So at work today, the discussion of household heating and gas/electricity bills came up (entering winter Down Under), and I commented that we have our central heating set to 14 Celsius (approx 57 Freedoms) overnight, and off during the day/evening. We find that 14 is quite comfortable under a fluffy doona/duvet. I was warmly mocked (well natured), and informed that something closer to 24C (75F) is appropriate, day and night.

Surely not… right?

    57°F is pretty darn cold 🥶 how cold does it get at night there??

    We do 66°F in Winter, 77°F in Summer. This is in Northern US, I’d say most days our temps range from ~-10°F to ~+95°F.
