I've never lived in a really cold place. I just wondered if when it's freezing outside and there's no heat that maybe people wear socks.
My heat it's off. It's sub freezing. I don't have socks on.
So no socks, thanks for the explanation. But what do you wear when walking around the house in the winter? Some type of slippers? I would think it's too cold to walk around barefoot.
Just socks. Heat is on during the day. Depending on when between 62 and 66 degrees.
If it is freezing out, why would there not be heat inside?
I was thinking of last winter when that freeze hit the US late January - early February. A lot of people didn't have power so no heat. I also think that some people don't use heat to save money. I remember reading someone that said they couldn't turn on the heat until ice formed on the inside of the windows.
Ah, so a one off event. Places that are regularly cold have gas lines buried that deliver gas to each home. A lot of the power lines are buried too (unless it is an old ass house) so the houses will be warm, and socks will not be worn to bed.
