher when you are not there since it takes hours to restore back to 78. We started at 75 for a few weeks, then 76 then 77 and now 78.... you can get accumulated to 78 if you are patient thereby being comfortable and saving energy (money)
Ŵht temp do i put my ac that it gets to a centain nd shuts off than bck on again i live in a apt
Isn't it true that, the only difference in cast to a lower temp is the initial cost? Once the home reaches the temp, to maintain it is no more than a few degrees lower. To maintain a temp, cost no more, regardless if it's set at 74 or 72. The trick is leaving the T-stat along.
Should the AC fan be on "Auto" or "On"?
We keep ours at 63 in summer. Don’t know if heat pump would be able to do this.
84 when you're at home along with some electric fans. Most people will be fine. Just tough it out a little bit more.
I tell everyone I am saving money on gas for my car because I work from home. I didn't think about needing to keep the AC on all day for the same reason
They key to a cheap bill in the summer is having AAA air circulation to create a good breeze inside your home. I live in deep South Texas in subtropical humid conditions. We have our thermostat on 78 degrees but we also have 3 Vornado air circulators. We have one that covers both the living/dinning room and the last two are in the kitchen and bedroom. The house feels like it is pressurized with a cool 12mph breeze throughout the house and our bill is around $210 a month during July- Sept. We got rid of our Central Air system years ago. Window units run MUCH MUCH cheaper than Central and you can turn off any units to any rooms that are not in use. We have a large home but only need to cool part of the house since there are only two of us now. We are saving about $90 a month compared to our Central air system.
Am I the only one that keeps their thermostat set at 70 year around? These temperature settings everyone is talking seems kind of odd to me.
Well said Greg!!! I keep mine at 65 in So Cal.
I turn mine on and of during the day is that a bad idea I do have a programmable thermostat
@@curlypdub9283 set it and forget it
Wow, everyone must be cold blooded. I'm uncomfortable at 74. We keep ours at 70-72 in Florida, year round.
I keep my temperature at 76º and that is my comfort temp all year round.
I'm thinking if I adjust it while I'm away the unit will have to work harder and nonstop to reach the temperature I like.
76-77° is our comfort zone in central FL. When we leave to work, we boost it up to 80°.... we save money that way
I like to keep mine at 68F. That’s my ideal comfort zone. Im in southern NC and it gets hot here.
Any one glad they live in the conservative south. We don’t have to worry about electricity and it is pretty cheap due to all the dams we built. 150.00 a month and leave thermostat on 69
My home stays between 68-69 degrees all year around.
Yes, I'll listen to Energy Star aka the government for advice.
thats way too hot i keep mine at 68. you can always put more layers on but you cant take more off.
I don’t want to be the old guy in chat but humidity makes a huge difference . There’s no one answer . It depends on where you live .
I recommend you get perimenopause ever.
What are the chances of mold development when ac does not turn on often enough?
Illinois weather winter 72 summer 75 perfect obviously in a new home very insulated and new Heat and A/C equipment 😎😎
In the winter I'll have it to 68 during the day, and 58 at night.
During the summer it's usually 75 during the day and 65-60 at night.
❄️☃️😱
I freeze in the winter & sweat in the summer bc I never turn my unit on . Utility bill is $35 a month all yr long
Enjoy life
You can damage your unit if you don't use it
Never never if you leave in Florida
78 - yes!!!!
78 summer and 68 winter
The Human Body absorbs the Sun's Radiation, it starts at 72F Degree. As you get older, the body needs more Radiation to function, which lots of people including ALL the best scientists in the world do not know. Well, they have a slight bit of clue, but THEY do not know that our body needs Radiation to survive. The best Temperature for the Human Body is 72F and sleep is 70F. If you are EMF Sensitive, set it at 74F - 76F. If you are older, like 65+, you need at least 76F - 80F.
*NOTE:* Try it at 72F and you will see how comfortable it will be and YES, your body will adjust to this. If you are older... Try it at 74F-76F-78F and see your comfort settings.
Do you think older ages prefer a warmer temp? Thanks. Also, does this mean that seniors should be getting more sun?
can you explain more about being EMF sensitive and how that affects this?
@@sl4983 - Depends on the "EMF Level". There is something that affects the Human Body which I can not say. I'm trying to protect something I have invented. But here is what I can help you with. The Human Body absorbs and expels Radiation, which is from the Sun itself. It's a daily cycle too. Every day, you will need the Sun and then when you sleep, you expel what is known as Decay Radiation. So when you sleep, you need to go lower than "absorbing" so the next day, your body can absorb again. It's a very complicated discovery... YES, that is why it's hard to sleep during the day. In short... To get the right temperature for your body, you need to test these 3 settings... 70F - 68F - 66F - 64F (Low 4th). Test each increment 2-3 days, if you wake up refreshed and less tired, then you know your level - EMF Sensitivity !!!
*NOTE:* This will prove that "EMF Sensitivity" doesn't exist, but it's a cause. I also invented something too, it's in my vids.... The Wonder Bracelets !!!
@@sl4983 - *Answer:*
*Q.* Do you think older ages prefer a warmer temp?
*A.* During the day, yes. But at night, you want to go lower.... See the above suggestions.
*Q.* Does this mean that seniors should be getting more sun?
*A.* YES, you need to be in the sun more because as you get older, your 'Internal Battery' gets weaker. By charging, you will digest better, and other functions will get better.... Only ONE problem.... When Radiation Decays, it will create havoc in "older" body. That is why & how I invented The Wonder Bracelets !!!
Biggest draw on your electric bill is the ac, I do exactly as he says 84/78 using a wifi controlled thermostat save allot of money so far and I help the environment by not running the unit so hard. Just do it!
Your ac does not. Effect the environment. Global warming does that.
That is me
Hello, my temperature is about 81 degrees. It's a little too hot for me but when I turn the thermostat down about one or two degrees. It will stay on for about 30 mins or the thermostat will go up about two or three degrees. Now, my a/c is running nonstop. I constantly have to keep adjusting the thermostat. I'm in Texas and it's too hot to keep adjusting the thermostat. What can I do? I have an upstairs and downstairs. I have three fans going plus the ceiling fan just to keep cool. I have a Honeywell battery-powered thermostat. I always put fresh batteries in once a month.
put it on a temperature and leave it alone. constantly changing the temperature will result in the unit running almost all the time. Keep all the registers in each room open. Shutting registers and doors confuses the thermostat. Close drapes, shutters etc. I know that most people like light coming in but in southeast Texas, that just doesn't work in the summer. I live in Houston and i Keep my thermostat on 78 all the time. It runs for a few minutes, then it cuts off. Constant running will cause freeze over. Running fans will cause the "feel-like" temperature to go down as much as 5 degrees. So since mine is set at 78 and I am running fans in the room that i am in, the effective temperature is 73. I have to adjust it to 79 at night because it's uncomfortably cold. Running fans only affect you if you're in that particular room, so leaving a fan on in a room that you are not in just moves the air around and is not good to you.
I live with two women. And they refuse to understand how an air conditioner works. I like to keep the AC set at 74. But on really hot days of course the indoor temp will rise above that. So I’ll come home and the the temp in the house maybe a say 76. The women here will set the AC on 70. I try to tell them that all that does is make the AC work harder without lowering the temp. For some reason they don’t get that. And we fight for an hour until they finally give up. Not saying all women do this. Iknow better. But I get so tired of arguing with them.
I need my question answer please i dnt wanna a 2 or 3 hundred bill my ac wasnt working so the maintenance guy put antfreeze but he touch the thermostat i had it set wgere ut comes on nd then shuts off now i dnt remember wht temperature thats. Please help
I have a 2 story home, I set my upstairs to 78, my downstairs is set to 76 or 75, is that the best way to set them? also, my outside unit sweats to ware there is water constantly around the unit...Is that normal?
Try it at 72F and you will see how comfortable it will be and YES, your body will adjust to this. If you are older than 45yo... Try it at 74F-76F-78F and see your comfort settings.
NOTE: Sweating from AC is normal !!!
What if you have pets you can leave them in the HOT HOME
Yesterday it was 105 degrees. I set the thermostat at 80 degrees. During the hottest part of the day the a/c cycled on for about 14 minutes and 7 minutes off. Will that run cycle put too much stress on the ac? I own a Bryant Model 577C-A.
I wouldn't be concerned about it. Systems are designed to 95 degrees and below. So higher than that and your system will work harder. Sounds like you're sized just fine.
@@foxfamilyheatingandaircond4696 Thank you letting me know.
Mine is at 67 year round.
My ac unit was reset by accident. I used to have it set at 77 and at 79 is when it would turn back on. I just don’t know how to set it back to that? Can you please help me? In other words I had it set 2 degrees higher than my set temp at 77 so it would turn OFF at 77 but turn back on when temp in house would reach 79 and I really want to set it back like that! Does anyone know where is the setting that I need to do please?
Thermostats really run on time and not temperature. If you set your thermostat at 77 your unit should come on just before the temperature displayed is 78. That is why you can look at you thermostat and will still be running when both the internal temperature is 77 and you have the thermostat set for 77. Do a youtube search on "how do thermostats work."
@@JerrlEvans thanks but I already fixed it. I called the AC people and I got it back to a 2 degree difference like I had it. I have it set on 77. It turns off at 77 and back on when it hits 79. 👍🏻
I have an old-school thermostat what should I put it on to cool the house and then it shut off automatically so it will not keep running
It depends on what you are comfortable at. Try 75 for a while and see how that feels. If you need it cooler try 73. I know some people who run it at 68! I also know people who keep it at 80 or 82. So it really just depends on you.
Thank you for your reply to my question
Yep depends on the house...my house is a 90s era 2 story home...It feels good on 72 because the air gotta flow upstairs also...So if I was to set it on 75 it takes forever to kicks on then the upstairs becomes hot quick lol
78 degrees on a south Texas summer I don’t think so. I’m still wanting to find my perfect temperature and I think 74 degrees is good. I’m in 73 right now but I think 74 would be perfect.
74 is perfect!
I put mine at 70
I keep mine at 73
I have mine set at 90f during the summer time cause temperatures here can get up to 100f.
That is unusually high. If you don’t like it to be to cold, I would recommend 78- 80.
I recommend 70-76F mainly 74-76F because 70F isn’t easy without air con
@@Itz_camz-YT At night I prefer to keep my house at 69F.
I have no air con but if I did then I would keep it 69f at night but because I don’t it’s around 70-78F at night
Do not like it to be to cold, so what temperature should the air conditioner be?
Off
77F
wait, the people saying they set it to 70-80 that to me is like having the daggon heat on when its 100 degrees out😩 maybe i just dont understand this stuff lmao
Naw it’s just old comments weather has change 70 on ac would do nun rn 😂
@@Thatboiiimike_ i know right 😆 God Bless you sir
Wtf would I set my AC at 74 then when I’m home 84 Tf
Ok my wife keeps lowering the temp and I want to hook up a trick thermostat how do I do it
paul marchese get a nest thermostat. You can download an app and program it with your phone. Whenever you suspect your wife has turned it down you can change it while you are anywhere with your phone. Just don’t reveal the magicians secret. Also I know it can work because I have tricked my parents who want to keep the house at 75 in the summer cause they get too cold. If you really want to get fancy set up the nest somewhere she can’t find it or reach it and get an old thermostat with batteries so she thinks she has control but in reality its a fake. Placebo effect.
Matthew B. 😹😹😹 man you cannot be trusted I swear. Lmao
It’s 100 outside! 70 is too warm
It’s 115 where I’m at
I keep mines on 67
@@Thatboiiimike_ I like 67-69
should I turn off the AC when I am out for vacations?
I wouldnt turn it off but set it much higher than you would if you were home. Keeps the humidity out of the house so you don't get mold.
68
I feel like 74 is a good temp.
For the summer couldn’t agree less but not winter that would be 74F summer for me and
66F winter for me
One time I went to a friends house and I saw the ac on 92 degrees it was burning in there not even 5 minutes in and I was sweating
I don't get how people can do that, my elderly friend would do that in the Summer where I told her to at least put it down when she's not home to freshen it
My girl sets the A/C at 67, I had a knee surgery and the cold makes it hurt and gets kind of numb. How can I make the thermostat look like it's at 67 but feels like 70...
Or you could just stand up for urself and tell her the cold makes ur damn knee hurt so maybe she can try to be more compassionate!! LOL 😂 🤷🏻♀️

Hey mine is on 65 all summer from may to October I live in NYC! I would die at 78 that’s boiling hot and no breeze in the house.... They are trying to pay as little as they can on electric why have ac at all
With this logic i should have my AC at 85 with it being 105 outside…no.
My house says 81 and I got it on 60 it go as low as 50... but when on 50 it still be like 78 do I need a new unit I only been her my 2nd summer I assume it was new they installed it after I moved in
You should never turn your thermostat down that low as it can damage your central air unit because you are over working the unit. You should not cut it down any lower than 65. It's never going to reach that temperature if it's really hot out anyway. I think 73 or 74 is a perfect setting but some people like it freezing and I don't like it that cold.
Really the dial should only be a 20 degree differential from the temperature outside (example if it's 90 outside your thermostat shouldnt be at less than 70 but NEVER below 65)
Lol 78 my husband will never 👎.
Stereotypical man! 😂
would setting my ac to 79 be ok?
Yes it's cheaper for you as well when you're not home
John Lucio I just shutoff my ac this month and started using a window ac and a portable ac unit
@@Chris-is-awesome my aunt does the same she would pay 400 cause people lived there they left so she just uses her new window unit so maybe 90 bucks for her in total maybe

It’s very simple. Like me you probably have the minimal requirement a/c unit and horrible insulation.
Why replace all those things without verifying they are bad? Something like a capacitor can easily be checked with a cheap meter.... as well as thermostat, and fan...
If it's blowing hot air, you could have a refrigerant leak.
It's amazing how people think setting it at 55 will be colder yes it will drop the temperature because it will take long to shut down or not shut down at all...but it doesn't mean it's blowing out 55° when they see 78° they think it's blowing out 78° ...lol
Exactly! I go through this all summer long with my room mates.
I put a brick through my AC unit cause I like it HOT!!!!!!!
Consider it repaired!!!!! 😉
These things costs thousands. The tech says it will go as low as 55. Then you set it to 70. And its struggling. It's 80 outside
Feel free to copy and paste ººººººº
People don’t listen to energy star. Put the themorstat to your own liking. Whatever temperature feels comfortable to you.
Yep
Are they ordering you? It's their recommendation, which I think is spot on.
Anyone that sets their thermostat at 78 definitely don't live in Louisiana.lmao
78 is too hot, for me. Mine is set at 74.
@@missylou82 I'm from Mississippi and I keep mine around 72, sometimes 70.
I didn't know 78 feels different in different states
@@sl4983 he’s obviously referring to the fact that it’s extremely hot in Louisiana during the summer months. I agree! I live in Florida and the summers can be unbearable. My house is 71 at night when sleeping and 74 during the day because during the heat of the day it may struggle to reach 74 when it’s 102 outside 😂
@@jacobmcdonald853 I guess I have a higher heat tolerance, but my genetics is South American. In northern California, it was 100 today but my AC is set to 81.
78 degrees wow. I used 68 last year I warmed it to 72 this year and it's still too hot. You guys gotta chill cause cooling to 70 isn't anything. Try heating from -15 in the winter your cheap coming bills don't even compare.... Rookies
Literally like wtf are they talking about lmao it’s hot AFFFF in my house when it’s 78. 78 sounds astronomical to me
@@travisstillion4055 Wow you must really sweat it when you go outside and it's 90.
78 degrees?!? I would die! I am way to old and fat for all that!
haha come to Texas where we have to keep it at 80 thanks to power surges
78 you might as well turn it off and save your money!
Ong😂
Put that bih on 68
5 dollars tell him to go away
78 are you nuts
78F!?!?!? BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
78 omg I would die if I keep mine on 78 I like it on 68 or 69 in my house
Same here.
Maybe you can help me to understand something.
Some people will turn the temperature up/down depending on the season.
I believe if you do that the unit will have to work harder to get to the desired temperature and nonstop.
My unit will shut itself on/off when it gets the the temperature I like.
Hehe same here
The Human Body absorbs the Sun's Radiation, it starts at 72F Degree. As you get older, the body needs more Radiation to function, which lots of people including ALL the best scientists in the world do not know. Well, they have a slight bit of clue, but THEY do not know that our body needs Radiation to survive. The best Temperature for the Human Body is 72F and sleep is 70F. If you are EMF Sensitive, set it at 74F - 76F. If you are older, like 65+, you need at least 76F - 80F.
*NOTE:* Try it at 72F and you will see how comfortable it will be and YES, your body will adjust to this. If you are older... Try it at 74F-76F-78F and see your comfort settings.
thanks alot captain obvious
