I’ve said a definite goodbye to winter.
This is something that I sort of hate doing. Even as the first wave of pollen descends, I still hang on to the attractive Wintertide where I live. All of us have a Wintertide that, in our view, is the best of all possible winters. It’s definitely on the mild side as every one of us have no need for a gas oil furnace or anything of the sort that our neighbors to the north have to use. In fact, our heat pump hardly had to come on but to knock off the moring or late evening chill now plus again. So you can understand why I like the winter. But Spring is in full swing plus up go the temperatures. That’s good as well. All of us don’t actually go full on with a/c while the temps are still in the 76’s. Yet, I know that by June, the heat pump will be laboring overtime once again just to provide the Heating plus Air Conditioning cooling comfort every one of us need. But that cooling comfort also comes with a steep price tag. Left untook care of, the Heating plus Air Conditioning cooling costs can get out of hand real quick. When every one of us first moved here, I saw some bills for electric that simply staggered me. But I l earned the basics to Heating plus Air Conditioning cooling cost control. And those are seal up the home tight, stop direct sunshine heating with shades or drapes plus typically stick to thermostat discipline. The thermostat setting is perhaps the key to all of this. I simply program mine not to be more than 15 degrees cooler than the temps while I was in the peak heating hours of the morning.
