Month: May 2023

I own a local landscaping biz & going to work every afternoon is truly a bit of a passion & not just a task, i cherish how I don’t need to spend my afternoons inside some office with zone controlled Heating & Air Conditioning; There is no tie or costly shoes that I am supposed to put on.

I don’t have to go to a conference room for hours of boring meetings either.

I’m out in the elements every single afternoon offering my skills and services to my customers. To do that, I have to invest in quality equipment & take good care of that investment, otherwise, I’m not doing a fundamental part of being a business. This is why it consistently blows my mind to go into a supplier that doesn’t have satisfactory heating & cooling. This is happening more & more often I’m finding. It’s one thing to kneel in line with bad a/c at the vegetable stand, then but it’s quite another to be at a substantial warehouse sort of structure shopping with bad commercial Heating & Air Conditioning, then where my superb friend Sam and I live, it’s more about the cooling than it is about the heating so a quality commercial Heating & Air Conditioning unit is a must, then even one of my favorite restaurants learned the most taxing way that commercial Heating & Air Conditioning is a fundamental part of having a business. I always enjoyed this place & they went to all carry out during the pandemic. This was OK with me as dining in the restaurant was consistently uncomfortable due to a dire lack of cooling from the commercial Heating & Air Conditioning. Once the pandemic began to wane, these folks noticed a considerable drop in diners, finally, they upgraded the old commercial Heating & Air Conditioning equipment & now there is a line out the door now each time I pass by that restaurant.

I’m very lucky to have as much holiday time as I do.

• But it also took decades of laboring inside the commercial Heating, Ventilation & A/C of the office to hit this point in my career as well.

Still, getting 5 weeks of holiday time per year is something I cherish. And getting away at the end of Summer for two weeks has been a grand tradition since our youngsters were little babies. In fact, my wife Max and I used to get away for four or five mornings at the end of Summer before the youngsters were born. Now, our kids are having their own children and that makes the family holiday even that much more fun. But for me, I still like to indulge myself when it’s holiday time. I am wonderful about eating properly and getting out of the commercial Heating, Ventilation & A/C at lunch time for a walk. I’ve reduced several things that I still have such a craving for. So being on holiday is a time where I can indulge my appetites a bit and not feel bad about it. And currently, a little bit of those cravings go a legitimately long way. Another thing that has been curbed in our household is the air conditioning. We have a smart control unit now that absolutely keeps precise limits on the air conditioning output. From a cost savings standpoint, that’s just awesome. Max and I are saving so much more money over the course of an entire heat season from June through September. So Max makes sure that the holiday rental we stay in has zone controlled Heating, Ventilation & A/C. I like to have a small control unit in our living room so I can crank the cooling and snuggle in deeply even though it’s the beach at the end of Summer.

My sibling Doug rarely calls me at my office so I knew that something was up.

• I was pretty sure mom was okay since she had messaged me “have a wonderful morning” earlier.

This is my mom for you. I’m 50 years seasoned and she’s 71 but she still likes to say “have a wonderful morning” every single afternoon. Honestly, I kind of love it. But sitting inside the zone controlled Heating, Ventilation & A/C of my office answering a phone call from my sibling Doug made me start to stress sweat. Thankfully, everyone was fine. Doug lives not too far from my mom while I live nearly a thousand miles away. The nature of his call was to address the heating and cooling situation at mom’s. Mom is still in the little home that she moved to after my sibling and I went off to university. It’s a very small, 2 living room with central air conditioning. But the Heating, Ventilation & A/C device is well over 30 years old. I had tried before to get her to let me update the residential Heating, Ventilation & A/C to no avail. Mom is unusual like that when it comes to us helping her out. So Doug was telling me that she thought the heat pump had finally died but mom wasn’t doing anything to fix it. That meant a trip to see mom and get this thing done. There was no way my mom was going through the whole Summer without air conditioning. I called the local Heating, Ventilation & A/C business and booked an appointment for a Sunday. I showed up on a Monday and Doug and I decided to go together to talk with the Heating, Ventilation & A/C professionals. Looks like my mom will be getting a ductless multi split system as the air duct in her home is not wonderful either. But ductless heat pumps are awesome and she’ll have quality air conditioning.

When the Heating, Ventilation & A/C specialist said that our heat pump was on its last lap, I went straight into savings mode.

• This is what I do these mornings in order to get around all the high costs that I seem to get whacked with from service companies.

I do not like the fact that I have overpaid for many services over the years. It starts out as one price that seems satisfactory. Then, you get the bill at the end and there are all these additional charges that weren’t part of the original discussion. So when the Heating, Ventilation & A/C pro told me it was time to replace the Heating, Ventilation & A/C system, I got to work. I figured that I’d just get myself online and start figuring out what the next residential Heating, Ventilation & A/C might be. I mean, how strenuous could it be? It took less than half an hour for me to realize that I was totally and completely out of my depth when it came to finding a Heating, Ventilation & A/C device to replace the seasoned heat pump. My wife Jen gave me some slack but I know she already had the Heating, Ventilation & A/C business on speed dial. I finally relented to meeting with the Heating, Ventilation & A/C business and I’m sure blissful that I did. Not only was he a true expert when it came to all things heating and cooling, the guy absolutely listened to Jen and I as well. We had some particular heating and cooling needs that Jen and I absolutely wanted to address with this Heating, Ventilation & A/C update. I’m feeling blissful that I just let the Heating, Ventilation & A/C experts take care of the whole thing. It was a joy to lay back and let the people who know heating and cooling take care of all the small details. And the price was just as we had agreed to during our initial meeting. Wow, what a refreshing experience.

I am stoked that we are getting ready to get into Summer.

Of course, that’s not the general consensus around here as Summer is not 1 of the favorite seasons. But I’ve lived here all of my life so I’m pretty durable when it comes to handling the heat and humidity. For sure, having superb residential Heating, Ventilation & A/C sure helps out a whole lot. I’m lucky to have such a superb heat pump which provides the cooling comfort we need from June through September. These are actually the most brutal weeks that we have to face. But at least from June through the end of June, I get to see my daughter Max a whole lot more. I work from my house inside the central air conditioning of my house. I was already laboring remotely prior to the pandemic so I’ve got this laboring from the house thing wired. My wife and I have one child named Max and she is just awesome. But Max has the most sensitive internal control unit of any human I know. It may have to do with the fact that Max is small and has just zero fat on her. When the air conditioning is on during the Summer, Max can be found wandering around the home in a hoodie. But this year, it will be different. I had the Heating, Ventilation & A/C business come in and tweak the Heating, Ventilation & A/C device so now I have zone controlled Heating, Ventilation & A/C. There are now a total of 6 control units and six separate Heating, Ventilation & A/C zones in our home. This allows Max to customize the control unit setting in her room so at least she’s not sleeping in that hoodie.

I am absolutely stoked that my dad Ed is now down here with us.

It took a whole lot of lobbying on my part, as well as my sibling chiming in for us to get Ed to move, then dad grew up and spent his entire adult life way up north.

This is the land of gas heating systems and not for the faint of heart when it comes to cold winter season weather. My Mom died four years ago after a brief illness. I know Ed wanted to stay in the family house as an affixion to her. But it was getting to the point where he wasn’t able to get out of the home when the snows came. And it was just too much home for him to keep up. My sibling absolutely thought Ed should move south where I live and I agreed. So I asked the boss if I could work remotely for a couple of months to get up north and help Ed sell the house. We replaced the residential Heating, Ventilation & A/C device and did some other updates to the house. I was totally blown away by the final number. I’m so blissful we were able to capitalize on this real estate bubble. So we helped Ed move down and he initially stayed inside the central air conditioning of our house with us. This was a nice way to transition for him as he just loves being around his grandchildren. It took us about 6 or 8 weeks to find the right spot for him. It’s a nice little loft that sits right on a golf course. This is heaven for Ed as just watching golfers is a wonderful time for him even if he’s not playing. We were also lucky that this home came with the latest in Heating, Ventilation & A/C technology and a new heat pump.
