- pdonis 5y ago> The thermostat is set to 78 not 86 or something. Evidently you are not enrolled in the "smart thermostat" program described in the article, which allows the utility company to remotely raise your thermostat setting regardless of what you set it to. They apparently did that without any regard to the impact it would have on comfort and health.
- thrdbndndn 5y agoI'm talking about the article, not my home. It says "the house had already gotten to 78 degrees". Aagin, the point is the AC is definitely running if the room is only 78F in Houston. Also I think people really overestimate the humidity level indoor. Even if you leave your AC off for 2-3 days, it will not reach 90% RH unless you leave all your windows and doors wide open.
