When I first started to live out here, it was so weird than it is now.
Even with all the planning and strategic execution of the plan, it was strenuous at first.
Living off the grid is not something that was done very often back when I chose to do it. But these mornings, I even have residential Heating, Ventilation & A/C in my house way out here in the deep woods. It was so funny when the Heating, Ventilation & A/C tech had to follow me all the way out here. I had paid a bit extra for them to make the trip. Still, that Heating, Ventilation & A/C tech was pretty blown away by how far out in the woods I actually live. The Heating, Ventilation & A/C tech was able to install the ductless heat pump that afternoon and was back in the world by eveningfall. After that I was the proud owner of a ductless heat pump. It’s just me and my wife Max out here so it’s not like we need a ton of space. So just one ductless heat pump was all that was absolutely needed. When it comes to heating, the wood stove provides all of that and then a little more. But as Max and I are getting older, we sure wanted some air conditioning for the Summer months. It can become thick and sizzling here to the point that fans just weren’t chopping it. With the advanced solar array Max installed along with the advancements in Heating, Ventilation & A/C technology made residential Heating, Ventilation & A/C an opening for us. Max even used the heating from the ductless heating pump a few times this past Winter, however normally, there is a fire going for heating all Winter. But when we need to travel or go somewhere overnight, it’s nice to have the ductless heating pump while I get the fire lit again.
