Being close to the equator helps. My sister-in-law is Singaporean, and we asked her what she thought of our Minnesota weather. While she loves our autumns for the color change in foliage, she's okay with winters. They're just long, she says.
I'm from Canada, after this I will never complain about how cold Canada is anymore. When it's cold here I will never forget you guys. God bless you all, stay warm and happy.
in canada politicians are not billionaires, they mostly become politicians to make a difference in their area, in russia people become politicians to steal money and be protected from procecution. thats why our Canadian north people dont have to deal with shit like rassians do. problem is - rassians like being a slave of their master. when they lose heat to their aparment they kneel and ask putin for help instead of going after those who are stealing from them, who were assigned by putin personally! imagine if trudeau assigned premieres of provinces, thats what dictatorship is, and that is what putin did - he chooses premieres and all goverment is hand picked by him. But people of rassia ask for help on their knees instead of demanding it from goverment
You shouldnt forget about humidity and wind too. Have heard stories, that these people, who lives in these -50c travel to warmer places by sea, like Baltic sea, they were freezing already in -5c.
We live in Wisconsin and have a gas furnace in our basement that heats our small house. We also have a gas fireplace in the living room for the heat as well as ambiance. Your video was very enjoyable and informative. It's about 7 degrees F here now, and I was complaining about taking out the dog. I will think of you next time I get upset with cold temperatures here! Stay warm! 🙂
I am grateful to UA-cam creators that tell us the story about what their life is like in the area of the world where they live. I would rather watch such videos than watch TV shows.
@@saltycat662 If you take a flight there during the cold months, you might not be able to come back because the flights from that country going out might have a 3 month delay because of the high cold. So this place might not be good for a vacation.
I think many people in the comments use the term central heating differently than in the video. When she says "central heating", she is talking about district heating, where the heat for an entire area is generated in a heating centre and carried to the individual buildings over long pipes. Some people here write "I have central heating" but what they mean by that is that they have a single boiler or furnace for their entire house/apartment (as opposed to having separate gas/electric heaters in each room) - which is what she called individual heating in the video. It's a big difference because in the latter case, you can set the temp for yourself, turn off the heating when you're away, etc...
In finland we call it roughly translated "remote heat" when you are conneted to a bigger plant. The central heating means mostly water circulated radiatros instead of having several fireplaces. No matter if you are conneted to network or have your own boiler.
Here in Austria it's the opposite. We try to get rid of gas heating. All new apartment buildings have district heating and are well insulated. My building is 2 years old. Now we have 0°C outside. Inside 21°C with heating turned off. 25°C would be too hot for me
Jesus Christ has built a wonderful place for you to live- receive Him today and avoid the judgment that is coming. He loves you and wants you to be saved! Don’t believe the lies they will tell. 🙏 Aliens are demons.
Russia is a genocidal shithole and laughing stock on the world stage, but this video is pretty far removed from that and still interesting, so why wouldn't comments be nice?
I am on the Gulf Coast in the USA and worked my outdoor job today with just a shirt and pants😆 Your way of living proves how adaptive we humans can be to our given environment; inspiring!
Hi there from Fairbanks, Alaska. 🙂 i’m making myself feel better by watching a video about a city that’s colder than my city… 🥶😄😄😄 Great video, and your English is very good. 💙
I went to Barrow, Alaska in the early 90s for a college trip/class. I'll never forget how cold it was there, let me tell you. But it still doesn't compare to the temperatures Yakutsk gets. When we landed in Barrow (or near Barrow, I don't remember if the airport was in the town or not since it's been so long lol) it was -26F and on the 3rd night there it got down to -39F with a wind chill down to around -55F I want to say. Super cold, very dangerously cold obviously. But man, nothing compares to -70F or lower for months on end in Yakutsk etc.
Black Hills of South Dakota, natural gas boiler and base board radiators, for main heating in a 1200 sq ft house with a full basement. Wood stove as a backup heat source.
I love the way you narrate throughout the video. You voice is so relaxing! So much interesting information as well. Can't help feeling grateful for my country Greece after watching your videos but also respectful for all of you who manage to live your life happily even in these extreme conditions.
uhm Greece is extreme lol, but in the other way around. And too warm weather is much worse than too cold weather. In the former you lie incapacitated down in a basement all day and can't sleep during the night and in the later you put on a jacket when you step outside.
3:38 I'm sweating just at the thought of keeping my apartment at +25. When my apartment reaches +22 I start sweating even when I'm just sitting still and doing nothing.
Russians have different habits, coz first - heat is cheap. Like it is 50-70$ to heat big house to +30, second it is nicer to have warm house in cold contru and walk in panties at home))
When it is -64 outside, it shouldn`t be too difficult to coll it down a little. (Open a window for a minute) Or maybe they like to be extra warm indoors...
What i really appreciate how people from all over the world, different cities and countries share their views, just like we are in a small global village. I m from India. I bless all of u guys. We never experience these kind of temperatures in our country but i love to watch your videos and comment section is awesome.
You need to visit more of your own country, i lived and worked in India for like 6 years, and I've experienced NEGATIVE 20c more times than i can count, and as i recall DRASS is one of the coldest places on the planet in the winter with temps routinely dropping below 35c.
Kanwalpreet, India is much larger and varied than the place you stay in. Please go around, explore your own country. There's a lot to know and learn. You may even end up surprised.
Posting from Orange Country, New York. We get cold weather and the occasional blizzard but nothing compared to what you guys go through. You have adapted so well to your environment-your apartment looks really comfortable, any vacancies in your building?'-but I also hope that the older buildings somehow will be able to improve upon their heating. Thank you so much on a really informative video!😊
The 120m3 gas also amazing for me :DD i used 240m3 gas last month in a brand new 100m2 house with 15cm eps on the walls, also with floor heating (35C water in the floor) avg 23C in the rooms while out its like avg -2C at night and +3 day.
@@bakdominik8659 In apartment buildings you benefit from your neighbours. The heat is transferred through the walls and floors inside the building. In average winter climates some apartments can go almost without heating if the neighbours are heating excessively. It is not comparable to a house.
Fascinating. Here in the UK, we pay one of the highest rates for gas. An average sized 3 bedroom house can typically pay around £1500 a year for gas which is about $2000. And it's not even that cold. We occasionally get temperatures as low as -5'c at night but they average over zero in the day. And that's only for about 3 months or so. The rest of the time, temperatures can average 10 to 20'c and often warmer in the summer. It is a struggle for us and many families suffer with the cost of living here. You are very lucky.
Quit your political bs, nobody cares. Trump sure didnt lower my propane bills and i doubt he will this go around. My bill is regularly $900 a fill up 2x a year. I live in the midwest which isnt even the coldest part of the country.@@raydn23
Browsing from the Pacific Northwest, the Seattle/Tacoma WA area. I'm with a comment I saw in this thread in I will never ever complain about the weather here after seeing this. Nothing but mad respect for you and your family Miss and those that weathered the elements to even build the apartment buildings.
Vancouver, WA here. We have it very mild in this part of the world. Lived in Michigan a few years. The brutal summers and winters were enough to last a lifetime. Can't imagine living in Siberia.
@@በተሰበ I can't imagine living there either and I served in the Military and was deployed to Bosnia one yr. I thought Bosnia was cold, but after looking at this video, Bosnia doesn't even come close to Siberia.
I live in South Florida and it dropped to down to 50 F and we are all complaining, however after watching your video, wow we have no reason to complain. Wish you all the best!
Sault Ste Marie, Ontario, Canada. We have cold temps in winter, -20, -25 Celcius. Most home rely on Natural Gas forced air heating system, electric baseboard or heat pump air exhanger systems. Great video , the extremes of your community have peaked my interest for years, Thanks and keep them comming.
Interesting , I'm in Ohio, we are usually colder than Alaska, usually always get a length of time with -20, and when it gets to 18° ,,, it's T-shirt weather 😂
I've been watching Yakutsk videos during December and January for over 15 years. It's a comforting way to drift off to sleep in my cozy winters, all the while feeling a bit of empathy for those brave souls enduring far harsher conditions.
It's interesting because I used to live in Winnipeg Canada where it can get to below minus 30. The coldest I experienced was minus 42 and yet I would take a Winnipeg winter over a Scottish winter. The damp makes it feel much worse. People can also afford to keep their homes warm there not like here. She keeps her apartment at 25 degrees which is crazy hot from a UK perspective. I know people who can't afford to heat their house to any more than 16 degrees which is miserable.
Thank you Maria for your story. I am in Greece and we have relatively good weather as now it is winter and we have 10 degrees Celsius outside. In our house we personally have private heating using a central heater that is situated in the underground area and we have warm water running under the floor of our house and going to the sun collector also for the warm water we use for our baths.
Dear Maria, I just recently discovered and subscribed to your channel. I especially liked the video where you donated to the three people who needed help after the fires. You are a sweet, kind, caring, compassionate angel. Beautiful young lady on the outside as well as inside. This world needs many more of you. Thank you for what you do and taking the time to produce the videos so we can learn about wonderful cultures and people like yourself we would otherwise never have the opportunity to meet. Sincerely, Larry
I'm writing from Colombia (South America). In my city the temperature varies between 13C and 20C throughout the year. We don't use heating or air conditioning in the house. We just open and close the windows to adjust the temperature.
@@supercal333we heat our house to 18 in the winter. Any more and we all start to cook. And its too hot for nightime. We have it go down eo 14 from sbiut 8pm until 6am. But in my car i jave that set st 14 all year round, and have my heated seat in in the winter.
@supercal333 I'm not OP but I'm also from Colombia, likely the same city. No, we don't have any kind of heating, we don't even insulate our homes. Though we do build almost exclusively with bricks (not wood) and detached homes are not common (outside rural areas). So our houses are somewhat decent at retaining heat. The temperatures inside the house almost never reaches 13, just the outside one. Actually, the outside temperature can reach close to 4 °C at like 3 or 4 am on cold days.
We live in North Texas, which has a very mild climate, and we rely mainly on our wood stove to heat our home. Thanks for the informative video. Stay warm.
25 C is really hot. Here in the Netherlands, I keep the indoor temperature at ca 20 C Outside is about 0 C now 55 m2 apartment in 50 apartment building. We use a central gas boiler.
as a russian, 20C is somewhat chilly for an indoor temperature. i used to live abroad in a country where heating was super expensive so i had to keep the room temp at around 17-20C like the locals did and it was torture. my fellow russian friends there felt the same lol. maybe we just tend to prefer it that way. back in my home country now and my room temp is at 25C atm, super comfy
@@cherie8908 In Russia, energy costs nothing. In Europe, if you keep your home at 25°C all winter, you're going to get a costly surprise on your energy bills
It's really time to abandon the metric system for heat. In Fahrenheit the air temperature falls between 0-100 degrees 98% of the time. Zero very cold out, 100 very hot out. 70 is pleasant.
@@cherie8908 Maybe if you work in a science lab the boiling temperature matters but its totally meaningless in day to day life. It would be like having a 0 to 100 speedometer on your car where 100 is the speed of sound.
Interesting video. I'm subscribing. It's nice that this lovely young lady cares about and wishes well on her nearby flat dwellers, whose heating is not as good as hers. Greetings from Britain !
I live in Chicago, in a building that is about 100 years old, right next to Lake Michigan. We have radiator heat that uses water, sort of similar to yours. It's very inconsistent, with some units in the building getting way too warm while others don't heat enough. Back in Jan 2019, we experienced extreme low temperatures (the good ol' polar vortex lol) at around -50 with the wind chill. It was incredibly intense and difficult to be outside for more than a few minutes at a time. It's amazing how people can adapt to these extreme climates! Thank you for sharing!!
Put thermostatic valves on each radiator. The problem may be that water has a preferential radiator and little goes to the others. With thermostatic valves the circuit gets balanced. PS wind chill corrected temperature does not apply to buildings.
Chicago has wonderful brown brick apartment buildings. And the thang of it is, Chicagoans know how to live in apartments (for the most part). Eighty percent of its residents do so.
I live in the US and my house is heated with central heat but we also have a gas fireplace we use also when it’s colder (colder for us anyway). My husband and I Love your channel and want to thank you for sharing your beautiful people and culture with the world! ❤️
This was a neat ‘insider scoop’ on how people keep warm where it’s seemingly never warm outside lol, thank you for the tour! It’s nice to know you’re nice and cozy! ☺️
Best regards from Switzerland. We live in a house that is about 300 years old. The whole house used to be heated by fireplaces in the living rooms. The room behind the fireplace is always a bedroom. There was also a wood-burning cooker in the kitchen, which heated the dining room at the back. Around 120 years ago, a coal store was set up in the cellar and there was a central heating system for all six flats in the house. 60 years ago, an oil tank was installed in the coal cellar and the coal heating was replaced by an oil burner, which now heats the water that warms the radiators in the rooms. We also reach -17 degrees here from time to time. This morning it was -8 degrees in the sunshine. The national record of 41.8 degrees below zero was set in La Brévine - we call it ‘The Siberia of Switzerland’. Good luck in the new year.
@@donngg Yes, of course. We have lots of Christmas markets in the run-up to Christmas. There are useful and less useful, tasty and less tasty things to buy. And lots of warm and hot drinks (with and without alcohol) to warm you up. As mentioned, we have mountains and you can take the ski lift up there and ski back down again. Some roads are also closed in winter and you can legally go down on a sledge. When I look after my work colleague's dog because he's on a skiing holiday in the mountains with his family, I have to take the dog for a walk twice a day, no matter how cold it is. Ice hockey is also very popular here and in rural areas there are still ice rinks without an arena above them. Sometimes there is also a small kiosk selling mulled wine and punch - I love something like that on a cold winter's day. There are also many regional events in the fresh air at the turn of the year. ‘Silvester Kläuse’ in the canton of Appenzell. Bonfires and parades. Then comes the carnival in February, which usually takes place outdoors, whatever the weather. Today it was -10 degrees and my father, my brother and I went into our forest, built a fire and roasted sausages in the embers. We also left hay, apples and carrots for the wild animals. It was a lovely day.

Hello from Northern Ontario, Canada. My home is heated by natural gas. My shop is a mix of natural gas and electric heaters. While most homes are electric, gas or a mix of both, some houses still rely on wood stoves. It has been quite nippy around here for the last week or so, but nowhere near as nippy as where you are. Keep warm and stay safe! Summer is coming... or so I've been told.
in Yakutsk, Siberia you have to keep your car running 24/7 or have a heated garage because if it is left switched off it freezes solid and has to be towed to a heated garage to thaw out.
@@bradman1961 the entire car freezes solid you can't open the doors or hood of car, all moving parts get seized up, so they keep the cars running with the heaters on all day.
@@dan58234 That would consume too much energy. Trucks in Quebec and probably all over north america have resistive heaters. You plug them in to keep the engine block warm.
@@louistournas120 Russia has dirt cheap fuel for residents. it's like the person says at 4:30 they keep their house heated to 25*C night and day and it cost $8 a month with the right heating set up.
First of all, your English is excellent! I live in Austin, Texas, USA and it’s very moderate here. I look at videos like yours in amazement at how you guys cope in such frigid temperatures. The human spirit never ceases to amaze me. Keep these kids of videos coming and stay warm.
I lived in Texas for over a decade and most people wouldn't considerate it a moderate climate, lol. The average high temperature in August is almost 98 decrees F. I would describe summers in Texas as pretty close to hell.
@@purselmer5931 The temps here are pretty strange, last night it got to an overnight low of 8 and it was cool and windy and on boxing day it will be 40. this is Celsius by the way.
@@MrBigBoy4Lifetemperate actually means that the difference between the highest and lowest annual temperatures is small. If you watch a video from Siberia in August you’ll probably be envious. 😊
Holly - o - Fark that is f. Cold. What a great time to be alive that we can see you and learn what your day to day life is like in such a hostile environment. What an amazing place and thank you for posting this in English. Seasons greetings from the UK.
My recommendation, get a ventilator to blow air from radiator toward center of the room. It will not look nice and it will be noisy, but it warms the room much faster and efficiently.
Watching from Ireland. We have used multiple sources since living here. One apartment in Dublin was heated using gas, very similar to what you have. We moved to another house, also in Dublin and we were using a heat pump (basically a reverse fridge). Since then, we have now moved to the country where we use Kerosene to fire a boiler for the house radiators and then we also have 2 fireplaces that we can use either coal, peat or firewood. The one fireplace is connected to the same pipes as the kerosene fired boiler so that helps with warming as well. We will be moving to a heat pump / solar based solution in the next few years where the sun can either power the heat pump or generate a credit with of energy supplier by contributing energy back to the grid. Houses here are valued here according to heat efficiency. Newer house are around and A rating but older houses can go all the way to F. If you can find an older house with a B rating, you are considered very lucky. Anything over C is relatively poorly insulated. Oh and for temperature, we very rarely go below 0°c unless you live closer the west coast which get blasted by Atlantic winds
My family from Ireland lived in front of a peatlands, we'd go out and dig some up to throw on a fire when it was dry. Now any time I smell something close to burning peat I'm teleported back to Ireland.
I’m in southern New Mexico, USA. It’s cold in the winter averaging about 40-50F and hot in the summer averaging 85-95F. I have a heat pump for my house that covers both heating and air conditioning. I have a 6kw solar station that pays for almost all my electrical costs year round. Loved your video and your voice. Thanks for making it.
Same with Arizona. We used to have rain occasionally but we’ve been in a drought for nearly 5 years. Honestly would rather live in the snow like in this video than this boring, overpriced hellhole.
Some people were living in the region since before industrialization, there were local tribes herding north deer, many farmers still do that. Others came to make money, as there is well paid seasonal work there, and higher salaries in general due to federal programs.
In our apartment we use electric heaters, its a new structure and the units are fitted with heating and cold air for summer! Thank you so much for showing your beautiful country!! PS I'm from New York City!
I live in the other extreme, in the desert heat. We have air heaters out here which pumps heated air into the house. It's the air conditioning we're really focused on out here. The heat during the summer can approach 55°C (131°F). Thank you for showing how your homes are heated in one of the coldest cities on the Earth. I hope that new and more affordable and efficient methods for heating homes is created that all modern and older buildings can adopt without too much trouble. Stay safe and stay warm! :)
Hi, from the UK, I have a two bedroom semi detached house, we have a gas fired boiler with a radiator in each room plus several in the hall ways. Winters aren’t that harsh anymore here, Love your video. Always found your region fascinating due to the climate.
I am in Brisbane Australia in a place called Redcliffe. It averages 14c to 26c in winter and 30 to 40c on average in summer. We have a 2-way air-conditioning system that blows up to 30c hot air in winter and as low as 16c in summer. The heat comes with humidity, can make it hard to breathe if you're not use to it. The units are housed in the main room where you watch television. The other one is usually in the parent's room. Everyone else uses electric fans in summer and warmer clothes and blankets in winter. My town is called Redcliffe because we have red clay cliffs facing the sea. Great video again. Very interesting.
30c to 40c is also terrible for me as a Dutch person. I don't like temperatures above 27c anymore. When it gets that hot I don't feel like doing anything anymore and I try to stay inside as much as possible.
@@hansd3295 I am from New Zealand so I think we are in the same boat. Not as cold as your Home land but it is similar to England, Ireland Scottish weather I have been told.
@@АрхНикоБа Yes very true. In New Zealand where I was born is a cold country with nothing dangerous. You can go on treks into the wild and not worry about being attacked. You can lay a blanket down and have a picnic. We did that here in Australia and got swarmed by big fire ants. We learnt our lesson.
I live on the Central Coast of California. Although the climate is very mild here we do have colder nights in the winter. We use a wood burning pellet stove to heat our home in the winter. Our last home was heated with natural gas.

Its not just the heater that makes your place efficient..it is how the building is built with that kind of thickness of wall..WOW !!! Thank you for the video.God bless and Merry Christmas : )
@@wiezyczkowata WOW! For my American compatriots, that's almost 2 feet thick! And is it not usually made of brick? I would imagine that as a side benefit of such a thick wall, the apartment must be soundproof.
I asked you about indoor temperature and you made whole video about it. Thank you. Here where I'm living, indoor temperature is 20-25C. Im lucky because in my apartment building we have central heating substation from which whole block of buildings are heated. Central heating plant (or as you said boiler house) heats up steam and under higher pressure push it through pipelines. Then in substations, overheated steam heats the water which is distributed through pipes all around block. We don't have natural gas to cover whole country. There was plans to build gas infrastructure, but due recent events that's not going to happens. Central heating is quite expensive. For my apartment of 76m² monthly cost is $100 over all 12 months.
I’m from the city of Chicago in Illinois, usa we have central heater in my house but some older homes have radiator still, we had -10 Fahrenheit weather yesterday and I was freezing today was about 20 Fahrenheit and it snowed you guys are very brave to live in the coldest city in the world
I’m so grateful this video popped up. I’m in the north east USA and I have forced hot water. There is a furnace which heats water that is piped through the house and across radiators. It is currently 17 degrees F outside and the coldest it gets is about -5 f. I love that you are in the coldest place on earth and you can smile. You must be an incredible person!
Its really interesting to learn that in the USA its called forced hot water- we consider this normal central heating in the UK! We have few options for heating!
@@louistournas120 It's literally as the name sounds - it's hot water forced through the pipes. She calls it simply "central heating" in the video. Same concept.
I live in central Maine and laugh at your -5 F. It often hits -20f in a cold snap. I have a heating oil furnace that powers a forced hot air system (meaning a fan pushes the air around the house). I burn about 200 gallons of heating oil a month in the winter costing in excess of 600 dollars.
It's amazing how many people live her in harmony. It just shows it's the people not the environment that makes us live happily! Take care and Merry Christmas!
Wow, 25C indoors is toasty! Here in the UK, I have my boiler set to 18C. Each room has its door closed which can raise the temperature to a warm ~22C. Gas costs £1 (~$1.25) for every cubic metre.
I live in a four-storey block of flats built in 1891, the outside walls are 60cm thick and the windows have triple glazing. As I live on the first floor and both the flats above and below me are heated, I really don't need to heat much with gas. Of course, due to the change in climate, we rarely have temperatures below minus 5 degrees even at night. So the heating costs are low and less than 40 euros a month. Nice that you're making videos from your home again.
I'm in the US. We generally have 1 heating system for the entire house/apartment unit/condo unit and its usually gas or electric. Some places still do steam heat, but that's still one steam system per house or apartment building or condo building. I've never heard of anything in the US where there were multiple residential buildings sharing the same steam heat boiler system. Its always interesting learning about life that cold. makes me so glad I live in an area that rarely gets below -17.17C/0F and hardly any snow.
There's one in my midwestern city. A plant next to the river pipes steam to allot of buildings downtown. Its not uncommon to see steam rising from manhole covers. I believe the pipes are old.
Those systems were once commonly used in the northern U.S. in cities on the East Coast, near the Great Lakes and in the Midwest and plain states. A lot of that technology was replaced when steam radiators gave way to forced air HVAC systems.
@@mickeyflynn5427 Yes, steam heat in houses is common in places like New York City (where water is plentiful), but that is not centralized. Each house or apartment building has its own boiler system. However, Consolidated Edison company does do centralized steam/hot water for downtown New York City for the skyscrapers as its more cost effective supposedly to have steam radiators to heat above a certain floor regardless of how cold it is.
in Alaska, my home was heated with a furnace and glycol system. it wasn't the best way to heat our home, but it worked to keep the house a cozy +40F. To make it warmer, we use a wood stove to heat the house that would easily make it +80F in -30F (-50F with wind-chill) Stay warm!
In the Netherlands every house has a central heating boiler. Its been that way since I can remember. New houses use heat pumps. It’s a very modern way of generating energy and heat from electricity. People use different methods according to their wishes. I recently renovated my house and we use underfloor heatings and airconditioner units to generate heat in the house. We have a radiator in the bathroom and a portable radiator in the attic. We don’t have a lot of affordable gas here, so most people feel the necessity to switch to electric heat pumps.
Not every house, about 80% of the houses. We do the opposite of Yakutia, we're switching to district heating because gas is more expensive. Electric heat pumps are only used in the rich part of our society.
Dat klopt maar in Nederland bevriest het gas dan ook niet in de pijpen, ben wel benieuwd hoe dit in Yakutia is opgelost, is de samenstelling van het gas anders? of worden de gas toevoeren boven nul gehouden. anders zou je bij 20 bar al een vloeibaar gas moeten verpompen?
I'm so glad for you that you have inexpensive heating costs - you need it! Like many people around the world, I can't afford to heat my flat (apartment) very often. Last winter it was three degrees centigrade in my living room (I am in the UK) 🥶 Grateful for a roof over my head but would love it to be a tad warmer 🙄
I’m from the states and I always find it fascinating on what other places in the world are like. Thank you for sharing what it’s like in your part of the world. With videos like this it always make our world feel smaller and our apartments are heated by gas because it’s easier to have gas in the mountains then pumping up hot water up here.
@ of course! I loved your videos and I’m glad to see you are back sending lots of hugs from the states and hope you have a merry Christmas and a happy new year
Hello from Denmark here 🤗 Even if we don’t get the same temperatures here as you guys does, our houses are very well insulated. Obviously we have double glazed windows but our walls and roofs are insulated too. Where I live the apartment are insulated with 300 mm rockwool and there’s no leaks around the windows either. All in all it’s very cheap to heat up. The entire building where my apartment is located is heated by public central heating.
@ Not really. There’s heat emissions that demands that a given window are not to let out more heat than it let ín during the heating time of the year. It’s the so called A-class regulative of 2021. But it doesn’t demand that it must be 3-layers of glass. 2-layers are enough, if they can live up to the rules. So in most cases up to 2021 it was mostly 2-layers glazing and only after 2021 that 3-layers became the norm. But still, if they can live up to the demands, 2-layers are still valid. My apartment got 2-layers and it’s from 2016, so it’s a long shot to claim it as a relic from the old days. Another benefit with 2-layers glazing is that it let more light in!
This time last year I considered crypto without much knowledge and decided to have a consultation with a fiduciary, and it was incredibly insightful.

Quebec City, Canada here. We often get -25C and -30C during winter here. Most of us heat our houses or apartments with electric baseboards in each room. This is pretty efficient for our climate. Some use natural gas or fuel oil. Some use auxiliary heating sources like wood fireplaces, but many cities admins are beginning to forbid this energy source. Because they are pricks of course.
@@apple1667 The main reason for Justin as president is probably that the state does not get any profit from burning wood. As most people buy firewood without a receipt or chop it themselves. I live in northern Sweden near the Arctic Circle in a medium-sized city and here you don't notice any smog, although most people light fires when it's the coldest.
If your government is trying to stop you from burning wood, ignore it for as long as possible. If that doesn't work, establish a constitutional republic. Look down for details.
Electric baseboard heat is actually like the most inefficient and ineffective and costly heating methods for a residential dwelling. As a homeowner/builder in a cold climate theyd be my last choice iykyk. Proper insulation & ductwork design and placement and forced air systems provide the better heating (& cooling) efficiency. Gas or electric infrared fireplaces are great too.
Thanks for posting this video, it shows that russians are people too...and my home is gas heated, in winter, I have 15°C, because I heat sparsly...and I put on an extra sweater...
Nice to see you again. In New York, USA….we use a variety. In my 3 floor house they use an oil fueled furnace that heats a boiler. The hot water is pumped from the boiler throughout the house into radiators in the rooms and hallways which dissipate the heat. That slightly cooled water then cycles down to the boiler to be reheated and circulated back through the house.
I am watching from northern Wisconsin, USA. It is very cold here and winters are hard. My heat in my apartment is gas and quite expensive in the winter. I very much enjoy your videos from Yakutsk, the coldest city on earth! For sure you will be having a "white Christmas"!
I am from Thailand and right now we are at 20C and I start to feel a bit cold already, can’t imagine how -64c would feel like. Thanks for showing us your video.
Wow, 25 degrees inside! I have my heating set to 16 degrees, and with the right clothes on, it's a perfectly good temperature. Saves a lot of money too.
Good evening from Germany 🇩🇪 Congratulations for resisting such harsh cold 💪🏼 In my country, we actually have "warm" 0°C (32°F) outside. We generally have 4 types of heating our apartments or houses: - central remote heating - individual gas boilers - individual oil heatings or - traditional wood stoves (rare). In my small apartment, I use a gas boiler to keep it warm inside. Although Germany's winters are "hot" compared to Yakutian winters, I take cold showers in the morning to boost my immune system.
I live on Waiheke Island - an island off the main city of Auckland, in the north part of the North Island in New Zealand - a very temperate climate. We rarely get a "frost" in winter (below 0 deg C) and most winter days are about 15 deg C or above. We use a heat pump - sometimes called a mini split - for heating our main living areas and if we keep the bedroom doors open, it will heat those too. If it gets too chilly we'll use a small heater in the bedrooms during the day but at night, blankets are enough to stay warm while we sleep. I am fascinated with your climate and love your videos. Thank you and a have a lovely Christmas! It's summer here and we will go to the beach on Christmas day!
North Carolina in the US here and I think our weather is comparable. Our average low is about 1C in our coldest months, we used to have a full furnace but recently replaced it with a heat pump because it just doesn't get that cold. If it does dip into the negative temps, we have electric space heaters and dogs. 😂
when I moved to Canada I found I had no trouble with the cold at all- my problem was it was so dang hot indoors everywhere! Everywhere is so insulated and temps can be hotter than that. Then in the summer AC is rare.
Same here. I'd consider 20 quite warm, at least for the bedroom. But then again, I live in Germany, the weather forecast calls -7°C "severe frost", so it's hardly ever really cold outside.
Thank you for sharing this. Living in Holland: I use a gasboiler to heat the house. Mostly through floor heating. In winter the inside temperature will be around 17 to 18 degrees. We also have a fire place in the central living room.
There is no environmentally friendly green electricity.This is a myth!A lot of energy and environmentally harmful materials need to be spent on the production of a solar battery.But they are made in other countries and sold under the guise of clean energy. If the climate allows you to save energy, this does not mean that you can do it everywhere. Our climate in Nizhny Novgorod seems to be not too extreme, but the temperature drops in winter are very large. This week, the temperature outside jumps from -20 degrees to +2 during the week.Frosts will usually come in January and may well drop to -30 degrees and last for weeks.This is certainly not Yakutia, but very close to the European Union.
Watching from Singapore. The houses here are heated by being in Singapore

Being close to the equator helps. My sister-in-law is Singaporean, and we asked her what she thought of our Minnesota weather. While she loves our autumns for the color change in foliage, she's okay with winters. They're just long, she says.

Ahhh Canada....America's next state.
in canada politicians are not billionaires, they mostly become politicians to make a difference in their area, in russia people become politicians to steal money and be protected from procecution. thats why our Canadian north people dont have to deal with shit like rassians do. problem is - rassians like being a slave of their master. when they lose heat to their aparment they kneel and ask putin for help instead of going after those who are stealing from them, who were assigned by putin personally! imagine if trudeau assigned premieres of provinces, thats what dictatorship is, and that is what putin did - he chooses premieres and all goverment is hand picked by him. But people of rassia ask for help on their knees instead of demanding it from goverment
You shouldnt forget about humidity and wind too. Have heard stories, that these people, who lives in these -50c travel to warmer places by sea, like Baltic sea, they were freezing already in -5c.
We live in Wisconsin and have a gas furnace in our basement that heats our small house. We also have a gas fireplace in the living room for the heat as well as ambiance. Your video was very enjoyable and informative. It's about 7 degrees F here now, and I was complaining about taking out the dog. I will think of you next time I get upset with cold temperatures here! Stay warm! 🙂

@@saltycat662 If you take a flight there during the cold months, you might not be able to come back because the flights from that country going out might have a 3 month delay because of the high cold. So this place might not be good for a vacation.
I think many people in the comments use the term central heating differently than in the video. When she says "central heating", she is talking about district heating, where the heat for an entire area is generated in a heating centre and carried to the individual buildings over long pipes. Some people here write "I have central heating" but what they mean by that is that they have a single boiler or furnace for their entire house/apartment (as opposed to having separate gas/electric heaters in each room) - which is what she called individual heating in the video. It's a big difference because in the latter case, you can set the temp for yourself, turn off the heating when you're away, etc...
Thank you explaining
Thank you for making it clear
In finland we call it roughly translated "remote heat" when you are conneted to a bigger plant. The central heating means mostly water circulated radiatros instead of having several fireplaces. No matter if you are conneted to network or have your own boiler.
Yes, that’s an important distinction.
Here in Austria it's the opposite. We try to get rid of gas heating. All new apartment buildings have district heating and are well insulated. My building is 2 years old. Now we have 0°C outside. Inside 21°C with heating turned off. 25°C would be too hot for me

Yup, where i was born !! mind me asking how much the pipeline $$ payments are now ?
I went to Barrow, Alaska in the early 90s for a college trip/class. I'll never forget how cold it was there, let me tell you. But it still doesn't compare to the temperatures Yakutsk gets. When we landed in Barrow (or near Barrow, I don't remember if the airport was in the town or not since it's been so long lol) it was -26F and on the 3rd night there it got down to -39F with a wind chill down to around -55F I want to say.

Russians have different habits, coz first - heat is cheap. Like it is 50-70$ to heat big house to +30, second it is nicer to have warm house in cold contru and walk in panties at home))
I regularly have to convince my wife to keep the temperature in the house below 28 degrees, because she is from Shanghai, and I'm not.
Agreed, if 25 degrees is "comfortable", don't live in Siberia. I rarely set mine higher than 19 degrees in the UK.
When it is -64 outside, it shouldn`t be too difficult to coll it down a little. (Open a window for a minute) Or maybe they like to be extra warm indoors...
What i really appreciate how people from all over the world, different cities and countries share their views, just like we are in a small global village. I m from India. I bless all of u guys. We never experience these kind of temperatures in our country but i love to watch your videos and comment section is awesome.
You need to visit more of your own country, i lived and worked in India for like 6 years, and I've experienced NEGATIVE 20c more times than i can count, and as i recall DRASS is one of the coldest places on the planet in the winter with temps routinely dropping below 35c.
Kanwalpreet, India is much larger and varied than the place you stay in. Please go around, explore your own country. There's a lot to know and learn. You may even end up surprised.

Posting from Orange Country, New York. We get cold weather and the occasional blizzard but nothing compared to what you guys go through. You have adapted so well to your environment-your apartment looks really comfortable, any vacancies in your building?'-but I also hope that the older buildings somehow will be able to improve upon their heating. Thank you so much on a really informative video!😊
As engineer I can say that keeping house at 25degC with 41degC LWT at - 40degC outside is truly amazing.
The 120m3 gas also amazing for me :DD i used 240m3 gas last month in a brand new 100m2 house with 15cm eps on the walls, also with floor heating (35C water in the floor) avg 23C in the rooms while out its like avg -2C at night and +3 day.
I'm not an engineer, but as an HVAC tech I was thinking the exact same thing.
@@bakdominik8659 what was even more amazing: 120m3 for 8$. It would be 150$ here in Germany...
@@bakdominik8659 In apartment buildings you benefit from your neighbours. The heat is transferred through the walls and floors inside the building. In average winter climates some apartments can go almost without heating if the neighbours are heating excessively. It is not comparable to a house.
@@stephanbrenner3317 I agree, but that does suprises me as much as this is Russia.
Fascinating. Here in the UK, we pay one of the highest rates for gas. An average sized 3 bedroom house can typically pay around £1500 a year for gas which is about $2000. And it's not even that cold. We occasionally get temperatures as low as -5'c at night but they average over zero in the day. And that's only for about 3 months or so. The rest of the time, temperatures can average 10 to 20'c and often warmer in the summer. It is a struggle for us and many families suffer with the cost of living here. You are very lucky.
You get what you voted for in the UK.

Though we do build almost exclusively with bricks (not wood) and detached homes are not common (outside rural areas). So our houses are somewhat decent at retaining heat.
The temperatures inside the house almost never reaches 13, just the outside one. Actually, the outside temperature can reach close to 4 °C at like 3 or 4 am on cold days.

Back in Jan 2019, we experienced extreme low temperatures (the good ol' polar vortex lol) at around -50 with the wind chill. It was incredibly intense and difficult to be outside for more than a few minutes at a time. It's amazing how people can adapt to these extreme climates! Thank you for sharing!!
In the U.K. most houses he’s radiators. If it’s inconsistent you most likely have air in the system which can be bled
Put thermostatic valves on each radiator. The problem may be that water has a preferential radiator and little goes to the others. With thermostatic valves the circuit gets balanced.
PS wind chill corrected temperature does not apply to buildings.
You are bleeding your radiators right

Best regards from Switzerland.
We live in a house that is about 300 years old. The whole house used to be heated by fireplaces in the living rooms. The room behind the fireplace is always a bedroom. There was also a wood-burning cooker in the kitchen, which heated the dining room at the back.
Around 120 years ago, a coal store was set up in the cellar and there was a central heating system for all six flats in the house. 60 years ago, an oil tank was installed in the coal cellar and the coal heating was replaced by an oil burner, which now heats the water that warms the radiators in the rooms. We also reach -17 degrees here from time to time. This morning it was -8 degrees in the sunshine. The national record of 41.8 degrees below zero was set in La Brévine - we call it ‘The Siberia of Switzerland’.
Good luck in the new year.

We have lots of Christmas markets in the run-up to Christmas. There are useful and less useful, tasty and less tasty things to buy. And lots of warm and hot drinks (with and without alcohol) to warm you up. As mentioned, we have mountains and you can take the ski lift up there and ski back down again. Some roads are also closed in winter and you can legally go down on a sledge. When I look after my work colleague's dog because he's on a skiing holiday in the mountains with his family, I have to take the dog for a walk twice a day, no matter how cold it is. Ice hockey is also very popular here and in rural areas there are still ice rinks without an arena above them. Sometimes there is also a small kiosk selling mulled wine and punch - I love something like that on a cold winter's day. There are also many regional events in the fresh air at the turn of the year. ‘Silvester Kläuse’ in the canton of Appenzell.
Bonfires and parades. Then comes the carnival in February, which usually takes place outdoors, whatever the weather.

My recommendation, get a ventilator to blow air from radiator toward center of the room. It will not look nice and it will be noisy, but it warms the room much faster and efficiently.
Watching from Ireland. We have used multiple sources since living here. One apartment in Dublin was heated using gas, very similar to what you have. We moved to another house, also in Dublin and we were using a heat pump (basically a reverse fridge). Since then, we have now moved to the country where we use Kerosene to fire a boiler for the house radiators and then we also have 2 fireplaces that we can use either coal, peat or firewood. The one fireplace is connected to the same pipes as the kerosene fired boiler so that helps with warming as well.
We will be moving to a heat pump / solar based solution in the next few years where the sun can either power the heat pump or generate a credit with of energy supplier by contributing energy back to the grid.
Houses here are valued here according to heat efficiency. Newer house are around and A rating but older houses can go all the way to F. If you can find an older house with a B rating, you are considered very lucky. Anything over C is relatively poorly insulated.
Oh and for temperature, we very rarely go below 0°c unless you live closer the west coast which get blasted by Atlantic winds
My family from Ireland lived in front of a peatlands, we'd go out and dig some up to throw on a fire when it was dry. Now any time I smell something close to burning peat I'm teleported back to Ireland.

@angushogg3667 I think the area has gas and oil reserves there. The population didn't move in until the labor was needed.
Some people were living in the region since before industrialization, there were local tribes herding north deer, many farmers still do that. Others came to make money, as there is well paid seasonal work there, and higher salaries in general due to federal programs.
I understand that some probably can't move who knows but I will try my best to move out of there😮
I’m from England. I can’t imagine such cold temperatures. The coldest it gets where I live is about -3C.
In our apartment we use electric heaters, its a new structure and the units are fitted with heating and cold air for summer! Thank you so much for showing your beautiful country!! PS I'm from New York City!
I live in the other extreme, in the desert heat. We have air heaters out here which pumps heated air into the house. It's the air conditioning we're really focused on out here. The heat during the summer can approach 55°C (131°F). Thank you for showing how your homes are heated in one of the coldest cities on the Earth.

Hi, from the UK, I have a two bedroom semi detached house, we have a gas fired boiler with a radiator in each room plus several in the hall ways. Winters aren’t that harsh anymore here, Love your video. Always found your region fascinating due to the climate.
It's been pretty damn harsh the last few days, but it's rare to get more than a week or two when it's lower than 2 degrees C.
I am in Brisbane Australia in a place called Redcliffe. It averages 14c to 26c in winter and 30 to 40c on average in summer. We have a 2-way air-conditioning system that blows up to 30c hot air in winter and as low as 16c in summer. The heat comes with humidity, can make it hard to breathe if you're not use to it. The units are housed in the main room where you watch television. The other one is usually in the parent's room. Everyone else uses electric fans in summer and warmer clothes and blankets in winter. My town is called Redcliffe because we have red clay cliffs facing the sea. Great video again. Very interesting.
30c to 40c is also terrible for me as a Dutch person. I don't like temperatures above 27c anymore. When it gets that hot I don't feel like doing anything anymore and I try to stay inside as much as possible.

I asked you about indoor temperature and you made whole video about it. Thank you.
Here where I'm living, indoor temperature is 20-25C. Im lucky because in my apartment building we have central heating substation from which whole block of buildings are heated. Central heating plant (or as you said boiler house) heats up steam and under higher pressure push it through pipelines. Then in substations, overheated steam heats the water which is distributed through pipes all around block.
We don't have natural gas to cover whole country. There was plans to build gas infrastructure, but due recent events that's not going to happens.
Central heating is quite expensive. For my apartment of 76m² monthly cost is $100 over all 12 months.
I’m from the city of Chicago in Illinois, usa we have central heater in my house but some older homes have radiator still, we had -10 Fahrenheit weather yesterday and I was freezing today was about 20 Fahrenheit and it snowed you guys are very brave to live in the coldest city in the world

There in Florida people panic in cases of snow because you guys don't even own winter coats 😅 Greetings from snowy New Jersey 😊
I’m so grateful this video popped up. I’m in the north east USA and I have forced hot water. There is a furnace which heats water that is piped through the house and across radiators. It is currently 17 degrees F outside and the coldest it gets is about -5 f.
I love that you are in the coldest place on earth and you can smile. You must be an incredible person!
Its really interesting to learn that in the USA its called forced hot water- we consider this normal central heating in the UK! We have few options for heating!
What's forced hot water? Do you burn mazoot (diesel) and the system sends water through pipes?
@@louistournas120 It's literally as the name sounds - it's hot water forced through the pipes. She calls it simply "central heating" in the video. Same concept.
I live in central Maine and laugh at your -5 F. It often hits -20f in a cold snap. I have a heating oil furnace that powers a forced hot air system (meaning a fan pushes the air around the house). I burn about 200 gallons of heating oil a month in the winter costing in excess of 600 dollars.

Wow, 25C indoors is toasty! Here in the UK, I have my boiler set to 18C. Each room has its door closed which can raise the temperature to a warm ~22C. Gas costs £1 (~$1.25) for every cubic metre.
I live in a four-storey block of flats built in 1891, the outside walls are 60cm thick and the windows have triple glazing. As I live on the first floor and both the flats above and below me are heated, I really don't need to heat much with gas.
Of course, due to the change in climate, we rarely have temperatures below minus 5 degrees even at night. So the heating costs are low and less than 40 euros a month.

I'm in the US. We generally have 1 heating system for the entire house/apartment unit/condo unit and its usually gas or electric. Some places still do steam heat, but that's still one steam system per house or apartment building or condo building. I've never heard of anything in the US where there were multiple residential buildings sharing the same steam heat boiler system. Its always interesting learning about life that cold. makes me so glad I live in an area that rarely gets below -17.17C/0F and hardly any snow.
There's one in my midwestern city. A plant next to the river pipes steam to allot of buildings downtown. Its not uncommon to see steam rising from manhole covers. I believe the pipes are old.
Many colleges with older buildings use this distric-style heating. It is usually kept much too hot and your body doesn’t acclimate to winter.
Those systems were once commonly used in the northern U.S. in cities on the East Coast, near the Great Lakes and in the Midwest and plain states. A lot of that technology was replaced when steam radiators gave way to forced air HVAC systems.
@@mickeyflynn5427 Yes, steam heat in houses is common in places like New York City (where water is plentiful), but that is not centralized. Each house or apartment building has its own boiler system. However, Consolidated Edison company does do centralized steam/hot water for downtown New York City for the skyscrapers as its more cost effective supposedly to have steam radiators to heat above a certain floor regardless of how cold it is.
in Alaska, my home was heated with a furnace and glycol system. it wasn't the best way to heat our home, but it worked to keep the house a cozy +40F. To make it warmer, we use a wood stove to heat the house that would easily make it +80F in -30F (-50F with wind-chill) Stay warm!
In the Netherlands every house has a central heating boiler. Its been that way since I can remember. New houses use heat pumps. It’s a very modern way of generating energy and heat from electricity. People use different methods according to their wishes. I recently renovated my house and we use underfloor heatings and airconditioner units to generate heat in the house. We have a radiator in the bathroom and a portable radiator in the attic. We don’t have a lot of affordable gas here, so most people feel the necessity to switch to electric heat pumps.
Not every house, about 80% of the houses. We do the opposite of Yakutia, we're switching to district heating because gas is more expensive. Electric heat pumps are only used in the rich part of our society.
@ interesting, thanks for sharing your experience!!
Dat klopt maar in Nederland bevriest het gas dan ook niet in de pijpen, ben wel benieuwd hoe dit in Yakutia is opgelost, is de samenstelling van het gas anders? of worden de gas toevoeren boven nul gehouden. anders zou je bij 20 bar al een vloeibaar gas moeten verpompen?

Hello from Denmark here 🤗 Even if we don’t get the same temperatures here as you guys does, our houses are very well insulated. Obviously we have double glazed windows but our walls and roofs are insulated too. Where I live the apartment are insulated with 300 mm rockwool and there’s no leaks around the windows either. All in all it’s very cheap to heat up. The entire building where my apartment is located is heated by public central heating.
We use triple glazed window panels in denmark. Only old buildings still have double.
@ Not really. There’s heat emissions that demands that a given window are not to let out more heat than it let ín during the heating time of the year. It’s the so called A-class regulative of 2021. But it doesn’t demand that it must be 3-layers of glass. 2-layers are enough, if they can live up to the rules.
So in most cases up to 2021 it was mostly 2-layers glazing and only after 2021 that 3-layers became the norm. But still, if they can live up to the demands, 2-layers are still valid. My apartment got 2-layers and it’s from 2016, so it’s a long shot to claim it as a relic from the old days.
Another benefit with 2-layers glazing is that it let more light in!
Hey Kasper, please keep boasting about insulation at your place.

Quebec City, Canada here. We often get -25C and -30C during winter here. Most of us heat our houses or apartments with electric baseboards in each room. This is pretty efficient for our climate. Some use natural gas or fuel oil. Some use auxiliary heating sources like wood fireplaces, but many cities admins are beginning to forbid this energy source. Because they are pricks of course.
N Florida..I use a propane heater run by a BBQ grill tank..38k..BTU..amazing and can fit in an SUV..wonder if that is legal in ur building
Are they forbidding them due to the increase in smog warnings?
@@apple1667 The main reason for Justin as president is probably that the state does not get any profit from burning wood. As most people buy firewood without a receipt or chop it themselves.
I live in northern Sweden near the Arctic Circle in a medium-sized city and here you don't notice any smog, although most people light fires when it's the coldest.
If your government is trying to stop you from burning wood, ignore it for as long as possible. If that doesn't work, establish a constitutional republic. Look down for details.
Electric baseboard heat is actually like the most inefficient and ineffective and costly heating methods for a residential dwelling. As a homeowner/builder in a cold climate theyd be my last choice iykyk. Proper insulation & ductwork design and placement and forced air systems provide the better heating (& cooling) efficiency. Gas or electric infrared fireplaces are great too.

Nice to see you again. In New York, USA….we use a variety. In my 3 floor house they use an oil fueled furnace that heats a boiler. The hot water is pumped from the boiler throughout the house into radiators in the rooms and hallways which dissipate the heat. That slightly cooled water then cycles down to the boiler to be reheated and circulated back through the house.
Do you use fuel oil in the city?

In my country, we actually have "warm" 0°C (32°F) outside.
We generally have 4 types of heating our apartments or houses:
- central remote heating
- individual gas boilers
- individual oil heatings or
- traditional wood stoves (rare).
In my small apartment, I use a gas boiler to keep it warm inside. Although Germany's winters are "hot" compared to Yakutian winters, I take cold showers in the morning to boost my immune system.

I live on Waiheke Island - an island off the main city of Auckland, in the north part of the North Island in New Zealand - a very temperate climate. We rarely get a "frost" in winter (below 0 deg C) and most winter days are about 15 deg C or above. We use a heat pump - sometimes called a mini split - for heating our main living areas and if we keep the bedroom doors open, it will heat those too. If it gets too chilly we'll use a small heater in the bedrooms during the day but at night, blankets are enough to stay warm while we sleep. I am fascinated with your climate and love your videos. Thank you and a have a lovely Christmas! It's summer here and we will go to the beach on Christmas day!

There is no environmentally friendly green electricity.This is a myth!A lot of energy and environmentally harmful materials need to be spent on the production of a solar battery.But they are made in other countries and sold under the guise of clean energy. If the climate allows you to save energy, this does not mean that you can do it everywhere. Our climate in Nizhny Novgorod seems to be not too extreme, but the temperature drops in winter are very large. This week, the temperature outside jumps from -20 degrees to +2 during the week.Frosts will usually come in January and may well drop to -30 degrees and last for weeks.This is certainly not Yakutia, but very close to the European Union.
