I’m admit I’m fortunate enough to live in the San Diego area, so I almost never turn on my furnace. If I do, it is to take the “cold snap” out of the air, and I turn it off 30 minutes later. (Fun fact: my furnace is still original from when my house was built… in 1973!)
I live in New England (east cost) it gets cold, but, I like it.70 max unless we’re sub zero with wind. Then it might bump it a degree or 2 (old drafty house) just ran out of oil last night (2 am) had to go to buy 30 gallons of diesel, because it’s been negative digits with 35 mph winds this last week. Waiting for a delivery of oil hopefully tomorrow.
@yakkoTDI me too! I like bundling up and wearing hoodies around the house. Can’t do that if it is 70. 70 is shorts weather for me.
@shampshire 60 is still shorts weather for me. I do have to put socks on below 65 though.

Bear in mind, we also (and for no discernible reason!!!) have the highest utility rates in the entire flipping 50 states!

451℉ is definitely too hot.
