When it comes to placing bets, Bill doesn’t partake.
He’s just not built for taking chances.
So why he chose to risk his summertime comfort on a heat pump that he knew could fail, Bill still don’t understand. All that transpired reminded Bill that he does not have the nerves for gambling. Yet, he took that chance on that old heat pump and it sure did not meet his expectations. Bill knew better than gambling on anything, much less the quality heating and air of his lake house. Since it was summer, the heating wasn’t the issue. Bill’s Heating & A/C contractor was out to do the AC tune up last Springtime. This is when he told him that the heat pump was about to be done. Bill tried to find out more on how much time he had, but of course he could not be that certain. He did inform Bill though once it broke, it could not be fixed again. That was more sensible and it would have made more sense to just replace the heat pump. Bill had actually started saving for a Heating & A/C replacement years before. But that money got reassigned to other priorities. In order to save some more money, Bill chose to roll the dice on the old heat pump last summer. He even did the best he could to reduce the load on the heat pump. Bill made it all the way to mid September before the thing gave out. The worst part of the whole thing was he had to wait a whole month before he could get a new Heating & A/C unit due to supply chain troubles. Bill is sure blissful to have the new heat pump and not have to risk that sort of Heating & A/C comfort again.
