Do you and your dh disagree on the air conditioning / heat settings?

LOL YES!

For the longest, he insisted that we turned it OFF when we left the house or went to bed. I finally got him to stop doing that! He was more worried about it causing an electrical problem or a fire, but I got him to see that it was actually MORE taxing to turn it off, then have it work extra hard to bring the temp down again when it got turned back on.

To an extent. I could lbe happy without having it at all, but being overheated makes him physically ill. So we leave it off as long as we can, then keep it at the highest temp he can tolerate - 80 degrees.

No, we do not disagree, we set it at one temp. for the heat and one temp. for the air.

No because I basically let him turn on the AC when he gets too hot.

my Dh would keep it cold enough to hang meat .. I settled the fight by a programable thermostat ...

YES!!!! DH says I am an eskimo...I always want it cold in the house.....

We both would prefer not to use air, as our house gets a wonderful breeze most days and we both enjoy that. On the few days we use air, we agree of 76. I'm always cold so it works for me, and cuts out the humidity for him.

We disagree and he drives me nuts as there is no inbetween w/ him. If he doesnt have the air on then he has the fireplace/space heater going. I love the in between when you have the windows open so we give each other a hard time about it

yes!!

we do not have air conditioning but we do fight over the heating(baseboard electric). i think he and the kids can put on a sweater(we each have several) in winter and slippers on their feet( we all own a pair) and keep the heat down...but he jacks it up as he likes to be toasty warm then b*& ches about how much the hydro is when the bill comes in.grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
