We have a geothermal heat pump and it doesn't pay to adjust the temperature daily in the winter since the unit kicks the electric heating coils on to quickly warm the house. Set it and leave it for the winter. In the summer we run it if it is really hot or humid and it is cheaper than the whole house attic fan, but the breeze with open windows is nice to sleep to. We are usually around 70 in the winter as it doesn't save us much money to go to 68 since our entire heating/cooling is less than $1000 per year here in Wisconsin.
