Several years ago, I had a very lucrative, outdoor job over the winter. Between acclimating to the cold and long underwear, I would be roasting in “room temperatures”. I lived alone, and was only home weekends and about 6 hours a night.
I turned my thermostat down to 50F, put an oil-filled radiator-style space heater on a timer in my bathroom, and a heated mattress cover on my bed.
Yes, you can save an ass load of money on heating bills.
If you have plumbing in exterior walls, you need to be careful. I had to leave the cabinets under my kitchen sink open to get some heat back to the pipes.
Is there a quick+dirty F -> C conversion? I know its something something * 0 + 32 or some shit but I’d love a super loose rule or affirmation of that if you know
