Maintain floor temp

Does it matter what you set your garage temp to? Do you burn more wood to keep it at 65 verses 55?

Yes would will burn more wood at a higher temp. But what temp to set it that is a matter personal comfort. I keep my temps on the almost hot side. As long as your stove can handle it and you can afford it I say the hotter the better but that is just me.
