We kept our
day temperature at 72, and lowered it to 66 at night when the outside
temperature was well below freezing. Even at 66, our furnace still ran at increased intervals
all night. In the morning, it would take half an hour or
more of constant running to bring the temperature back to 72. The countertops
were cold, the walls and all appliances were cold, and the whole house had to heat
up to 72.
I am not
convinced that dropping the temperature at night actually saves heating fuel.
