Setting aircon to 21 is exceptionally wasteful.
only if you're too warm. if you are comfotable, nup it's fine. I have mt house set to 20.5C which is perfect, if it starts to read 19C it's noticeably heading towards cold.
Not to mention the numpties who go into a meeting room that's "too cold" and adjust the thermostat to sun-surface levels in the belief that it will make the room heat up quicker. Umm. No. It will heat up at the same speed, and it just means that later on people using the room will encounter a fiery furnace. (Which will probably prompt them to set the thermostat to absolute zero, and thus the circle of stupidity is complete.)
My wife is incredibly intelligent. She has three degrees, speaks three languages and is a well regarded doctor.
She still does not understand how to use a thermastat.
