My fiance called it when she asked for HVAC cooling

When our fiance Ed is right, he is so right.

And I’ll be the first to admit it, as well as acknowledge our own idiocy.

For at least a decade, Ed has genuinely wanted HVAC cooling added to the central air conditioning. I resisted Ed’s suggestion for a very long time. All of us live so far north that it rarely gets warm but for maybe a couple weeks in the summer. And that heat is relative considering what our nearest neighbors to the South go through in the summer. I had constantly put up a window air conditioning unit in our bedroom so the two of us could sleep comfortably. That’s all the HVAC cooling I ever needed. Yet as the two of us aged, Ed was just more as well as more adamant about adding an HVAC cooling unit to the central air conditioning. Finally, I agreed to go with Ed to talk with an HVAC company. The HVAC professional Ed and I met with was awesome, however eventually, he came to the home to inspect everything. This is the same HVAC dealership that put in our modern gas furnace a few years back. All of us also have a wood burning stove that serves as both supplemental heating as well as an emergency heating source. When he was done with the inspection as well as measuring, the two of us got down to brass tacks. I was quite pleasantly surprised at how affordable adding HVAC cooling was. It wasn’t all that much more money than having to buy a window air conditioner every numerous years. Boy it sure makes a difference when it gets warm to have HVAC cooling. Ed was actually right as well as I tip our cap.

Thinking long term when it came to modern HVAC equipment

I guess our choice of heater as well as AC is indicative of our plans to stay put for the duration.

My fiance Max as well as I are about to turn 50 as well as the two of us got married genuinely young.

Max had kids immediately as well as that last child is graduating from university next year. So with the young men grown up as well as out in the world, the two of us were ready to get our home listed. Max and I knew that the two of us would need to replace the HVAC unit in order to get the most for our home. But Max and I wanted to take advantage of the warm real estate market. Indeed, Max got the number the two of us were looking for as well as it was a bit staggering… Due to that windfall, Max and I were able to build the home we’ve been thinking about for a long time. It felt so exciting to be in on the design of what appears to be the home we are going to stay in. It’s humorous that neither of us were genuinely all that gleeful about moving elsewhere after retirement. And the choices of HVAC equipment reflects that. Our modern stadium is all in 1 single floor as well as has 2 bedrooms with a nice cabin office that can be a third bedroom if Max and I needed it. The residential HVAC for our cabin is a geothermal heat pump. This style of HVAC equipment is not only super efficient as well as sustainable, it lasts a long time. We’re talking close to maybe 40 Years of heating as well as cooling from this good heating pump. All of us love the radiant floor heating for the Winter as it’s just the coziest. And of course, Max and I get terrific HVAC cooling in the summer. I love this home as well as can totally see us residing here for good.

Breathing simply thanks to the new air purification system

The idea of going to the HVAC dealership when it came to the indoor air of our cabin was the correct call.

I knew this but our stubborn fiance Bob was resistant.

We’ve been together a long time as our men are just about grown. The last kid will be off to university next year. With just the 2 of us the two of us genuinely are considering selling this old house. It’s sort of been a sizable investment for Bob and I that we wanted to cash in on when the real estate market was right. I guess this got Bob to see how important air purification might be when it comes to the added value of our home. This kind of air purification system is not the kind that you have to transport around the house. This kind of air purification program is installed inside the HVAC equipment by HVAC pros. There’s no need for either of us to be cleaning the filters or having to transport it from room-to-room to clean the air. I guess that was what was most good to me about the whole cabin air purification system. However, I was genuinely needing some fine indoor air conditions. Neither Bob nor myself were aware of just how important could indoor air conditions is to our health. The more Bob and I gained from our HVAC professional, the more the two of us realized how fundamental high indoor air conditions are to our health. The HVAC professional assured me that the inside of our cabin would not only be free of odors. I sure needed help with that given all the intense smells in our home. Bob and I went with that whole cabin air purification program as well as we could not be happier.

The HVAC professionals will get the task done right

The weather in this region can be a bit schizophrenic as well as dire at times.

This includes some intense storms that hit with painful regularity.

Here that just comes with the territory as well as you have to be ready for regular power outages. Nobody wants to go without HVAC while the power is out. But that sort of comes with the territory. All of us have a solar generator which provides enough to run a light or the two of us charge our iPhones. It’s good that it simply charges by sitting out in the sun hooked up to a solar panel. So between the solar generator as well as our propane grill, we are generally set until the lights are back on. That can take many afternoons up to a month sometimes. All of us had a storm not too long ago that was particularly bad as well as caused tons of disfigure. A friend of mine ended up getting mangle to the HVAC equipment outside his house. He was thinking that he would call a local handyman to come remedy the situation. I warned him that this was not a fine idea. Only a certified as well as licensed HVAC expert should task on HVAC equipment. However, our friend just wasn’t having any of it as well as called a handyman. That handyman was able to get the air conditioning running again. And for sure, the handyman charged less than the HVAC dealer would have. But inevitably, you get what you pay for. My friend enjoyed his air conditioning being fixed for about a month before it broke again. Of course, the local handyman did not provide any sort of guarantee for his service. This time, our friend did the smart thing as well as called HVAC professionals. They fixed it right as well as guaranteed all of their work.

Be sure to learn ins and outs of your HVAC warranty

I’ve never been great about studying the fine print.

And it’s even worse these afternoons because everything being online.

I tend to just hit accept then transport on. But that sort of behavior can catch up to a man in the worst way. Basically, I have pretty much paid no attention to the directions or warranties whenever I buy stuff. And love I said earlier, that approach will cost you. Not too long ago, Ed and I replaced the HV \AC equipment in our home. Our old HVAC equipment held up for almost 25 years, so it was time to transport on to better HVAC technology in our residential HVAC. The procedure was made so much easier thanks to the HVAC company from the local HVAC business. We’ve constantly used the same HVAC dealer since the two of us moved here. This HVAC pro did a complete inspection of our home from the HVAC duct to measuring our air volume. He also helped us tremendously when it came to understanding the many different options in front of us. The evolution of HVAC technology in the last 25 years has been truly remarkable. So his help was essential in figuring out our heating as well as cooling needs. The whole process was quite seamless with the replacement being so precise. Once it was all done, the HVAC company told Ed to learn the warranty as well as be sure to register that warranty. Of course I did nothing. Thankfully, Ed registered the warranty the next day. It wasn’t too long after the two of us had the HVAC equipment that I thought that something felt different about it as well as I wanted to explore. Ed had learned the HVAC warranty as well as stopped me from voiding it. Only an HVAC pro is allowed to task on the heating as well as cooling equipment without voiding the HVAC warranty.

A rude awakening to Winter as well as lots of heating

But when Winter arrived, it was a whole other animal.

When I was first considering all the challenges that I would face if I took a more modern position, I wasn’t thinking about the weather at all. I was more anxious about leaving the zone controlled HVAC of the office where I had worked for more than 10 years. I wasn’t 100% sure that I would be able to leave these people I had worked alongside for such a long period of time. The thought that I was going from air conditioning to heating as the prime focus of HVAC wasn’t on our radar. So I took the task as well as I moved all the way out here. That was the first time that I genuinely moved away from our home town. I even went to university only an third away from where I grew up. When I landed the position in the commercial HVAC of our first office, I still wasn’t many thirds from where I grew up. So the change was a genuinely sizable deal as well as I should have considered it a bit more. Yet, I felt genuinely focused on the task for the first numerous weeks or so. This paid off for me, as I built trust with our modern team. I was also pretty pleased with how comfortable the summer season was up here. I didn’t need so much air conditioning in our modern home. But when Winter arrived, it was a whole other animal. I have to admit that I am just now getting over the shock as well as awe over just how cold Winter can be here. I am so thankful that our modern stadium comes with a modern natural gas furnace as area of our central air conditioning. It sure saved me that first Winter season as I could hardly leave the HVAC heating of our home except for the office.

Home prep saves on HVAC heating bills

I wish I had gotten to do the Winter prep on the house much sooner.

This is our third Winter as well as I’m just now figuring out how vital it is to prep the home for the cold.

And it’s pretty elementary since it’s all about keeping a very narrow seal around the house. All of us moved up here three years back, and I genuinely had no clue what a real Winter was all about. That first Winter here is still burned in our mind with all the snow as well as ice. It was all I could do to just keep running the heater to stay warm. The third single was better because I thought I was dealing with what I just assumed was just the cost of doing the dealer when it came to heating our home. Thankfully, the pair of us have some good neighbors, then one gentleman genuinely help me understand the vast importance of Winter prep on the house. It makes all the difference when it comes to high heating costs. Three years prior I just wasn’t helping the gas furnace because the home wasn’t prepared. So last summer, I spent an even-handed amount of time making sure it was done respectfully. I started by replacing the old weather stripping as well as putting a modern storm door on the front entrance… Next, I added another layer of insulation to the attic. I spent a couple weekends going over every area of the exterior of our place as well. I filled in every gap or crack I could find… From top to bottom, the home was sealed up tight as a drum. I put the exclamation point on our Winter preparations by having the HVAC professionals come out as well as do the heater maintenance. I am going to save some money this year.

We dealt with the heat as well as saved on HVAC

Finally, it had become quite apparent that dealing with the intense heat as well as humidity of our modern cabin region was necessary.

Once Ed and I moved to the South, the two of us were both blown away by the heat as well as humidity while I was in the summer weeks, then basically from August all the way through August, you don’t want to be too far from HVAC cooling! My fiance Ed as well as I just took that idea as well as ran with it, but while it’s important to have HVAC cooling here in the summer, we can take it too far, then it’s important to get a handle on HVAC cooling once we have been down here a little bit! All of us spent so much money on air conditioning over the 1st couple of summers, however so much money that it pains me to even guess about it.

So last Spring, Ed and I decided that we had get control over the cost of HVAC cooling. Ed got the home narrow as well as made sure the two of us got the type of solar shades that would stop the direct light heating, however these were important steps for sure! However, it was the combo of acclimating to the heat as well as being more disciplined with the temperature control setting that genuinely made the biggest difference. Ed and I were able to challenge ourselves last Spring not to turn on the air conditioning until it genuinely got humid. This allowed us to adjust to the weather conditions a bit better to the heat as well as humidity so it wasn’t so overwhelming once the dog days of August came along. Being a bit more accustomed to the heat, Ed and I were able to have a much higher temperature control setting throughout the summer. This saved a lot on HVAC cooling cost.

Air conditioning wasn’t working well in summer school

Even though teachers get the summers off, we do not get paid during that time. The majority of teachers work during the summer to make ends meet. I decided to work summer school last year. I figured it would be a good way to make some extra money and I love teaching so it didn’t sound like a bad deal. I do live in the south, but my assumption was that there would be central air conditioning in my summer school classroom. I am accustomed to air conditioning working in my school because the building I work in is newer. However, for summer school I was moved to the main building that was built over one hundred years ago. I got to my classroom and only had about an hour to set up before my students arrived. It felt warm at first, but I figured it was because I had to walk up the stairway that does not have air conditioning. It looked like the digital thermostat was on in my classroom. My students arrived and they were immediately complaining about the heat. I realized at that moment it was not just me who was feeling overheated. I called the main office and the secretary told me that all of the summer school teachers have been calling about their air conditioning not working as well. The secretary informed me that the HVAC company sent HVAC workers and they are on the way. I could not fathom that the school wanted to continue summer school classes without proper air conditioning. I did my best to teach even though the heat made me feel like I wanted to pass out.

Steps to help someone with hypothermia

Hypothermia is when your body starts to lose heat, and it cannot produce heat fast enough.

An easy way to remember what hypothermia means is that the prefix hypo means low, the root word therm means heat, and the suffix “ia” means pertaining to.

Hypothermia is caused by being exposed to extremely cold weather for too long, or if your body is submerged in cold water. Hypothermia is a medical emergency because if your body cannot produce enough heat, your organs will not work normally and it could cause your heart to shut down. Treating hypothermia immediately and correctly can increase the chances of survival. To help someone with hypothermia, you should first call 911 then take the following first aid steps until emergency medical services arrive. First, gently move the person out of the cold into a dry, heated area. Then remove any wet clothing or gloves that they have on and cover them in blankets. You can cover everything in blankets, except for their face. Make sure to put layers of blankets on the person to help them regain and retain heat. If you are in your own home, make sure your central heat is on. You can also give the person a warm or hot beverage that is non alcoholic. Make sure to check if they are breathing normally while you wait for emergency medical services to arrive. Do not apply direct heat to the person, such as hot water or a heating pad. Once the patient gets to the hospital, the medical providers may give them a warm solution in their IV.
