26°C for me. I live with my son & he enjoys wearing as little as possible at home. Cold also makes him feel depressed. I’m alright with both hot and cold.
Damn 26 is toasty. I get hot if it’s 21 in my home. I warm rooms individually but mostly it’s 19 or 20 degrees. I don’t like to go outside and have too much of a difference.
During the day usually at 66°F (19°C), maybe bump it up to 68°F (20°C) if we’re feeling unusually chilly still. At night we usually drop it down to 62/63°F (around 17°C).
Holy fuck. Are you all just hanging out in your house wearing your winter coats all day or something? I can’t imagine how uncomfortable that must be
I mean a hoodie and sweat pants and I’m good in those temperatures. I find it easier to warm up than to cool off.
I also heat to like 18-20°C. Just wearing a hoodie is more than enough, most of the time. And for extra warmth while couching maybe a blanket. 26°C would be uncomfortably warm to me, even in just a tshirt. That’s summer temperatures. Above 20°-ish are tshirt temps.

I have a big old robe, flannel pajama pants, and slippers I wear around the house in the winter.
In winter it’s a very normal thing to be a little cold. If every household on the planet aimed for 26 while it’s 0 outside, the energy needed would to heat up would be gigantic.
As someone else said, you just need some warm clothes and socks and you’re fine at 19 degrees.
Edit : not a parent, so I don’t know if it’d fine for children
A brisk 18 kelvin.
26C would make me wake up so hot I’d be vomiting I think
We’re usually at 67F at night, 68 to 70F during the day, but I’m baking so the extra 2 degrees from 68 to 70 is usually from the oven.
69F
60-68F. It took a week for me to notice my heater was put once, though, so I could go lower. Just don’t want to have to worry about pipes freezing.
16°C during the day, ~20ish in the evenings. Still running an oldfashioned boiler setup. Would love to eventually move to a heatpump. Diesel ain’t cheap.
65 F or 18.5 C. A little colder at night. It varies as my wife sleeps hot so it depends how warms she is feeling that evening.
All rooms have their own thermostat. 19-21°C.
I’d go colder at night, but we have a newborn who doesn’t do blankets yet. Need to keep it kind of even for her sleeping bags.
I would like to keep it at 21°C, but since I live in one of the top floors of a multi-story building, along with some apparently reptilian downstair neighbours, I can’t get below 26°C…
Edit: typos
70°F
i am in a mild climate, so it doesnt have to work too hard.
I’m in the Chicago area and this is what we keep ours at.
73° F
26°C people represent!
Might be smart to check your son’s iodine, T4-hormone, and maybe T3 levels, as iodine affects the thyroid (body’s thermostat valve) and T4 is produced by it to be partly converted into T3 elsewhere. T4 and T3 activate heating. If not low, try some tyrosine or iodine anyway.
I have some gut illness with malabsorption, so the above over-the-counter tricks don’t help much. I’m also skinny and can’t gain weight. If suspecting bad gut, test for food intolerances by mediator release test or immunoglobulin G (expect false positives and negatives), or try an elimination diet (like rice and meat only for a month).
Between 69 and 73 F
Or
20.5 to 22.77 c
Usually at 71 during the day and 68 at night
We leave it off. It’s 61 in here right now and I like to bundle up. I hate any amount of heat. I like to be chilly.
