Temperature setting for thermostats?

We live in Nova Scotia, and go south in the winter. We have electric baseboard heat. Can you tell us what a good temperature would be to leave our thermostats on when our home is unoccupied? Keep in mind we do not shut off or drain our water. Freezing is monitored by a company electronically along with the fire/theft perils.

You will likely be safe with setting your temperatures at 55 degrees C.
I have a place in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. The building management requests that we leave the thermostat set to 55F. (12C)
thankyou
We leave ours at 45

How lucky are you! Nova Scotia is gorgeous, but I agree the winters too cold. Hope you go someplace sunny and warm!
We do, and yes Nova Scotia is beautiful in the summer and early fall
Hello. I would keep it at 55 degrees. That is what my mom did for her home in AR.
