I think the question should be: "At what temperature do you keep your homes?"

I generally like about 68f, but prefer to sleep at about 64f. The neighbors keep their place at 78f. I realize as we get older, some need to be warmer. You are still showing out as a plant. Seems innocuous enough. Kind of like the plastic potted plant in the corner of the dentist's office. Shirley you jest?

I have a friend who keeps his house at 53 F in the winter. I wonder what the metabolic / health affects could be.

70 in the daytime 64 at night! That's us, with a bedroom window cracked at night. Well those temps are what the hallway thermostat reads - the bedroom by morning is often colder!

I have a friend who keeps his house at 53 F in the winter. I wonder what the metabolic / health affects could be. Mold... About 10 years ago I was working for a contractor doing siding repairs / remodeling. Contractor got a remodel job where a deceased professor had lived. The home was built in the 70’s. The professor never did any improvements or upkeep on the place. The home was full of mold. A specialized contractor came in to remove the mold as we could not touch it. I asked one of the mold workers how dangerous was mold. He laughed and said there was more mold in Blue Cheese salad dressing. Also said if your immune system is good, you have nothing to worry about.

71 pretty much year round. What made a lot of difference was putting in an automatic Aprilaire humidifier a couple years back. The humidity level is kept at a constant 38-42% humidity level and more moist air sure is more comfortable in the winter and seems to hold the heat in the house better.
My other auto is a .45
