Best temperature to keep your house? 2 Years, 1 Month ago Karma: 0  
I'd like to know what is the recommended temp to keep your house at during the night, day, summer, winter, etc...? Is there an ideal temp for energy efficiency and cost? Of course you have to be comfortable though!

According to progress energy (http://www.progress-energy.com/custservice/carres/energytips/ac.asp), the ideal setting for cooling your house is to set the AC to 78 degress or higher. They say that you save 7 percent of your bill for each degree higher. Also turn off your AC or leave it at a higher temp when you are not home.

During the winter, progress energy recommends setting your house to at least 68-70 degrees. They also say that you save 7 percent of your bill for each degree lower. So keep it at the lowest comfortable setting.

A good house owner should know the right temperature to maintain. This could lessen your electric bill for dramatically if done seriously. Aside from the temperature, you also have to check your windows and other factors that affect the room temperature. Roofers
