Do you prefer having the windows open or keeping them shut? My brother HATES open windows, he's always going on about 'it's not THAT hot in here', well I like the breeze, I like the fresh air, and I am kind of bad about it, I will have my window open even if it's down to 35 degrees. I don't like the stifling feel of all the windows shut, and likewise when we drive somewhere, he hates when I put the windows down in the car. How about everyone else?

I'm with your brother. Close the damn window. If it ain't hot, close it.

Only when it's hot, and even then there has to be a screen. If it's under 60 degrees, then the windows stay closed.

yea, i only open when its hot.

Only during the summer. I can't understand why anybody want to open a window when it ain't hot out....

Well for one thing you get to hear a lot more than you do with the windows closed.

In the summer, I put in the screens and will keep some of them open at all times (when I'm home.) But no, if it's thirty-five degrees out, there's no way the windows are going to be opened. It needs to be at least seventy out.

What's this about putting IN the screens? I thought once in, they stayed in, at least they certainly do around here, we've never taken screens out unless we had to replace them because of hail damage.

In my storm doors back and front I have to change to the screens in the summer and the glass in the winter. No biggie it takes a few minutes to change them.

I would rather have the windows open on a warm breezy day. Sometimes in Winter I will open the windows up and let the cold air in just to refresh the house. I usually do this for about an hour then shut them.

If the heat is on, the windows are closed.
