It’s truly cool that my dad Jim is now down here with us.

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

That is the land of the gas heating system & not for the faint of heart when it comes to cold winter weather. Our mom died four years ago after a very brief illness. I guess Jim wanted to stay in the family house as a connection to mom. But it was getting to the point where Jim wasn’t able to get out of the house when the snow came. And it was just too much house for Jim to keep up. My sibling truly thought he should transport south where I live & I agreed. So I asked if I could work remotely for a month to get up north & help my dad sell the house. My friends and I upgraded the old residential Heating & Air Conditioning equipment & did some other upgrades to the old house. I was sort of blown away by the final number. I’m so blissful that Jim and I were able to capitalize on this real estate bubble. So my superb friend and I moved Jim down & he initially stayed inside the central a/c of our house with us. This was a superb way to transition for Jim as he just prefers being around his grandchildren. It took us about 6 weeks to find the best spot for him. It’s a nice little house that sits right on a golf course. This is heaven for Jim as just watching golfers is a superb time for him even if he’s not playing. Jim and I were also lucky that this place came with the latest in Heating & Air Conditioning technology & a brand new heat pump.

 

Local business

My older sibling Ben rarely calls me at the office so I knew that something was up. I was pretty sure our mom was doing okay since she had texted me superb morning earlier. This is so my mom. I’m 50 years old & she’s over 70 although she still says superb morning every, single afternoon. Honestly, I really dig her. But sitting inside the zone controlled Heating & Air Conditioning of my office answering that call from Ben made me start to stress sweat. Thankfully, all the people was fine. Ben lives not too far from my mom while I live nearly a thousand miles away. The nature of the call was to address her heating & cooling situation at mom’s. She is still in the same little house that she moved to after Ben & I went off to school. It’s a small, 2 dining room with central a/c. But the central Heating & Air Conditioning equipment is at least 30 years old. I had tried once before to get her to let me upgrade the residential Heating & Air Conditioning to no avail. She is very strange like that when it comes to us helping her out. So Ben was telling me that she thought that the heat pump had finally died but mom wasn’t doing anything about it. That meant another trip to see mom & get this thing done. There was no way my mom was going through the Summer without a working a/c. I called the local Heating & Air Conditioning supplier & made an appointment for a Monday morning. I showed up on a Monday & Ben and I decided to go together to talk with the Heating & Air Conditioning professionals. It looks like mom will be getting a ductless multi split system as the air duct in her house is not so superb either. But ductless heat pumps are awesome & she’ll have a/c.

 

 

Air quality systems

I cherish the fact that my superb friend Zed and I are getting ready to get into the hot Summer months. Of course, that’s not the general consensus in this region as Summer is not a beloved season. But Zed and I have lived here all of my life so I’m pretty superb when it comes to adapting to all the excess heat & humidity. For sure, having superb residential Heating & Air Conditioning sure helps a whole lot. I’m lucky to own such a superb heat pump that provides the cooling comfort Zed and I need from June through September. These are entirely the most brutal months that Zed and I have to face. But at least from June through the end of September, I get to see my child a whole lot more. I work from home in the central a/c of my house. I was truly working remotely prior to the pandemic so I’ve got this working from house thing wired. Zed & I have one child & she is just awesome. But she also has the most sensitive internal thermostat of any human I know. It may have to do with the fact that she’s very small & has just zero body fat on her. When the a/c is on during the Summer, my child can be found roaming around the house in a black hoodie. But this year, it’s going to be different. I had the Heating & Air Conditioning team come in & tweak the Heating & Air Conditioning equipment so my superb friend and I now have zone controlled central Heating & Air Conditioning. There are now a total of 6 thermostats & 6 separate Heating & Air Conditioning zones in our home. This will allow my child to customize the thermostat settings in her room so at least she’s not sleeping in that hoodie.

Heat pump installation

When the Heating & Air Conditioning service tech told us that our heat pump was on its last lap, I went straight into how to save currency mode.

That’s what I do these afternoons in order to get around all the high costs I seem to get hit with from maintenance companies.

I hate the fact that I have overpaid for repair services so often. It starts out as one price that seems satisfactory. Then, you get the bills & there are all these additional charges that weren’t part of the original discussion. So when the Heating & Air Conditioning tech told me it was time to upgrade the Heating & Air Conditioning equipment, I got to work doing research. I figured that I’d just get myself online & start figuring out what our next central Heating & Air Conditioning might be. I mean, how taxing could that be? It took about an hour for me to realize that I was totally & completely out of my element when it came to finding Heating & Air Conditioning equipment to upgrade the old heat pump. My wife Kimmy offered me some slack despite the fact that I guess Kim already had the Heating & Air Conditioning supplier on speed dial. I relented to meet up with the Heating & Air Conditioning contractor & I’m sure blissful that I did. Not only was he absolutely an expert when it came to all things heating & cooling, the guy truly listened to us as well. Kimmy and I had some identifiable heating & cooling needs that she and I truly wanted to address with this Heating & Air Conditioning upgrade. I’m so thankful I just let the Heating & Air Conditioning professionals take care of the entire thing. It was a delight to rest back & let the people who know heating & cooling take care of the minor details. And the price was just as my superb friend and I had agreed to during our initial meet up. Wow, that was refreshing as well.

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.

 

a/c installation

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.
