What is the recommended temperature to keep my house cool during the Summer months?

Question

I am trying to find ways to save money on my electric bill.

Answer 1

you can invest in insulation and claim it to receive a tax credit. do you have a digital thermostat? you can program it to turn down the A/C when you're not home and at night when outside temperatures are lower. Trees in the yard can provide shade and keep your house from heating up as much...there are probably many more ways but these are the only ones that come to mind at the moment.

Answer 2

70 degrees

Answer 3

Try to keep it as warm as you can without being miserable.  Turn the ceiling fans on.  Try 78 degrees.  I know what you mean--with gas prices everybody is scrimping!
