I wanted a bathroom space heater.

My upstairs bathroom had no heater installed. I wanted a bathroom that was heated. When I got out of the steaming how shower, I didn’t want to start shivering while toweling off. My hubby Bob told me to go into the kitchen and dry off. I reminded Bob his parents now lived in our house. I asked Bob if I could please get a space furnace for the upstairs bathroom? Bob asked me to remind him and the next time my associate and I were in town, he would option one up. That was well over five months ago, and now it is almost summer. I went without a space furnace the whole rest of winter, and no one however me remembered. Bob’s father had his say when I mentioned it in front of him. I asked Bob if my associate and I could run into town over the weekend and option up our bathroom space heater. Bob’s father went into a long speech about how they didn’t have boilers when they were young. Bob had to depend on a fireplace to heat their entire house, however no one argued. Bob didn’t even have a bathroom in the house, to need a space heater, then he ran to the outhouse, day or evening, regardless of the weather, and he never complained about not having heated toilet seats. I thanked him for his story, and I walked back to the kitchen. I feel Bob was thinking about his dad when he conveniently forgot to purchase my space furnace every time he went into town. They are now in a senior residing center and I’m hoping Bob remembers my associate and I need a bathroom space furnace this year.

I installed a new air conditioning system under the bed.

Ever since my wife Helen saw they made sheets that were self cooling and self cleaning, she had been yelping about needing to try them.

I could not understand how a sheet could self wash itself. There is a lot of dirt and stains that I’m sure a sheet can’t clean. Helen told me I wasn’t imaginative enough, however my imagination worked overtime sometimes. Helen told me if I enjoyed her, I would buy the sheets. Even if they weren’t self-cleaning, Helen would like self-cooling sheets. I was in town a week later, and I saw a cool little air conditioning system. It was quite cheap so I bought it, along with a child’s playhouse sized washer. I put the air conditioning system under our bed, however not back far enough where Helen wouldn’t see it when she walked in the door. The washing machine was on the other side of the room, along with an instruction sheet entitled; to the sheets. When Helen walked in the kitchen I heard her smart comment, however she was laughing. Helen had found the washer before she found the air conditioning unit. I told her her real gift was on my side of the bed. Helen pulled out the portable air conditioning system and asked what that was for? I told Helen my associates and I could turn on the air conditioning system before she and I made the decision to go to bed, and it would cool off the entire bed, and not just the sheets. Helen slapped my arm as she burst out laughing. It wasn’t what she asked for, however at least Helen took it as a joke, and never asked about self-cleaning or self-cooling sheets again.

We are enjoying our new air conditioning unit.

For the past five years, my associate Kim and I had spent hundreds of bucks on HVAC repairs, and had many, many uncomfortable hours with our air conditioning system.

The central air conditioning system had either been broken or laboring poorly. My wife Kim said she wanted a new air conditioner some time this year. I knew the utility bills were going up, although I thought it was because of the rate hikes. My wife Kim told me it was because of the old air conditioning unit. It had been costing us hundreds of dollars more on electric bills along with the added repairs and discomfort. I was agreeing with Kim that my associate and I were getting a new air conditioning unit. Kim called the Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier and told them my associate and I needed the Heating, Ventilation and A/C business. Kim and I wanted to get measured for a new air conditioning unit. Kim and I had so more than 2 choices provided to us, my associate and I were overwhelmed. Not only did Kim and I need to decide what air conditioning machine my associate and I wanted, however Kim and I had to tell them what SEER my associate and I wanted. Kim and I didn’t know what SEER was until the Heating, Ventilation and A/C business told us. Then Kim said she wanted a high SEER because I wanted top quality efficiency. He asked if Kim and I were interested in a new media air cleaner for the house. He had to make sure the air conditioning machines would be compatible with the media air cleaner. I finally told him to leave us all the information, and Kim and I would make a decision then call him back. He apologized for throwing so much information at us. He sent us to the website and said it explained everything he had asked, much better than the pamphlets he had provided us.

I didn’t want to work with that Heating, Ventilation and A/C tech.

Freshly after Heating, Ventilation and A/C college I started my apprenticeship.

I wasn’t sure what to expect, even though I knew I was to work with their top Heating, Ventilation and A/C workers for the next 8 to 10 weeks.

The first Heating, Ventilation and A/C worker was rude and I was praying I would never have to work with him again. He was always bragging about what a brilliant Heating, Ventilation and A/C worker he was. He acted like he was the smartest Heating, Ventilation and A/C worker to ever be born. I huffed at his cocky attitude, and rolled my eyup. Being a person that is a Heating, Ventilation and A/C worker is daunting, needing to work with someone like him was going to be far worse. I was waiting for the owner of the Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier to introduce me to the professor, when the Heating, Ventilation and A/C worker came up to me. He asked if I was 100% ready to work, and I knew he was flexing his muscles under his shirt. Before I thought, I stood and looked up. The dude was almost a foot and a half taller than me, and easily a hundred twenty pounds heavier, although I wasn’t afraid of him. I told him I was ready to go to work when I went into the Heating, Ventilation and A/C office. I hoped I wasn’t laboring with a rude dude like him. He laughed when I said that and walked into the office. The secretary was trying her best not to giggle and asked if I had met the owner of the Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier. I told her I had only talked to him over the iPhone. She nodded at the door and told me he had just went into his office, and all I could do was groan.

A close encounter with a tornado and an air conditioning system.

I was terrified the tornado would option me up and send me flying, however that didn’t happen.

We rarely have destructive tornadoes in our area, however when the wind blows from all directions, my associates and I all make sure to keep our ears and eyeballs open. The sky will take on an unmistakable hue that can only lead to terrible weather conditions. When the wind begins blowing hard and the leaves are turning inside out, my Grandmother told us to take cover. This was one of those wicked storms. My dad told us to stay close to the house and to keep an eye on the skies. I was just about five miles away from the house when I heard the tornado warnings going off. I could see a big funnel out my rear window, and I revved the engine. I remembered this motion picture about people chasing tornadoes, and at one point the weather girl said they had cows. I looked out my window and I had an air conditioning system. This air conditioning machine was tumbling down the road, and I wanted to make sure it didn’t collide with my truck. The tornado seemed to be following the exact same path as the air conditioning, which was following my route. I was terrified the tornado would option me up and send me flying, however that didn’t happen. All I had was an air conditioning machine following me down the 2-lane road, and tumbling across the road into my neighbor’s front yard. This storm was so much more peculiar from any tornado I had ever experienced. When I got into the house, my folks asked if I had seen the air conditioning system that flew into our neighbor’s yard. I told them I hadn’t just seen it, however it also chased me down the road for almost a mile.

No one called the Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier.

My hubby Tom and I had safety measures locked down for almost any situation. Tom and I knew what my associates and I would do if storms came through, or natural disasters occurred. The one thing Tom and I hadn’t figured out was who was going to call the Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier, police, or ambulance. When a major ice storm hit this area earlier in the Spring, Tom and I were left with no power. When the power came back on, the furnace wasn’t laboring. I remembered Tom saying that my associates and I needed to know who was going to make iPhone calls, however it hadn’t happened. Tom and I were all looking at each other and wondering who, if anyone, had called our Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier? I didn’t want to call if someone else had, and Tom was thinking the same thing. An hour later, there was a knock on the door. There was the Heating, Ventilation and A/C worker, and he said he was there to look at the heater. Whoever had called was the first person to call the Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier before any other homeowners without a working central heater. I asked the Heating, Ventilation and A/C worker who had called, and he told us he didn’t know who, and that he was given the address and the name of the owner. He just knew he had to get a gas furnace running. About an hour later, my furnace was laboring and my associate and I were able to remove our winter coats. Our child came downstairs and said it felt lovely inside! She smiled and told Tom and I to say thank you. She called the Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier. She knew no one else was elected to do it, so she took on the job.

The hurricane, and the broken air conditioning system, ruined everything.

I had been studying the weather for almost two weeks! That was two weeks before my anniversary shindig! I wanted to make sure I had a perfect day for my anniversary party, however it didn’t look like it was going to happen, however every forecast I looked at, it looked like I was going to have a miserable day, and our local station was showing Sam and I could get the tail end of a hurricane; Depending on how close the storm came, Sam and I could have a beautiful and cool day.

  • The other scenario was a lot of rain, and an option of flooding.

I had to wait until the day before the anniversary before Ed and I even had a hint of what the weather was going to bring. I was glued to the TV the day before my anniversary party. I wanted to know what was going to happen the next day. The hurricane had been downgraded, yet the tropical storm was heading towards us. They said the uneven temperatures could drop 10 to 15 degrees, however it was going to be raining. We woke up to a blinding rain, high winds, and a broken air conditioning system! Sam was wondering what my associate and I were going to do with his Grandparents, and I was upset about all of our guests! An hour later, people were calling to cancel their coming to the anniversary party. I was going to postpone the anniversary! Without air conditioning, and no caterer, Sam and I were stuck. I called the Heating, Ventilation and A/C supplier and asked if we could get the air conditioning machine repaired. The Heating, Ventilation and A/C expert asked if my associate and I had a rowboat at the same time Sam’s Grandparents came through the door. They were soaked and asking if my associate and I had the heat turned on. They were our only guests.
