How the hell will they regulate this? Just moving the thermostat to a hotter spot will keep the inside temperature below 27°C, while the 'setting' will be the "correct"/legal.
Otherwise... I think it's sad, how we've gone from great economy to being hot inside shops in a year....
- tdido 4y agoIt won't be perfect, but you will have a fair amount of places where it can and will be implemented. Our research centre has central A/C and they announced the change a few days ago.
- hgazx 4y agoThey force shopping centres to show a thermometer where it can be seen.
- rustqt6 4y agoHow can I do this in a hotel? Some hotels don't have a temperature setting above 24 and my ideal is 26. Is the thermostat also the thing that shows the actual temperature or is it somewhere else. Fwiw, it's usually a Honeywell system in hiltons i believe.
- stubish 4y agoSocial pressure is likely enough. Most social rules do not require enforcement beyond the outliers.
- ajsnigrutin 4y agoI'm pretty sure most of the people prefer cooler shopping center and falling governments, than obeying corrupt politicians and being hot everywhere. A few politicians decided to print a bunch of money, and we got the economic crisis, and now a few politicians are in a dick measuring contest with A LOT of taxpayers money and a bunch of dead ukranians, and again, the normal people suffer due to the energy crisis.
- amrocha 4y agoYeah!! Let's stick it to the corrupt politicians by running AC all day and... running out of power I guess???
- Stevvo 4y agoThe Spanish are by far the most politically timid population in Europe. Regulations are follow diligently regardless of how pointless.
- icelancer 4y agoHa - I had a college roommate who would heat up a pan and place it near the "locked" thermostat to ensure the AC stayed on for hours at a time.

- aaomidi 4y agoThese rules never need to be perfect. Just enough to reduce energy usage.
- iancmceachern 4y agoThe same way we regulate toilet flush volume in the US. Over time I'd expect that they legislate in custom-to-spain thermostats that simply don't go lower than 27.
