Lowering the temperature will barely decrease your gas bill. Just pay to keep everyone warm its not worth the lower quality of life of having to wear sweaters in your own home.

When we had a full house that's how we did it. But just 2 of us now and no one is downstairs for 12+ hours per day. Seems like lowering the temp would've been more substantial than we're getting. We are using less gas according to the charts they send with the bill, but with the prices going up it obviously seems to not matter.

Thanks for your reply.

Agreed. I have babies at home but we keep it at 70 year round. I’ll even have it up to 72 at times. Not enough savings to be worth the discomfort. Penny wise dollar foolish.
