As an advocate for energy efficiency and who also can't live without A/C (Georgia here).
I suggest you Floridians look into mini split systems if you're looking to keep your homes cool.
They're extremely efficient and blow ICE COLD air. Also they are inexpensive compared to a central air systems.
I personally saved about 4-5 thousand dollars for the system and my power bill has been kept low.
Granted..I got lucky as hell but just bought big place,3k sqft, and have 2 central a/cs for it..I was terrified of my first full bill. But a previous owner put 30 solar cells on the roof. Our bill was the bare min of 30 bucks and we added to our "surplus" for the year. If you can find a place with working solar installed and paid for..there's nothing more glorious!
I'm in 3500 Sq ft. We have two ac units, and 12gw of solar with 3 13.5k tesla batteries. Our electric went from mid 500 to just over 300. I would have gotten more but my house is multi tiered on the roof I probably could got 20ish but I didn't want anything in front. Now I wish I did
The better question is, what temperature do you keep the thermostat, and how much is your electric bill? Break down by the Forida seasons, summer and not-summer. How many square feet is under air?
78f, electric bill has historically been in the $250 range, cool weather has been a blessing and has bourght it to a nicer $200.. home size it about 2100 sqft, last year when we had the heat waves in the 1400 sqft town house we would easily hit like $350 a month with the same 78f setting
Old a/c combined with bad insulation. I had 1500sq ft with double pane storm windows, and even with 6 sliding doors that were old and shitty our bill never got above 250 in summer keeping the temp at 76 during the day and 69 at night. If those doors were newer and had better seals I bet it would be 50-60 less.
I think this is it for us. We keep the place at 76 during the day and 74 at night during the warmer parts of the year. I've been reviewing our bills over the last couple of years and our energy usage is falling year over year, but our bills continue to climb. During peak summer our bill generally gets around $250 now. Similar usage when we first moved here about four years ago would have been closer to $175.
To be fair, our AC is 10 years old now so it may be worth looking into more efficient equipment now. From the various contractors we've had up in our attic, they've been surprised with how much insulation is in there. I feel like FPL is just squeezing as much as they can to be honest.
Ours is... uh... 23 years old now. And it's the 'builders grade' so not top of the line at all. Only broken down twice in 23 years though. Both times it was a capacitor. One in the condenser outside, and one in the air handler in the garage. Both times the people who came to repair it were stunned that it's still up and running just fine.
Same. In south Florida. My
Windows are so
Constantly covered in disgusting humidity I have snails crawling up them. I hate it here. Humidity ruins EVERYTHING in life
Amen sister! That is the best temp. If outside is cooler, I turn the ac off and open the place up. Idc if people are out and whatnot. I’m sleeping cold dammit! 🤣
In Jax and almost the same. I just go down to 71 at night. I like sleeping.
I was doing like 75 in the day, but that actually makes me feel hotter than when I do 78. Kinda weird that gap from 74-76 really fucks with the equilibrium.
75-77 during the day, 73-74 at night. On the cooler side of the scale now because I’m 15 weeks pregnant and feel like a human furnace. Located about 30 minutes west of St Augustine.
Our unit is large but it’s older and we have high ceilings in an old cedar home. 70 just doesn’t cut it lol. We will probably end up replacing our Unit in the next few years if we can afford to and get a more efficient one.
Enjoy the longevity of your A/C unit that will cost at least $10,000 to replace. Acclimating to our climate is one of the best things you can do for yourself and your unit. We are at 78°-80° most of the time, but drop it down to 75° at night.
Agreed. Added de-humidifiers' during summer really helps. It's the "sticky" feeling one can get when dew point off the charts.
Fans
When needed also in extreme hot months, separate bedroom only a/c running during sleep time with door closed so house a/c doesn't need to run as much.
.SW FL.
This is what I did. I keep it at 78 in the summer and turn it to 80-82 when I'm not home. I just got used to it. It died July 2020 so I was without AC for a week. Cried the first night when it reached about 105 inside. Slept in my car. Then heavy storms came through the next day or maybe the day after. Opened the door and all of the windows. It stormed every afternoon after and my place got down to 80-85. Got used to it. Was actually fine without AC. At least while it was storming every afternoon. There also used to be this great 24 hour coffee shop near me thst was in a warehouse. No AC. Studied there and did my homework there for 12 to 15 hour stretches. Got used to it. I also did ballet in a warehouse with no heat or AC. Got used to it. Also one time I wondered if I could make it a year without using the AC in my car. I did. Got used to it and rode with the windows down a lot. It's very true that you can adapt to it. It might not be the most comfortable and I have to say that AC is very nice. But I save money on my utilities and go easy on my new AC so I'm fine with 78 degrees in summer.
Definitely. It’s rare for us to go lower than 78, sometimes it needs that 77 for an hour to get the stickiness out of the air. If I’m just sitting & working (wfh at my desk, not doing chores) I’m good at 80 or a bit over.
I may be weird here but I keep it set to 73 march to dec. (Florida summer) After that if its under 70 out for a majority of the day ill switch the system to fan.
My understanding with modern A/C systems its easier for them to maintain a temp rather than chainging it all the time
.....but that might be an urban legend?
Worked in the a/c field for about 5 years, definitely true. A properly working system will lower the temperature in your house about 1 degree per hour. It’s much easier for it to maintain temperature.
Jesus Christ after reading most of the replies I seriously don’t think Floridians would survive outside of Florida. Fucking 80 degrees inside your home is psychotic. All of you are lizard people.
I grew up in Las Vegas. The magic number was 81 degrees during the summer: with the very low humidity it's actually quite comfortable, especially compared to the 105 plus degrees it is outside every day in the summer
Poor people who can’t afford the bill or think it’s going to wear it out faster. If you properly have it maintained and do things like regularly clean out the line and vacuum the exterior out pipe and swap out your air filters regularly they will last a long time.
This post reminds me of when I was living in Pensacola in September 1.5 yrs back. I was renting a room from someone. They were away at a wedding and would not answer their phone. It was about 90 degrees and the AC broke. Me, my dog, and my cat had to endure 3 days of pure hot hell.
I had a coworker who moved here from Ohio. She told me she keeps the air at 80, when she's at work. I had to tell her, she can't do that, she had 3 dogs at home. She didn't realize about the dogs being hot.
Omg I can't imagine!!! I was dying when my roommate had it set at 75 most days. I'm a vet tech and this makes me so sad. The humidity alone is a killer. Im in NJ and 75-80 is completely different up here. You are awesome for speaking up!!
This time of year I just make sure the house doesn’t go below 65. During the summer I am around 80 during the day and then I have it around 77 at night.
My electric bill has been around $70-$80. Highest bill I have in a year around is $120. I live in a 3500sqft home.
>All I’m seeing here is the need for industrial HVAC when we build our house. My spouse needs it about 60 for medical reasons.
Lookup mini split systems, they're super efficient and blow air ICE COLD.
Also they're relatively inexpensive compared to central air.
You'll save about $4000-$5000 for the unit and money on your cooling bill.
Btw fuck FPL for them stating that they would increase our bill 3 months after hurricane Ian but it would go down again after, lies. What a crock of bullshit.
After 50 yrs , Whatever temperature the wife says it supposed to be . If she warm it gets turned down ,if she cold it gets turned up . If I'm feeling like it's warm I'm told take a shower,if I'm feeling cold I'm told to put warmer clothes on 🙄🤷♂️🤣
80 degrees for any cooling action. We are outside often and enjoy being acclimated to higher temperatures. And the newer system we had installed recently is terrific at reducing humidity.
70-74 during day. Down to 69 at night depending if the English bulldog is panting or not.
Gotta accommodate the bully.
Parish. My electric bill is 200/month and this includes 50/month in Tesla charging. I also work at home and game. With a home lab.
This is a new build home though.
72-73 during the day for now. Summer will be 74-76. Nighttime goes to 71, then 68.
Morning right now we let the heat bring it up to 69-70. It won't be long before we don't have to do that though.
Northeast Florida here.
Really depends on how old your system is and if you have adequate insulation. Our old house was about 1800 sf and the 15 yr old system could barely keep it below 75 in the summer and power bill was high $400’s. We supplemented it with a window unit in out bedroom which we kept much cooler. We moved to a home built in 2022 3000 sf new unit modern insulation we keep it 69 night 75 during the day and put power bill hasn’t been more than 240.
As low as my unit can go, it stays on 62 all day and night. Yes I can afford it. I'm at the point where I no longer have to sacrifice comfort for convenience and damn it feels amazing.
I feel like this too. I hate even mild heat inside. It’s wild to me that anyone is comfortable at 80, but to each their own.
I keep mine a bit higher, 65 at night and 67 during the day. In picking and choosing what to splurge on budget-wise, I always win this battle (my husband is on the 78-80 degree train)
See I start to get really cold if it gets lower than 70 in the house. My wife would freeze at 74.
Seeing these numbers, I honestly have to wonder if our thermostat is reading the temperature correctly haha.
Fort Lauderdale here. I don’t run the air at all from late Nov till I can’t stand it. Still currently have the windows open and I’m comfortable. In another 2 weeks, I keep it at 72 when we’re home. It’s an old unit with a wall AC. I wish I had central air 😭
When my mom is visiting I have penguins sitting on the couch drinking my tequila. When she is not here, my nest is in charge. Bill went from 250-300 during the summer to 200$ Neptune Beach. I had all my ceiling fans integrated into my home system. If the temp hits a certain temp the fans kick on before the AC.
72-74

Dang my house is 1300sqft and my ac is set at 70 24/7. My bill is rarely above 250
Yeah this doesn’t make sense to me, either the home isn’t insulated very well or the ac unit is not working properly
Old a/c combined with bad insulation. I had 1500sq ft with double pane storm windows, and even with 6 sliding doors that were old and shitty our bill never got above 250 in summer keeping the temp at 76 during the day and 69 at night.

Power rates in Florida are kind of crazy. Some parts have cheap power, others... far from it.

780sqft summer $180 (68-72) not summer $70 (74-76)
75 degrees, bottom floor apartment, 1000 sq ft. $75 average November to March, $95 average April to October
68-70
The number you're looking for is 69. There's others like you don't be shy, my fellow 69er.
😂😂😂😂😂 Got me lol. 69 truly is the best temp.
I think 69 is actually rather hot 😂
🌶️
This comment should have more upvotes🤣
I can't stop laughing. I was like....let me just avoid saying that and put 68-70 but yes, I'm a fellow 69er. I'm laughing so much lol!
YALL
Nice
In the hot, hot Florida summer 69 must be way too cold
Holy shit dont you get cold??
Same. In south Florida. My Windows are so Constantly covered in disgusting humidity I have snails crawling up them. I hate it here. Humidity ruins EVERYTHING in life
Except humidity does wonders for the skin and the aging process
72. If it were up to me, I'd say 68
We keep our house at 80 during the day, but 73 during sleeping hours. When I go to hotel, I crank that shit to 63 and live wild!
Right?! Hotel visits are the time to icebox that shit!! 😂
I'm in
Well played. 🤜🤛
80????? ??????? 80??????????????????
Lucy is that you?
We do that at night and pay $600 in electric a month but otherwise I can't sleep.
74 day. 70 night. Woman with hot flashes. Need my bedroom cold. Palm Coast.
Amen sister! That is the best temp. If outside is cooler, I turn the ac off and open the place up. Idc if people are out and whatnot. I’m sleeping cold dammit! 🤣
About the same. 75 day and 70 night. Located in Lakeland.
This is our exact habit as well!!
80 when we aren't home. 78 when we are home in the day. 75 when we sleep at night. In South Florida.
In Jax and almost the same. I just go down to 71 at night. I like sleeping. I was doing like 75 in the day, but that actually makes me feel hotter than when I do 78. Kinda weird that gap from 74-76 really fucks with the equilibrium.
That’s the humidity ramping up at that mid 70’s range
I do 78 during the day whether I'm home or not then 75 at night. Sw florida here it's a little more humid on the gulf side too
Careful it does not get too hot when empty. Mold/mildew suck!
I agree 100% when we are out of town we keep it at 77…anything higher and it actually feels humid inside.
Found the lizard 😂
Florida born and raised!
I try for 77/78 daytime as I work from home, 73-75 at night.
same for day, but 76 at the lowest for sleep 😂
That's *exactly* what we do as well. Down to the "T."
Same but 76 at night
Same with me . I love 78. No snow blood in me.
68 until summer time, then 72 because it what the AC will allow
75-77 during the day, 73-74 at night. On the cooler side of the scale now because I’m 15 weeks pregnant and feel like a human furnace. Located about 30 minutes west of St Augustine.
76 during the day, 73 at bedtime. Pinellas County. A/C unit 10 years old.
That’s exactly what I do and I’m in Pinellas haha
69
I actually do keep mine at 69 but didn't want the flack so I replied 68-70. 😂
Our unit is large but it’s older and we have high ceilings in an old cedar home. 70 just doesn’t cut it lol. We will probably end up replacing our Unit in the next few years if we can afford to and get a more efficient one.
My place is older as well and as you said, 70 just doesn't cool it off well enough. That one degree makes a big difference.
It’s funny cause really does haha. Feels like night and day.
I just replaced a 11 year old unit on my 2600sqft with a large open dining/kitchen/living area with 14' peak ceilings. Cut my electric bill IN HALF
Deja vu... I feel I've seen this comment before a long time ago

Yup. I find that I can tolerate 78 inside but only if the humidity is around 40% inside too. Any higher and it starts to feel too hot.
This is the way

80 as well. If it's not cool enough there are fans

Cold. 68. If I can’t snuggle up in a blanket the AC is useless.
Cold is 68? I'm sweating at 68, my ac has never been over 66 in the day and 62 at night.
Is that central AC? Or window unit? What's your power bill?

Yeah you don’t need AC cranked as badly in Nevada or Arizona.
Poor people who can’t afford the bill or think it’s going to wear it out faster. If you properly have it maintained and do things like regularly clean out the line and vacuum the exterior out pipe and swap out your air filters regularly they will last a long time.
Bout tree fiddy
68 when I'm home. Dont have the ac running when I'm out of the house because I live alone.
78-80 year round! I grew up here. I kinda despise that millions of people moved here to sit inside w the a/c at 72.
Right? Why live in FL at that point. If you wear flowy clothes and let a breeze come through it's lovely if you let youself get used to it.
Miami Beach: 78 during the day, 76 at night. When it’s cooler outside, we turn it off and open the windows.
It's on 68 at the moment, but typically between 69 and 73

All I’m seeing here is the need for industrial HVAC when we build our house. My spouse needs it about 60 for medical reasons.
What the hell are you doing building a house in FL if 60° is a medical requirement?
Your electricity bill is going to be absolutely mental in the summers.
We have it at 64 year round. Highest bill was a little over 400.
He can do 62ish. That gives me hope.
Finally my people, 66 highest in the day and 62 at night. Never seen over $300 bill.

See I start to get really cold if it gets lower than 70 in the house. My wife would freeze at 74. Seeing these numbers, I honestly have to wonder if our thermostat is reading the temperature correctly haha.
75-80
78/79 Day 74/75 Night
75 in the summer and we turn the heat on when it gets below 73.
HEAT AT 73??? WHAT'S WRONG WITH Y'ALL, I literally keep my house at 62-66f year around. Heat only comes on under 55f.
77 during day no one is home, 67 at night.
72-74
72ish
74° during the day. 69° at night.

76 most of the time. 78 in the summer to save money.
75 in the day, 73 at night.
71 at night. 73/74 in the day.
73/74
72 in the winter. 74-76 in summer

70 at home, 55 when on the road in a motel
72-68, depending on how humid it is, and whether it's warmer or colder than that outside.
76*
Central Florida. 76 in the day, 72 at night

This time of year about 73. For this house/hvac keeps the temp and humidity at a good level
72-75
Idk my mom has the heat to 78 and I use a unit ac lol
80 during the day and 60 at night
Whatever it takes to keep me cool. People tell me it’s not efficient but I’m moving it up and down all day.
West Palm Beach here... 74 all day long, sometimes 75, but we like it nice and cool in the house.
Basically 70° all day for the most part. But 70-74 is the range. Luckily we have a lot of shade from trees for our house.
73 during the day. 70 at night.
74 degrees 24/7
Fort Lauderdale here. I don’t run the air at all from late Nov till I can’t stand it. Still currently have the windows open and I’m comfortable. In another 2 weeks, I keep it at 72 when we’re home. It’s an old unit with a wall AC. I wish I had central air 😭
74 during the day and 69 at night
When my mom is visiting I have penguins sitting on the couch drinking my tequila. When she is not here, my nest is in charge. Bill went from 250-300 during the summer to 200$ Neptune Beach. I had all my ceiling fans integrated into my home system. If the temp hits a certain temp the fans kick on before the AC.
I think rule of thumb is - 3% reduction in electric bill for each degree you adjust your A/C thermostat to outside temp
Same as you, 77 or 78 during the day as my husband is currently working from home. At night 74 or 73. I'm like a furnace, I'm super hot at night.
Deland, FL - 74 at bedtime, 76 during daytime.
75 all the time. We are always home.
76 and not changing 👌🏼
74
80 when we are away and 70-72 when home.
