Letting HVAC technology run the show

It hasn’t been easy for me living through all of this technology revolution.

For sure, being in my late fifties has something to do with it.

But I also know plenty of people my age who thrive on getting the latest tech gadget. Perhaps my occupation has had something to do with my resistance to technology. I don’t work in a fancy office with perfect commercial HVAC. In fact, I don’t work inside the air conditioning at all. I started a business out of nothing when I was just twenty years old. I made it two years inside a dorm room with radiant heating during college before I dropped out. I just couldn’t understand spending money on an education that I didn’t really have a passion for. So out of necessity, I got out of the air conditioning and started mowing lawns. Before long, I had a whole maintenance outfit and it grew from there. I ended up learning about landscaping and getting credentialed when it comes to commercial landscaping. And that’s what I’ve been doing my whole career. But things are slowing down now for me. I have very capable people running the business so I’m inside the air conditioning of my home a lot more of the day. As a sort of present, my son gave me a smart thermostat. Initially, I was going to re-gift it to somebody else. But then I got to thinking that perhaps this new HVAC technology could really work for me. I’m so glad I had that smart thermostat installed by the HVAC professionals. Not only is it super convenient not to have to worry about the heating and cooling in my house any longer. But that smart thermostat is saving me a bunch of money as well.

Local HVAC company so helpful during our recent move

I’m still not so happy about the way things turned out.

Moving here was something that my wife and I just didn’t think would be in the cards.

But the economy really shook the company I work for and I really didn’t have much choice. When the big bosses call you into the splendid air conditioning of the conference room, it gets your attention. I was sitting across from three layers of bosses who were pressing me to come to this office and straighten things out. That is not the easiest position to find yourself in. And it’s even tougher to say no. I’ve only worked for one company since I left college. And I definitely made my bones early in my career by being willing to take on the tough challenges. This led to my wife and I having to move all around the country. We went from winters where we had to have a gas furnace running all the time to really hot summers and tons of air conditioning. But finally, we were assured that we could finally put down some roots. And that’s exactly what we did by buying a house and renovating it. We got the kitchen of our dreams as well as the latest in residential HVAC and HVAC technology. But as soon as everything was done, we had to sell it. I will give high praise to the local HVAC company as they were very helpful when it came to relocating. Our HVAC professionals actually put together a list of new HVAC companies where we were moving. So at least we have that going for us.

Disappointed with dinner out and the lack of good heating and cooling

It was apparent as soon as we walked through the door of this restaurant that my wife and I had been dying to try.

The commercial HVAC was either overwhelmed or not even turned on.

Of course, we live in a region where the heat and humidity can be intense particularly during the summer. But we went to this restaurant in October when the temperatures were much more reasonable. October temperatures can still be quite warm so there is still some demand for air conditioning. But that probably goes double for a restaurant. Given the outside temperature and the fact that there are all kinds of hot surfaces in a commercial kitchen, one would think HVAC would be a priority. The restaurant itself was nice enough inside and had a nice little unique quality to it. The service seemed good and attentive for as long as we were there. My wife and I looked at each other pretty quick after being seated at our table. We were both thinking the same thing which was where was the air conditioning. The waiter came by and took our drink orders and actually that’s as far as we got. My wife and I finished our cocktails and asked for the check. It stuns me that a place a business doesn’t invest in quality commercial HVAC. I guess we won’t be going back there. And that’s such a shame because we really enjoy dining out. And we always make a point of going to locally owned restaurants. We’d much rather give our money to a small business owner than a big corporation. But if they can’t get the air conditioning right, I’m not sure that they are ready to be doing business.

Turn to the HVAC professionals for service and repair

Most of us don’t think twice about getting an oil change for the car

I’m still learning what it takes to be a homeowner. In my mind, I guess I thought it would be all green lights once I signed the papers and got the keys to the front door. But that was really just the beginning. To actually get into a house, I had to go with one that needed a whole lot of care. So right away, I had to get to work. One of the first things we had to do was to replace the heating and cooling equipment. Of course, that’s the domain of the HVAC professional. I’m not dumb enough to think that I could even work on an HVAC unit much less install one. But I have plenty of buddies who think on that level and have been really disappointed by the outcome of their actions. So I definitely took note of that. Once the new HVAC unit was installed, I immediately turned to the HVAC company again. This time, it was more about protecting my investment. I ended up joining the HVAC service plan the very day after the residential HVAC was installed. For sure, just like any other essential appliance, the residential HVAC needs attention. Most of us don’t think twice about getting an oil change for the car. But we sort of ignore the heating and cooling equipment at our peril. I’m glad to have consistent, seasonal HVAC maintenance to protect my residential HVAC. And of course, if I ever run into any kind of issue, I would turn to the HVAC professionals as well.

Heat pump is the go to around here

There were plenty of things that I had to get accustomed to when I moved from the north.

And I didn’t just move a bit, I moved all the way down south.

For sure, I don’t regret it at all. I love the fact that I’m not paying high heating bills because my gas furnace is running non stop. And just being able to be outside in the sun is a big bonus for sure. I love the weather down here this time of year. That was easy to get accustomed to. But the summer was another thing altogether. I remember my first summer down here and it was extreme to say the least. The level of heat and humidity in this region is staggering. Of course, I heard all about this before I moved down here. But experiencing this kind of summer heat is much different then simply acknowledging that it exists. But thankfully, there is a go to residential HVAC solution to that heat. It was clear from the moment I moved down here that the heat pump was definitely the heating and cooling equipment of choice. And for obvious reasons I might add. There isn’t much need for heating but the heat pump can supply any level of heat that we need in this region. But the primary function of a heat pump really is cooling off house. It’s been 5 years now and I’m becoming more acclimated to that sort of level of heat. But I’m sure glad to have the heat pump in my corner.

Finding the heating thief saves big currency

I’ve never been a fan of winter.

  • And I’m not even particularly from around here.

Where I grew up, there was some winter weather but it was nothing like what I experience these afternoons. My parents had a fantastic home that I was lucky enough to grow up in. Our heating method was a wood stove primarily! However, that’s because my dad number one it and my pal and I lived on a lot of acreage with plenty of available firewood. But my pal and I also had a heat pump that gave heating on the afternoons that weren’t all that cold. And our neighbors all had heat pumps as well. It could get cold but nothing like what I’m dealing with now, and yet this year, my pal and I are doing so much better thanks to me finally tracking down a heating thief. Since we’ve been up here and in this house, I’ve not been completely committed to winter prep on the house. Of course, each fall I call the Heating as well as A/C supplier to set the appointment for the heating repair. That’s something that I’ve always done as it just makes nice sense. But as far as the home was nervous, I was sort of hit and miss. But this year, I particularly took winter preparation on the home a lot more seriously. I even went so far as to get a thermal gun in order to find the source of a big heating leak in our home. This instant learn temperature gun allowed me to see just where the heat was pouring out of the house. I was surprised to find so multiple small leaks. But I finally found the particularly big one and was able to seal that up for good. Having a tighter home has made the winter in our home so much more comfortable.

A quiet spot gets some residential Heating as well as A/C

I try to get out of the central a/c of my home and out to our spot in the woods at least a couple times a month.

And since it’s fairly close, I sporadically just go for day trips. But if somebody will go with me, I am always up for making a weekend of it. That’s the rub though, getting my family out of the residential Heating as well as A/C of the home is tough. They simply don’t like the idea of roughing it one bit. And that goes double when there is no quality heating and air coming from some Heating as well as A/C equipment. Over the last few years, I could count on one hand the times that any member of my family wanted to go up to the cabin. It’s difficult for me to understand given how appealing it is there. In the summertime, there is a freshwater lake that is just entirely appealing. And all year long there are miles and miles of trails for hiking and taking in all that vast beauty. Still, I was the only one that was willing to leave the central a/c of home to appreciate it. As the kids are getting older, I particularly wanted to change how they perceived the cabin. So I had the Heating as well as A/C supplier come out and install three ductless heat pumps to give residential Heating as well as A/C. Then I got about sprucing the place up with fresh paint, modern furnishings and comfortable beds. I sort of had an unveiling this past fall and my family just was wild about the upgrades. I also loved having that ductless heat pumps for some heating before I get the stove lit when I first arrive to the home during the winter.
