Everyone
prefers to keep their homes at a different temperature. However, some
temperatures may be better for you than other temperatures. In many cases,
folks base their home temperature on their personal preferences. But there is
actually a healthy home temperature you may want to keep your thermostat at.
This, of course, will vary based on the season and climate you live in. As we
have distinguished winter and summer seasons in Washington and Oregon, we’re
going to base our recommended healthy home temperature off of that.
There’s also
a financial health aspect to this as well. According to Energy Saver, you can
save up to 10 percent a year on your heating and cooling costs just by turning
your thermostat back anywhere from 7 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit from its normal
setting for 8 hours a day. Who doesn’t like saving money?
