The thermostat

Recommended Posts

Let's say it is 78 degrees in the house and you would like it to be colder. Would you say you're going to turn the air up or down?

I really dont think you're gonna get the answer your're looking for with this poll. It seems already everyone has a different answer. What about this one...hey get your ass over to the thermostat and make it colder in this damn room! that will surely get the point across.

If i wanted it to be colder i would turn the air(flow) up ;)

Or at least thats how i interpret it. You're not doing anything to the air, but the flow.

78 is a good house temp.You dont need to change the temp range, just turn on the ceiling fans on...;)

Sorry I am a cheap ass when it comes to the heater and air conditioner. I dont use them unless it is super hot or super cold.

Turn the a/c off ... they are ruining the planet. .. 25C isn't too hot



Come live in Florida during the summer. I bet you wouldn't last a week without a/c! :ph34r:

And the numbers I gave were just an example, I don't put the air on lower than 78. For one thing, it's too expensive!

I agree, it was just an example. The question was posed because I was wondering if other people say "up" or "down" to make it colder. Some people think of the thermostat in their head and say down, others think provide a cooler house and say up.

When ever my wife have this discussion it takes at least two exchanges to figure out what we're doing.

Wife standing at the thermostat....

Me 'what are you doing?'

Her 'Turning the air up'

Me ' It's hot in here!'

Her 'That's why I'm turning the air up!"

Me 'You mean the temperature down?'

Her 'YES!"

Me 'Oh, okay."

We've only been married 4 years but I don't see this changing in the forseeable lifetime.:|

I give up. I still don't know what "20 of 10" means when talking about time. IT'S 20 TO 10! >:( And it's POP. You bake with Soda!


Hmmm what else can I bitch about?

I predict $400 monthly electricity bills in your future. There's a reason why we all have ceiling fans in each room. ;)

Bah, your only saying that cause your corner of the planet has no need for A/C.

Bring on global warming, it's nearly April an I'm still at 5-7C:ph34r:
