It was such a shock when it came to replace the AC in my home.
So, I always make sure it’s in the best condition so I can have my investment for a long time.
When I relocated from the north, I was finally happy to be done with frigid winters. I know some people don’t mind the cold. But that wasn’t for me at all even though I was born in the area. I’d be longing for summer all winter, and never want the heat to end. But, every October, you could feel the weather change, and I knew another cold season was on its way. Well, a job opportunity came up, and I knew that was my chance to move down south where the weather was perfect. They do have lots of heat, but the winters are nice and mild. I stayed in an apartment for a short period, did some house hunting, and bought the perfect lake house. It’s in an amazing location, and the best part was the house came with a functioning AC. I had to pay a bit more for a waterfront lake house, so I didn’t have extra at that time to replace the AC. Thankfully, the previous owner had taken good care of the AC, and I ended up using it for an extra 5 years. Time came when it was time for AC replacement, and the total cost knocked the wind out of me. So, as the HVAC worker did his job, we got to talk about AC maintenance that I can do to prolong its life span. Now I implement that each year, and I’m hoping to have it for more than 15 years.
