I might have got the message heading wrong but thought I would share this observation to expand on the topic earlier this week.
I was reporting on the effects of setting our thermostat back to 16C (60F at night. The last two nights it didn't get below freezing, about 2C 35F outside. The indoor temperature didn't get down below 19C or about 64F and of course it took much less time to bring the house up to temperature in the morning.I would conclude that the money saving efficiency would depend a lot on how cold it gets, obviously. Clearly we didn't use any gas for heat the last two nights and we certainly would have had we not set the temperature back. The heat wave has sadly passed. When I got into the shower this morning it was raining out and a couple of degrees above freezing outside. By the time I got out it had dropped 4C and just a little over half an hour later when I got to work it had fallen 12C. About 22F drop over about an hour. The rain turned to blowing snow with white out conditions and they closed the highways both the south highway and the west one and they closed the schools. It was a pretty quiet outpatient day at the hospital today.
