To what temperature does your custodian/facilities manager set the HVAC system in the winter?  In the summer?  Our church is in Western Michigan - so cold winters and warm summers. Thanks so much!

Thanks for this question Chad. I'm curious to see how others will answer it. In my household, the debate over the ideal temperature for the thermostat is an ongoing one.  Do we really need it to be cold for sleeping?  :)

I'm partial to 68 degrees F (20 Celsius) for winter settings. 

Answering you from the West Michigan climate as well!

On winter Sundays, we keep our sanctuary at 69 degrees F (20 Celsius), dropping it to 65 (18 C) degrees during the week (when not in use).

On summer Sundays, we keep our sanctuary at 72 degrees F (22 C) , bumping it to 75 (25 C) degrees during the week.

We think consistency is key so people know what to expect since we know we won't be able to please everyone :)
