Whether you’re enjoying warm summer days or snuggling under a blanket in winter, the right room temperature is key to your comfort and health. In the summer, some people feel cold with the air conditioning set to 18°C and wrap themselves in duvets, while in the winter, the heating can reach… tropical levels! Let’s see how you can enjoy a more balanced temperature and a healthier environment.
1. Summer: Leave the Duvet Behind
During the summer months, the air conditioning doesn’t need to be set to 18°C for you to feel comfortable. A temperature around 26°C will keep your room cool without “freezing” your body. Avoid heavy duvets and opt for light sheets. The temperature difference between the outside and inside should ideally not exceed 8-10 degrees, allowing your body to adjust naturally and avoid sudden changes that can affect your health.
2. Winter: Warmth in Moderation
In the winter, a temperature around 21°C is perfect for keeping your space warm without going overboard. Instead of cranking up the heat, cover yourself with a warm blanket or wear extra layers. Excessive heat can make you feel uncomfortable and dry out the air, which isn’t good for your health.
3. Take Care of Yourself and the Planet
By setting the right temperature, you’re not only providing your body with the best conditions for relaxation and sleep, but also helping reduce your ecological footprint.
By using energy more thoughtfully, you’re supporting the environment and creating a healthier space for yourself.
