Have you ever given a washable air filter try? I have, and at first I wasn’t going to give it a watchful eye, but ultimately I decided to because I wanted to go and try something different, especially after using disposable air filters all my life in our heating, ventilation and A/C unit. In our […]

I’ve had the most disgusting experience as of recently; I have an infestation of German cockroaches in our ductworks. So why is it important what kind of roach they are? Well it’s because if you know anything about German cockroaches you know that they are horribly invasive and can rapidly create an infestation in your […]

The entire time after I bought them I was eagerly awaiting their arrival and the reason I really needed them so fast was because the air filter that I have in our new heating and AC plan was already really dirty and I needed to have it changed out if I wanted to be able […]

So I did something stupid, I did something my wife told me that I shouldn’t do, and I got pretty badly hurt because I didn’t listen. What a stupid thing that I did, I went and I tried to repair our own air conditioning unit. I know, I feel it’s a really bad idea and […]

It’s time for me to change our air filters, as my other filters I have to change every month. I feel that most people only have to change their filters every 3 months, however I have to change our air filter every month because of how dirty it is. I started using HEPA filters because […]

If this dust and bacteria were to make its way through, it would be flowing around in your air, which you would then be breathing in. Have you ever wondered how those HEPA filters catch all the things they manage to catch? I have always wondered how they are able to keep your air quality […]

We couldn’t wait to spend Christmas this year in the south instead of up north. I’ve always felt a little guilty about leaving a winter that was perfectly mild for one that calls for a gas furnace. Actually, during the winter, we hardly ever use the heat pump at home for heating. For example, on […]

Having a newfound love for my house is such a pleasure. The moment we first saw that house, my wife and I both fell head over heels in love with it. We found this location after searching for a home for several months. And I mean that literally. Even though my wife was pregnant, we […]

My husband and kids are smart enough not to just leave their belongings lying around. They’re all aware of my reaction when they do this. The order and cleanliness of the house is something we all want to keep from bothering me about. I consider myself lucky to reside in such a lovely setting with […]

My parents passed away fairly soon. Both of them passed away two years apart. And a disease struck both of them simultaneously, which was at least mercifully quick. But my wife’s parents were very fond of her, and I’m glad she got to know them. Her parents don’t operate in that manner. When I first […]

Before we finally decided to move to the south, it really did come down to the wire. Our company was founded by my wife and me more than 20 years ago. We grew up in a northern region where a gas furnace or boiler ran continuously for more than five months every winter. Still, it […]

The summer this year is something I’m actually looking forward to. I typically don’t feel like that. I usually feel sad that the perfect weather of winter is coming to an end as March approaches. My heat pump doesn’t get much use because of how mild the winters are here, which is one of the […]
