I would also add that the wind chill effect is not recognized or calculated for temperatures above 50 degrees Fahrenheit. So, unless you are cooling your house down to below 50 degrees, the wind chill effect does not even apply.
Wind chill felt on skin has nothing to Do with air temperature but movement of air across skin. Just like when you’re hot and sweetie or get out of shower when A/c on or fan going. So, you don’t agree with science?
