I tend to resist change.
This has been something that I’ve wanted to change for a long time.
But there is safety plus security in structure so I tend to stick to routines or know quantities. That’s one of the reasons it took me so long to come around to new HVAC technology. I grew up inside a beach home that didn’t have the sort of quality heating plus air that my friend and I tend to take for granted these afternoons. We got our heating from a pot bellied stove fueled with firewood. Luckily, I grew up in the south so my friend and I didn’t have a large demand for heating. But when the Summer rolled around, it was rough. Those summers were difficult to deal with since my friend and I had no air conditioning. But it also didn’t kill me. So when I became a homeowner, just having central air was a large heating and cooling system. And ever since, I’ve resisted getting too much HVAC technology because I felt that it was unnecessary. However, a visit to our son’s home had changed all that for me. He has the latest in residential HVAC. There is the zone controlled HVAC which provides six separate heating plus cooling zones in his home. The SEER rating for the heat pump is nearly three times better, which also means it’s vastly more efficient. But it was the smart control device that I was so taken with. I love this thing plus am looking forward to having the HVAC professionals come out plus install a smart control device for us.
