What's your night-time, air-con temperature?

Featured Replies

25, and I sleep naked wink.png

Also 25 at night, although I have a problem with air con, dry throat, so have it on an hour before going to bed,

what I think is strange is that is the temperature for my central heating in the UK winter, many years ago.lol

Day or night 22-24 depending on the efficiency of the AC unit.

If it's a hotel, generally the lowest setting as they tend to have "optimistic" thermostats.

Daytime fan only.

26C when sleeping.

24C for 'activities'.

In Thailand, whatever the hotel has it set, often have to turn it off as too cold. Some hotels remove controls to adjust setting.

27 - 29c if used at all.

Regardless if in own apartment or staying in a hotel.

Did set it to 25c daytime in a hotel I recently stayed at for a while then put it at 27c for over night.

bedroom is cooled down to 18ºC by two aircons. when i go to bed i switch off one unit and adjust the setting of the other unit to 25ºC.

temperature throughout home (except my study) during daytime 26-27ºC, study 25ºC.

Bedroom aircon on 25 C plus fan.

Daytime only fan.

Nighttime aircon for me is open windows.

Normally 25 but the problem I have is more of fresh air movement rather than temperature. When the system gets to it's desired temperature I find the air a bit stale, so push it down a bit. Really I must get a fan and then I could probably not bother with the ac at all and save a fortune on the old power bill.

Actually the OP reminded me of when, as a tourist, I used to stay at the Westin Grande Sukhumvit. For reasons explained above my room was the coldest place I knew on Earth. Prior to this the coldest place I had experienced was Amsterdam in November, but let's not go there. If the system wasn't cooling the air was so stale that I got a headache. So I would set the temp to 18 and get the thickest duvet. Seems crazy but it worked.

During the day, intermittently use the a/c and set at 24. At night set it at 22 and use the 1 hour timer, but have the Hatari blowing on high all night, just sleep with a sheet, no blanket.

Normally I turn on the air 1 hour before bed and set it at 23 and then 26 for sleeping

24 C during the night and 28 C daytime

29 at night only to remove the humidity and sweat from our spirited debates...fan in the day is the recipe . Ps indians who asked for blankets charge 650 Baht ea. (personally i preset a few rooms at a reasonable temp and if u get Indians or similar tell them its preset but available to be cooler if An additional 700 baht is paid .Commonsense rules most of the time ... exceptions of coursepost-167617-0-04261800-1384685501_thumb.

Marriages are known to have broken down because of air conditioning wars.

Can't confirm that, but the GF sleeps in her own bedroom because of A/C preferences.

27 - 29c if used at all.

Same same.

May put it on for a blast at 25c if I have come inside from working on the garden.

it is set between 25 & 27 , usually 27 most nights and days but when really hot 25 gets a run.

25 at work, fan in the evenings and weekends, 25 at bedtime.

25° seems perfect to me in the bedroom, in the living room most of the time fans are enough. I have a fan with a postion named wind, that is to say the speed changes constantly, very pleasant, since I have it I almost not put air-con any more during the day.

I rarely use the aircon, but when I sleep with an aircon, it's set to 27-28 degrees.

20 C night and 25-26C daytime. Would prefer 17-18C at night but wife would be as a ice cube in morning.

27. If it gets lower than that, I start to think about lighting a campfire on the floor to keep from freezing to death.

I always used a fan only in the daytime unless in the bedroom for nookie then down to 20 deg C.

For sleeping purposes air con on for 1 hour and fan on all night. No sheets or quilt.

22 day or night..

Room temperature.

I only turn my aircon on if I have guests in. Never got round to buying a fan.

I don't need it. If I'm in the apartment I'm just wearing shorts so I'm not that hot.

It also makes me feel a bit shit, blocked / running nose, course throat, dry eyes etc.

I spend a good chunk of my day in a coffee shop and even though their aircon is on super low and you don't really feel it too much I'm constantly coughing, sniffing, have a throat full of gunk etc.

Soon as I leave the coffee shop I'm fine again. Aircon isn't good for me.

If I am sharing my bed with the wife, than the room remains cold enough without an air con.

i know for sure that I kept it at 20 degrees during my first two or three months in Thailand. I kept it at 27 after two years, and that was cool enough for me.

The sheer luxury of turning the Air Con down low,and pulling your quilt up to your neck, just a little bit of fine tuning on the Air con remote,guarantees a relaxing sleep,and something to look forward to up in the village,after sweating all day.

23 in car, 26 at home. Except Oct-Feb when its fan only.

Any colder and I feel like i'm in a shopping centre.

My preferred temp is about 2 degrees lower than the outside temp at night. Just enough so the A/C keeps running intermittently, circulates some air and removes the moisture.

It's not the temp, it's the humidity that bothers me- sleeping in sweat and all. Plus, I'm allergic to mold, and mildew and everything that grows in this humid climate.

In fact, I'd shut the A/C off at night if I had a dehumidifier to keep the moisture down. That would be after I had cooled the place down from the oven it is when I get home from work.

for me it is 28 C, I like circulating air in the room

27 in bedroom at night, cool enough and dries the air up. Tried using fan only....aint happening!
