We keep it at 78 during the summer and we rarely use the heat during the winter. It gets REALLY hot here during the summer but our winters are fairly mild so we just bundle up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870851 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 12:58:13 +0000 teamjse 870851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me, Dh thinks I'm a polar bear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870746 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 12:36:15 +0000 lovehoneybee 870746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, unless it's freezing in LO's room and then I take they in consideration. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870739 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 12:33:30 +0000 BelugaBean 870739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted me but really, it's LO. I take into account first how she feels and then really that's where it ends. DH used to control it though because he likes it cold. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870691 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 12:21:03 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 870691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He does. He keeps it colder then I like. But if I'm really cold he will turn up the air. He likes to say that I can put on more clothes but he can't take off his skin if he is hot. He's a bit dramatic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870635 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 12:09:52 +0000 Dapple Grey 870635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and he is straight up obsessed with the air ( we live in south fl). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870479 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:38:01 +0000 Adira 870479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NaturallyCathy: I probably should have voted Baby then, instead of Me! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870467 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:35:58 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 870467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both do. We really have to keep ourselves in check during the summer, because while we'd love it to be cooler in the house, it would make our electric bill horrendous. So, we pretty much just keep it at 82 when we're gone, 80 when we're there during the day, and then 78 at night while we sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870455 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:33:16 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 870455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: That's usually my scenario too. Is H sweating? Am I feeling uncomfortable? Then we probably need to turn it down. Hubs can put on another shirt ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870451 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:32:35 +0000 Alivoo01 870451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We discuss it, but the hubby is sensitive to heat and cold. Prefers to keep it at 68 in the summer and 78 or higher in the winter, if I let him. If he ran the thermostat, we'd be broke! LOL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870447 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:32:13 +0000 Adira 870447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Meeee! BUT I try to take into account Hubs' comfort level when I set it. Although now-a-days, I think about the baby first, then me, then Hubs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870359 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:12:56 +0000 MarieJ 870359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do! I should've voted other because I decide based upon If dd is hot or cold. She's hot natured, so it's usually cool in our house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870358 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:12:17 +0000 Smurfette 870358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both! He likes it really cold, but I freeze, so we have to compromise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870331 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:07:05 +0000 Caly 870331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thankfully, each room is temp controlled separately by remote. If we're both in the same room &amp; at odds, who wins is usually a toss up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870313 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:03:32 +0000 Mrs. Twine 870313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We decided together. But I am definitely the complainer. I have a very small range for what feels comfortable, and outside of that (which is most of the time) I will say I am too hot or too cold fairly often. Mr. T is a doll for tolerating the whining! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870311 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 11:03:24 +0000 Mrs. Pen 870311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did other because we fight over it. He will do one thing, then I don't like it and I'll change it when he's not looking! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870288 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 10:55:59 +0000 Foodnerd81 870288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are pretty good about not using it much either way-- we don't mind a little cool in the winter or a little warm in the summer-- but I'm the one with the lower tolerance for it being TOO hot or cold. The other week it was 90 degrees out and I came home and he still didn't have the ac on! So, yeah me. Especially now that I'm pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870264 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 10:48:57 +0000 MrsTiz 870264@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do! I like it cold! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-controls-the-thermostat#post-870262 Thu, 20 Jun 2013 10:48:44 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 870262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You or your SO? </p>
