A photo that is making its rounds on social media details a simple checklist when it comes to turning the heater on. With cooler temperatures giving us a break from the heat we endured all summer long, it will soon be time to warm up for fall/winter.

The photo seems to have originated from a local Facebook user by the name of Tabitha Michelle. After being shared over 116,000 times with over 16,000 comments, it's safe to say these thermostat rules have gone viral.
