A short podcast episode (host Derek Cole) about unusually warm December weather and how to manage indoor comfort. Key advice: set your thermostat to 'auto' with distinct heating and cooling set points so the system responds to warm days and cool nights. The episode also promotes the Healthy Home Challenge (a free five-day online video series) and Simmons One Hour's "Happy Heat Restoration" offer, whose bonuses expire on December 31. Includes calls-to-action to sign up, share the episode, and connect on social media.

I guess we're gonna welcome to the wild temperature swings of December, right? I mean, you know, it's, it's beautiful, it's beautiful. But you know, to have a 70, 75 degree day in December after Christmas is something brand new, something you don't see a whole lot of. But I think first of the year it's supposed to get back down to the normal as far as winter temps go. But in the meantime, make sure your thermostat is set on auto with these temperature swings. I mean, you want, you want that cooling set point where again, where you're comfortable with. Don't get so hung up on the number as you get hung up on the feel, right? So make sure that cooling temp is where you're comfortable and make sure that heating temp is where you're comfortable. That way when you have these warm days we've been having, your cooling will come on. If it gets hotter in the house than your set point or if it's a cool night, if it's a cold evening, the heat will come on drops below your set point on that heating temperature with these, with these temperature swings, I mean that, that's the best you can do. Just have your thermostat stand on auto, set your cooling set points, have your heating set points. You know, don't worry about it because otherwise you'll be going back and forth to the thermostat and change the temperature from heating to cooling or from cooling to heating depending on the time of day. So again, set your thermostat to auto. One reminder if you have not had your unit serviced for the winter time, the Happy Heat Restoration site and offers bonus all that goes away at the end of the year. So 1231 it will go away after that so make sure you go to simmons1hour.com scroll down, you'll see the red box Happy Heat Restoration. Go ahead and click that. Book it if you have not already. Again the offers the bonuses on that page. All that will go away on December 31st. But enjoy these temperatures. It is warm for this time of year, but the cold weather is coming back. It's coming back first of the year, so make sure you're ready for that. But in the meantime, keep your thermostat on auto. That way you will not have to keep going back and forth and playing with the temperatures.
