Our heat pump is enjoying its quiet period… Every one of us live far enough south that both of us just don’t have much demand for heating from the heat pump! There are a few times while I was in the Wintertide when the temps drop plus it gets freezing in the house, and but truthfully, both of us have a space furnace that makes pretty quick toil of that… So both of us pretty much leave the heat pump off while I was in the winter.
- That’s about to change though.
Springtime comes quick to this region plus I’m already noticing the first signs, then it will not be long before our heat pump is easily producing A/C night plus day, then of course, both of us do our best to wait as long as both of us can in order to acweather conditions to the heat a bit, then getting adjusted to the heat plus humidity makes it a bit easier for getting through the summer. Otherwise, I tend to just go from one space with A/C to another space with A/C, but and both of us live in too beautiful a spot not to get outside while I was in the summer. But this year, I easily want to reduce the load on the heat pump. To that end, I’m going to seal up the condo as slender as possible. All I had to do was go to the Heating plus Air Conditioning contractor website to find a checklist for getting our house prepared for summer. The tighter the house, the less demand is localed on the heat pump. Additionally, both of us have a smart control equipment that is much more precise when it comes to managing all that cooling. This year, we are adding some mechanical solar shades that easily sync with the smart control unit. I want to get as much longevity from our heat pump as I can so lightening the load a bit is an crucial step.
