The Heating & AC Blog

It’s September and I’m really, honestly glad about that.

Every year about this time, I cherish knowing that we are almost to the end of the heat season.

Where we live, it’s not so much Summer as it is the heat season for sure. The area is renowned for the levels of heat and humidity we get in the summer. And that overwhelming combo comes with a lot of Heating and Air Conditioning cooling indeed. That’s one of the greatest reasons I’m so ecstatic this time of the year. Soon, the demand for all that air conditioner will begin to wane. This will lead to enjoying just the best fall, winter season and Spring I’ve ever experienced. While we suffer for four months while in the summer, the rest of the year sure makes up for it. But there is another reason why I’m smiling this year. Normally, this is a time when certain flowering plants are doing their thing which leads to respected dust sensitivity symptoms for me. For sure, it’s not nearly as awful as early Spring when there is a blanket of tree and grass pollen outside for weeks. But I don’t have to worry about dust sensitivities anymore, at least inside my house. We had a whole cabin air cleaner installed to address the indoor smells. Well, that air cleaner also zaps all the pollen in the air as well. So my cabin is now a dust sensitivity refuge for me these afternoons. That’s a reason to smile for sure. And soon, that smile is only going to grow as standing outside in the sunshine for breakfast is just around the corner.

It was about an hour or just a bit more before bedtime when I got a text from my neighbor down the street.

• He wanted me to come over and hold a flashlight for him while he tested fixing the Heating and Air Conditioning cooling.

Where I live, you truly don’t want to be separated from Heating and Air Conditioning cooling during the Summer months. Sleeping in a room with an air conditioner in the Summer would make for a truly long night indeed. The fact that I live in a superb city is something I don’t take for granted. I grew up in the city and was raised inside a big home building. Along with all that radiant heating came some pretty angry neighbors. I sort of avoided my neighbors growing up and that never felt right to me. So to now be so blessed that I own my own cabin with excellent residential Heating and Air Conditioning is a big deal. And part of what makes it so superb is the fact that I’m part of the fabric of my city. Having and being nice neighbors is something I constantly wanted so I make sure that I maintain the status of a neighbor you can count on. But my stomach sort of turned when I got that text for help with a Heating and Air Conditioning repair. It wasn’t the hour or the neighbor. What made me queasy was the idea of toiling on Heating and Air Conditioning equipment. I knew better than to ever touch anything more than the temperature control or the air filter when it came to Heating and Air Conditioning equipment. The rest of it was up to the Heating and Air Conditioning professionals. So the first thing I did once I was handed a flashlight was try to gently bring up the topic of calling for an Heating and Air Conditioning serviceman.

And the swings in the indoor air quality are staggering

I honestly didn’t understand that much about the Heating and Air Conditioning in our home. This admission might result in me losing my guy card. But then again, I’m not so much the sort who is mechanically inclined or all about the house project. I can paint stuff and I’m awesome when it comes to cleaning and organizing. Yet when it comes to the heating and cooling of the house, I go to the temperature control and that’s about all I know. And if things weren’t toiling or it was time for Heating and Air Conditioning repair, I called the Heating and Air Conditioning professionals. The only thing I knew about the Heating and Air Conditioning unit was that I had to change the air filter every month. And that’s absolutely something that I made sure happened. But I was so odd about the function of the Heating and Air Conditioning unit that I honestly thought it was cleaning the air. That’s why I was changing the dirty air filters every month or so I thought. Turns out that the cheap air filters I was using weren’t designed to help the Heating and Air Conditioning unit scrub the air at all. In fact, those air filters were simply protecting the health of the Heating and Air Conditioning unit and not mine. So when I finally got the proper information, I made a few swings. First, I installed a HEPA filter which removes 99 percent of the airborne contaminants in the air. But I also went one step further and had a whole cabin air cleaner installed. And the swings in the indoor air quality are staggering. It’s like I’m living in an odd cabin these afternoons.

When my nice friend and I go on family getaway, we’ve been going to the same locale for years and years.

• But the last numerous years, my nice friend and I ditched the resort in favor of a particular getaway rental in the same area.

It’s still the same beach and all the nice stuff my nice friend and I like. But the accommodations were head and shoulders about what my nice friend and I had prior. The getaway rental even has zone controlled Heating and Air Conditioning. And my husbandy and I enjoyed having our own temperature control. It was like a dream and seemed only for getaway purposes. That’s all changed now that my nice friend and I added an addition to our home. Our ladies, who are just over a year apart, got to an age where sharing a room with each other was not going to work. The idea of buying a current cabin in this market was out. So my nice friend and I chose to add value to our current cabin by adding an addition. It wasn’t any addition either but a master family room and washroom suite. The end result is even better than I thought it could be. My friend and I have vaulted ceilings, our own little deck and a magnificent washroom all our own. On top of that, my nice friend and I know have the coveted temperature control in our room. The current addition has a ductless heat pump that provides quality heating and air to the current family room. What’s more, my nice friend and I have a remote control so my nice friend and I can even change the temperature control from bed! Talk about living the life. The ladies now have their own rooms which has brought considerably more peace to our lives. And my nice friend and I have our own private getaway space and don’t have to take a getaway to enjoy our own Heating and Air Conditioning temperature control setting.

 

Heat pump

I just was over the fact that I was spending more and more money each year on Heating and Air Conditioning cooling.

Where my nice friend and I live, there aren’t too several costs neighbord with Heating and Air Conditioning heating as our winters are honestly super mild.

The heat pump gets it’s toil in when it comes to Heating and Air Conditioning cooling. For sure, one could have the air conditioner on from mid March to even early September. And that’s sort of what my nice friend and I were doing. It was like my nice friend and I opted to go straight for the temperature control setting once the temps got near 74. That’s all well in nice when the highs for the day are like 74. But by the time my nice friend and I get to June, the highs are hovering right around triple digits and that comes with a double dose of humidity as well. So by the time you get to this point in the year, there is a sizable separation between inside and outside temperature. And that ends up costing a ton when it comes to Heating and Air Conditioning cooling costs. So this Spring, I decided to take a odd approach. Once the Spring air conditioner tune up was completed by the Heating and Air Conditioning professional, I just sort of left it alone. Instead of cranking the Heating and Air Conditioning cooling at the beginning of the temperature rise, I opened the windows and just put out some fans. It was honestly quite a revelation. I found that I acclimated to the rising temperatures quite well. So once it was constantly creeping up into the nineties, I flipped on the air conditioner. But of course, having acclimated to the heat, I needed far less air conditioner this summer. This approach saved me hundreds of dollars over the course of the Summer months.

How do you know when you have found the right air conditioning system for you? Well it isn’t always easy but normally it’s one that works really well for you and continues to last for a long time.

A good heating and cooling system should not only save you energy, but should also last a long time.

The last thing that you want to be doing is spending a ton of money on an air conditioning system that doesn’t even work well. Although finding the right one for you can be a bit challenging simply because of how many air conditioning systems are available on the market to choose from today. In a way you have almost too many options. Have you ever gone to a heat and AC business and seen how many air conditioning products they have? I have and it was overwhelming! It took me forever to find the one that I thought would be perfect for me but I found it in a ductless mini split system. A ductless mini split system is great because they are better than the cheaper alternative, the window AC but are not as costly as a central air conditioning system. I love my little ductless mini split and half the times I use it more than I use my actual central cooling system. I know that I have found what is right for me. Now with some good care and regular maintenance my ductless mini split air conditioner should last me for a long time.

When the heating and cooling came out with a brand new air purification system I was going to have to try.

I had never owned a beer before but I think that it was time that I got one because I had noticed that I was trying to have terrible indoor air quality in my home.

I’m pretty sure the cause of my terrible indoor air quality was the fact that I had so many pets in the house. Additionally, I also do a lot of cooking. It is because I do a lot of cooking that this causes me to have a lot of odors in my home. Because I have so many glitters in my house that it creates bad indoor air quality. Obviously I do not want to continue to live with bad indoor air quality so I’m looking for a way to take care of my bad indoor air quality once and for all. So one of the ways I decided to take care of my indoor air quality was to go to my local heating and air conditioning business. My local heating and air conditioning company has a lot of HVAC products that are for available for purchase. So when I looked at a lot of their air purification systems there it didn’t take me long to find one that I wanted. I decided to go with a simple standing air purifier and I ended up buying three of them. I placed the three standing near purifiers in different rooms of the house. One in the bedroom, one in the living room, and one in the kitchen. Between the three of them I have noticed an increase in the quality of my indoor air. Let me tell you what a wonderful feeling it is to be able to walk into your home and breathe in clean and fresh air and not having to worry about living in an environment with bad indoor air quality.
