I'm not as tough as you think, the thermostat hasn't moved from 66, it's just when she's not in the house I noticed that no one complained about 62 degrees so I got to thinking if using a space heater for the rooms the wife occupies could save me the extra 4 degrees elsewhere in the house. What I'm not sure about is if lowering the thermostat in the rest of the house and using a space heater will save any money due to the higher electric cost. I guess I'll have to buy one and run it for a month to see what the damage ends up being. I was just wondering if anyone else had tried this.
