@noiob @monorail 20C is the minimum legal temperature for a rental here

@onfy @monorail I wouldn't want it to be much warmer but I run hot and like wearing warm clothes indoors

@noiob @monorail Well, specifically the occupant, if they can control the temperature, must be able to warm their house to at least 20. you're allowed less, but if you're in an apartment without a thermostat it'll usually be set to 20-25C.

I like my temps a little seasonal but I'm not the only one living here

@onfy @monorail I mean yeah obviously, we have similar laws (20 in rooms, 21 in bathrooms, 18 at night)

@noiob @monorail I think it's just 20 period for us

the intention probably is the same, they want to stop bad landlords who don't want to fix a broken heater from freezing their tenants

@noiob @monorail though one disadvantage to having a cold house is that being naked is less practical, you also have less reason to eat cold food but more reason to eat hot food
