Mine is certainly on although it's not running much (north NJ).  I keep it set at 65 and for now it is comfortable.

We're in the Appalachian mountains and have had some mornings at 34 degrees.  Our furnace is on.  I'm very cold natured and Shadow, our American Bulldog is on the floor vent!

I have mine turned on all the time. The thermostat was set to 68, but then I was shivering a bit, so I upped it to 72, and I'm much happier. We've finally dipped into the thirties here nights and should have our first hard frost soon. It's a bit late this year, but that's okay. On sunny days the heater doesn't run at all but we've had lots of clouds and dampness and it's been doing its job.

Mine has been on and off here for the past two weeks or so. The weather is just crazy. Hot one day and then freezing at night. One neighbor had the AC going the other day! I had my furnace come on a few days later.

Mine has been on for about a week, but only on low 60's. We had a lot of rain, and the cold , damp got uncomfortable.

Mine is set to 74 and I run my Dyson heater off and on. I live in MI and one whole wall of my apartment is made of windows. There has been no sun and it makes a huge difference in the temp in here.
