A few ideas:
1. Keep it at 80 for a couple of weeks, you'll get habituated quickly enough and will suffer less outside as a byproduct.
2. Use the AC only in the room you are actually in and close the door.
3. Unless it's very very very warm outside, and once you got used to higher temperatures a couple open windows or a simple fan will do wonders.
Source: I live in Rome, I have AC but I only turn it on when it's over 95 outside, because I have thick walls and good circulation.
- modoc 12y agoEveryone is a bit different. If it's over 76 degrees in my house, I am mentally more sluggish, and have a very hard time sleeping. I don't mind sweating and being hot during the day, but at night I just can't sleep well. Also my computer gear has a tendency to overheat when things get much over 80 in the house at large (home office runs hotter).
