In the last month or so, it's dawned on me that heating our house at night is a waste of money.
I mean, we're all snuggled in our beds, why heat up 3000 square feet of space that nobody is using?
In the morning, we turn on the gas fireplace and whatever room heat we need.
Last night I set the thermostat to 55 degrees, and the main heater never came on, even though it dipped to 31 degrees outside.
What is your thermostat set on?
I would appreciate hearing other people's stories on how they heat their homes, how much they pay for heating per month in the winter, and any alternative sources of home heat they may be using.
We use electric blankets and space heaters as well.
Thanks!
