Are there any months in which you do not run A/C or heat? If so, how many?
Please answer in the poll.

My wife and I need it cold when we sleep, regardless of the time of year.

Heat or AC is always on, with AC always on at night.

Wow, AC in winter. Just turning the heat down/off doesn't cut it?

It gets too stuffy and opening the windows keeps it too cold.

Apartment. I have to imagine it’ll be different circulation once we move to a house.

A better question would have been what temp do you keep your AC at in the summer. Then the next day, what temp do you keep your heat at in the winter. Go by 2 degrees for each choice.

79 or higher
77-78
75-76
etc

There’s about a 2-3 month period where I don’t need AC and just leave windows open. Think I run the heat for one week per year.
