Absolutely do this. My house got to 36° a few years ago when my furnace suddenly broke, which led to a frozen pipe and an unexpected bathroom renovation.

Are your floors such different temps because of venting? If so and that’s purposeful for heat savings, it may be worth letting warm air flow on the first floor for the next few days.

House is very poorly insulated. Once it gets into the teens tomorrow I probably won’t have this issue. I had the boiler serviced before thanksgiving but it’s repeatedly short cycling.
