:) Hi, the builder of our house said to set the thermostat to 62 degrees when ever we take a trip. Last few times that we went on a cruise, or took our trailer out, we just left the furnace at what ever we had it at while living in it. Usually 68 to 70 degrees. Why turn it down? To save a few pennies?
Many snowbirds are gone 6+ months, a 20 degree difference amounts to more than a few pennies. Also many snowbirds become residents of states with no state income tax so they have to stay away for 6 months and a day. At least that is the rule in MN.
