In Alabama, we often see temperatures rise to 105 or 110 outside. Very often, to save on our electricity bill when we are at work, we turn the thermostat up. Perhaps even forgetting about the maid or housekeeper that might be at our house while we are away. Just as it is difficult to work in the heat outside, it is difficult to work in the heat inside, as well. Please remember your house cleaner is doing 3 to 6 hours of constant exercise. A comfortable temperature to do house cleaning is between 68 to 70 degrees.
