The heating game

Every autumn I play the game of how long I can go without turning the heat on in my apartment. 😨I actually like keeping things colder but I know at some point I must turn the heat on to keep the pipes from freezing up.

Except in the coldest weather, I usually keep the heat in the low 50s, only turning it up to 60 in the evening when I’m home to be comfortable come the morning. 👏The thermostat often overrides as it’s located downstairs near the heater and heat rises upstairs. Come the coldest time of the year I might leave it constantly around 55 or 60 to ensure it remains warm.

Figuring that I eventually will forgo centralized heating when I own my own house, I doubt I’ll ever get used to keeping it real warm as fires often die down during the night. 🔥Plus keeping it cold can help save energy, cut climate emissions and reduce utility bills.
