We have dual zone.
Upstairs was at 64 all day, 67 at night while we sleep.
Downstairs was 64 from 8pm-6am. 6am-9am - 67, 9am-5pm - 64 and 5pm-8pm - 67.

When we are home and awake, 70. When we are home and asleep, I think it's 66. When we are not home, 62.

Re: What do you usually have your thermostat set to in the winter??
We have a programable thermastate.
Its a wonderful thing.
We have it at 62 during the day when we are at work and up to 67 when we come home drops down again when we are asleep then back up when we wake up.
Whats funny is when i work from home in the winter i forget that the Temp Drops and then i just turn up the heat.

Re: What do you usually have your thermostat set to in the winter??
Ours is programmed for different temps through the day and night. Really makes no different since I am home all day (as opposed to no one being home and not needing to keep it warm).
I will say that I think the temp is off by at least 4 degrees. I really need to calibrate it, but then I would have to go back in and re-program all my heat and CAC settings and I don't want to do that!!
That said, it's usually about 72 (which if you take into my issue with it not being calibrated correctly, is about 68 degrees). At night, it's about 70 (again, calibrates to about 66 degrees).

Re: What do you usually have your thermostat set to in the winter??
we set it to 70, although the landlord pays for it. if we were paying we would probably set it to 67, but we figure since our landlord refuses to turn on the heat until mid-November, this is how we repay him.
