When my wife and I were building our home, we got to pick just about every detail ourselves.
Sometimes, we felt like we had too many choices that we weren’t even sure how to make.
For example, we had to choose our heating and cooling method. We both just grew up with a furnace and air conditioning combination, which is the most common heating and cooling method. However, there seems to be so many new options. We were left feeling unsure of what heating and cooling option would be best for us. We did a little research to see the pros and cons of the furnace and air conditioner combination. Some of the benefits of this method include high efficiency for an affordable cost, as well as an affordable installation and purchase price. There are also a whole bunch of brands and features to choose from. However, this type of heating and cooling would require ductwork, which is another thing we’d have to have installed into the home. There is also a risk of carbon monoxide leaks when you use a natural gas furnace. Finally, the air from a furnace may produce less comfortable heat. After weighing these options, my wife and I decided to go with the furnace and air conditioner combination that we’ve known and enjoyed throughout our lives thus far. There’s no need to overcomplicate things!
