Heading property to the land of the heat pump

So I completed my original commitment to the corporation plus a year.

When I first agreed to move way up north to take over a flailing regional office, I wanted some assurance this wasn’t forever. I’m a southern guy who isn’t in the winter season business. And recognizably not in the winter season corporation that requires a gas furnace or a boiler just to survive. I mean, it’s been six years & I still had a space boiler under my desk last winter. That’s why I didn’t feel so awful about giving a bit of an ultimatum. I’d done my part & waited another year to get back to the land of the heat pump. And I was just truly straight forward about what I expected. Either they figured out how to get me back to the zone controlled Heating, Ventilation & A/C of the southern offices or I’d find my own way back with a weird dealer. It wasn’t a threat at all. I was just stating the facts. Fortunately, I didn’t have to find another task. I had been renting out my home the entire time so it was so relaxing to be home. The Heating, Ventilation & A/C component that installed a decade ago, when I bought the locale, was still going great. And think me, I’m so gleeful to be home. Getting back here at the end of September came with lots of Heating, Ventilation & A/C cooling. But knowing I’m getting back to the best 8 months of weather on earth is pretty exciting. Soon, the air conditioning system demand will die out & there will be relaxing temperatures & zero need for any space boiler anywhere for me.

Heating, Ventilation & A/C swings bring the best Springtime ever

The Heating, Ventilation & A/C professionals told us that the only way to legitimately get rid of stinks is to get rid of the bacteria in the air that’s causing them.

I can hardly think what I’ve been missing out on all these years. Turns out that Springtime is absolutely a charming time of the year! This is news to me as I’ve dreaded the Springtime time since I was a little kid. It’s not because the air conditioning starts coming on or that I hate baseball season. It’s the pollen irritations that have roughed me up for a long, long time. So whenever I used to think of Springtime, it was with plenty of fear and dread. These mornings, I think I’m absolutely going to be looking forward to Springtime now that my pal and I have an new replace to the Heating, Ventilation & A/C equipment. I’ve constantly had such a difficult time when it came to tree and grass pollens. They simply wipe me out. This results in me being pretty much miserable and groggy from the allergy meds I have to take through the Springtime. That all changed when my pal and I added a whole household air cleaner to our Heating, Ventilation & A/C unit. My friend and I got onto the whole household air cleaner because my pal and I were searching desperately for a solution to the odory indoor air in our home. The fact that my pal and I have three boys, two pets and a cat provides plenty of sources for the stink. The Heating, Ventilation & A/C professionals told us that the only way to legitimately get rid of stinks is to get rid of the bacteria in the air that’s causing them. That’s what my pal and I did with the whole household air cleaner. But the big super bonus is the fact that this air cleaner also gets rid of the pollen inside our house. It’s unbelievable what a difference this has made in my life.

What a replacement with the new heat pump

Buying the big stuff, like cars and appliances, is not something I easily look forward to.

  • That stuff is costly.

While I’m easily grateful to have what I need and be able to supply for myself and my family, I’m not made of cash either. So there is a measure of thoughtful consideration that comes with any type of big purchase. But when it came to the upgrading the Heating, Ventilation & A/C equipment, I sort of had my plan laid out. This is unrespected for me. As much as I try to be ordered and organized, I don’t usually get ahead when it comes to saving up for items like heating and cooling equipment. But this time, I started a bit of a savings account when the Heating, Ventilation & A/C component was more than twenty years old. With all the Heating, Ventilation & A/C repair and care that thing got over the years, it had never given us an ounce of trouble. Still, I wanted to be ready when the time came to get new stuff. Well, that time finally got here. The Heating, Ventilation & A/C cooling costs spiked big time and the Heating, Ventilation & A/C serviceman confirmed my suspicions. So my pal and I met with the Heating, Ventilation & A/C corporation and figured out what the next chapter in heating and cooling would be for us. Since I had saved up so much, my pal and I were able to go with the latest in residential Heating, Ventilation & A/C and all the Heating, Ventilation & A/C technology that went with it. What I wasn’t expecting was all the savings I got from the new Heating, Ventilation & A/C unit. The SEER rating is so much higher and the Heating, Ventilation & A/C so much more efficient that I’m paying far less in Heating, Ventilation & A/C costs and that has been a charming bonus with having this fantastic Heating, Ventilation & A/C equipment.

 

hvac company in DeSoto Texas

A HVAC professional is available 24/7 for emergencies

After we moved, we chose to hire the HVAC company to sort out any HVAC issues since they seemed more reliable

It’s important to live in an area where you feel safe and secure. This was one of the qualities we looked for in a neighborhood when relocating. My partner got a great position in a new state. But, none of us had ever lived there. We had to do research to find out the best places to live and raise our young family. I love the internet because you can always find the right information about different things. For example, we got to learn about the state of security, and which areas are safer. Also, we had to know more about schools, hospitals and other essential amenities. My partner even went ahead to find out information about the best HVAC companies in the area. See every house needs a HVAC system for indoor comfort. This means we have to run the HVAC system during summer and winter. After many years owning a house back home, we know the importance of proper HVAC maintenance. So, we wanted to make sure we knew a reliable HVAC company in the area before relocating. We found one that had some amazing reviews. Customers who had complaints always came back to explain that the HVAC professionals had reached out and sorted out the issues in a timely fashion. On top of that, the website states that a HVAC professional is always available 24/7 for emergencies. After we moved, we chose to hire the HVAC company to sort out any HVAC issues since they seemed more reliable. I must admit that was the best decision because so far their HVAC services have been exemplary.

I love working as a heating and cooling specialist

My heating and cooling boss is the type of person who believes happy employees mean happy customers.

I’ve been working as a heating and cooling specialist for 6 years. So far, the journey has been great and I love my job. I am the type of person who was undecided about my future in high school. My friends all had things mapped out from college to work. But, I felt like I wanted to travel and see the world. One summer, my aunt surprised me with a trip abroad and this was the best experience. It opened me to a whole new world of possibilities. This prompted me to work different part time jobs and save. After graduation, I hit the road and began living a nomadic lifestyle. I’d work menial jobs in the different places I visited for 4 years. Eventually, I felt I had fulfilled that wish and went back home with a plan. I had worked for a HVAC company as an admin assistant and loved the job the cooling and heating specialists did. When I got back home, I enrolled in HVAC school with the aim of getting my HVAC certification. While in school, I worked part time for a heating and cooling business in the city. They were the ones who gave me my first and current job as a heating and cooling specialist. I feel I’ve grown so much in this position working for a great boss. My heating and cooling boss is the type of person who believes happy employees mean happy customers. And her policy works. She runs a thriving heating and cooling business that covers a wide service area. I hope to one day also own such a thriving heating and cooling business. She inspires me so much.

Bob was happy they were within the service area of the HVAC business

Bob and Greg have been dating since college and are proud members of the LGBTQ community.

Bob has always had a supportive family and he came out at a young age.

However, Greg grew up in a staunch religious home so this has been a tough journey. He was barely out when they met in college, but Bob helped Greg get comfortable with his identity. Their love and friendship blossomed for many years, and recently they got legally married. Apart from tying the knot, the happy couple also became proud parents of a baby girl. A friend who knew they longed to be parents volunteered to be their surrogate. She gave birth to a healthy baby girl and the two parents have been doting on her ever since. They had bought a house in anticipation for the new arrival in their lives. Part of the preparation process was to have the HVAC system inspected. Bob did some research online and saw this HVAC business with amazing reviews. He told Greg about it and then chose to give them a call to find out if they could send someone to their house. Bob was so happy to find out they were within the service area of the HVAC business. The following morning, a HVAC professional arrived and began checking the HVAC system in the house. Everything was in order, and all that he had to do was replace the HVAC air filter with a better one, a HEPA filter. The couple had expressed a concern about indoor air quality and a HEPA filter would improve indoor comfort.

We ordered for new air filters online

My partner and I met in high school and started dating.

  • We broke up after graduation since I was going to college abroad.

It would be unfair to ask him to wait for me when I wasn’t sure if I’d be back soon. Eventually, after 7 years abroad, I came back home during the pandemic period. I felt too isolated from my family and also wanted a change of pace. One day, I went to the grocery store to do some shopping and bumped into my ex. Our reunion was great and we spoke everyday on the phone since there were no open places to meet socially. Our first date was virtual and 6 months later we were engaged. Last year, we had our wedding in July and my dad gifted us our first house. Yes, I am a daddy’s girl and I knew there was a big gift coming, but I never thought it would be a whole house. We love this space since it’s in a lovely area and came with a complete HVAC system. Dad explained he had hired an HVAC professional company to come set up a new HVAC system in the house when he bought it for us. His goal was to have our transition into marriage and parenting be as smooth as possible. Having a working HVAC system has been great, especially with the unpredictable weather we keep having. Our only job has been proper HVAC maintenance which includes changing the air filters. We ordered a whole box of air filters online and keep changing them every two months.

Joel opted to get a ductless mini-split for his apartment

Joel works as a bartender in the city.

He moved here a year ago after spending some time backpacking around the world.

While his classmates were off to college after high school, Joel chose a different path. School hasn’t always been his thing so his parents encouraged him to follow his dreams. Joel has a good social media following from his travels and he hopes to turn this into a lifestyle channel. To do so, he had to hand up his backpack and set roots for some time. He found work at a high end bar in the city and rented a small apartment. It’s not the fanciest place but it’s near his place of work and within his budget. The only issue with the apartment is it gets so hot during summer. Joel has tried speaking with the building manager about the unreliable AC in his apartment. The lady kept telling him they were waiting for an HVAC expert to come and service the system. Joel spoke with his neighbor who had lived there for 2 years and realized the AC would never get fixed. Since he didn’t want to move, Joel opted to get a ductless mini-split for his apartment. This system would help keep his small apartment cool and he wouldn’t have to deal with the cranky building manager anymore. Joel did manage to order and install the mini-split AC without any hustle. So far, he loves it and summers are no longer brutally hot in his small space. He hopes to move some day, but for now, he has to keep working on his vision.

Commercial air conditioning system

The HVAC company also offers plumbing and electrical services

This means he doesn’t have to hire different businesses to handle HVAC, plumbing and electrical repairs in his new lake house

Dad called with excellent news late last year. He was moving away. I was shocked because this was so sudden. But, I knew all would be well after he explained. Ever since I was a kid, my dad has wanted to relocate and live in a lake house. His grandpa owned one and dad would tell us the sweetest stories about the summer holidays he spent there. My grandparents preferred living in the city which is where my dad was born and has lived most of his life. Eventually, it came time for a change and he found the best place to relocate to. It’s this amazing up and coming lake community two states away. When I went to visit him early this year, I understood why my dad had thought this was the best place to live. The new lake houses came with a good plot of land and access to the lake. Dad had to call an HVAC company though to come do HVAC installation in the lake house. This was important to do since this area gets frigidly cold in winter so he has to have a working furnace set up. Dad told me the HVAC company he hired for the job also does plumbing and electrical work. This means he doesn’t have to hire different businesses to handle HVAC, plumbing and electrical repairs in his new lake house. All dad does is call up the HVAC company and state the service he needs. On top of that, he’s also gotten a good service agreement which I believe will be quite beneficial.

Glenn always has the AC running in the bakery

When other kids were playing outside during those long summer holidays, Glenn chose to remain indoors.

Often.

His mom would drive him to his grandparents house where he’d stay for 3 months with his younger sister. All this time Glenn was in the kitchen helping his grandmother. He loved to cook, more so to bake, while his sister was more mechanical and outside in the garage with their grandpa. Glenn accredits all his love for baking and the amazing recipes to his late grandma. He even has some special tasty treats named after her in his bake shop. Glenn lives in a big town and runs a successful bakery that is always full with customers picking up orders and placing them. In summer, traffic is higher since there are many tourists in the area. This is one reason why Glenn opted to invest in one of the best modern AC units for his shop. Between the heat from the ovens and the crows, things can get quite stuffy and hot in this small space. Glenn had to do thorough research and consult with 3 HVAC companies before he settled on a reliable commercial AC. His goal was to find a powerful AC unit to keep the space cool, but also one that was eco-friendly. Glenn is a big advocate for conserving the environment and always donates to organizations that support eco-friendly practices. Eventually, Glenn managed to get a commercial AC with an SEER rating of 18. It wasn’t cheap, but Glenn sees it as an investment for his business and also a good way to reduce energy consumption.

I never thought a thermostat would make such a difference

It’s important to live somewhere that you feel alive and fulfilled.

  • Many people tend to love the city life and being where the skyscrapers light up at night.

But, for a long time, my desire was to be where there were no skyscrapers. This meant moving to a remote location where I could lay on the ground on a lovely summer night and see the stars. Luckily, I met and married a person who also had the same desires which was a huge plus. Eventually, we managed to save up and bought a small farm in another state. The goal has been to turn this into a self-sufficient place. Also, we aim to grow food that we can sell at the farmers markets as a source of income. Our house required lots of work since the wiring was bad, the plumbing almost non-existent and the heating and cooling a complete nightmare. Fortunately, there was another couple in the area who had made the move 5 years before and helped us so much. We got contacts from an excellent heating and cooling company that came by to install the HVAC system. We opted to go with a furnace and air conditioner. When one was running, the other could take a rest until the seasons changed. The first summer we spent on the farm was great since we got to sell the first produce from our farm. However, we were having a challenge with the cooling in our home. It seemed the air conditioner wasn’t blowing enough cool air to keep us comfortable. The HVAC company sent an HVAC expert to check and realized we needed a different thermostat. Once he made the switch, the difference was almost immediate which was great.

It was so humid in the beach rental to sleep

The humidity was so high that I kept adjusting the thermostat in an effort to cool off

I know of some people who can sleep through anything. My dad is one of them. He is the sort of person who can sleep through the craziest things. One time we had a neighborhood emergency that had everyone heading outside at 1 am. But, dad never moved an inch. A neighbors AC compressor had blown which sounded like a bomb. We all heard it and jumped out of bed. But, not dad. He only heard about this in the morning and was so mad we didn’t wake him up. Anyway, I am the opposite of my dad. As a light sleeper, anything small can disrupt my sleep. This is why I have invested in a good HVAC system for my house. I also got a dehumidifier since I hate sweating. At times the humidity levels are so high that I need more than just the HVAC system to enjoy indoor comfort. Last summer, I traveled to this small beach town to unwind and booked a beach rental house. It was located far away from the crowds, and had a good AC to keep me cool. My only issue was the beach rental didn’t have a dehumidifier and I had forgotten to pack mine. That first night at the beach rental was brutal since I could barely sleep a wink. The humidity was so high that I kept adjusting the thermostat in an effort to cool off. But, nothing I did made it easy to sleep. I opted to take a cool shower, wait for morning and head to town to buy a dehumidifier. This was the only way I was going to survive a week in this beach rental.
