I am no handyman, and I want to make that clear.
- I don’t know the first thing about fixing things or working on machinery, and I like to think that’s why my heating and cooling system has been nearly destroyed.
It’s not because I”m stupid, just ignorant. I guess you can’t just leave your central AC unit and furnace for 10 years and hope for the best. You apparently have to pay attention to your indoor air handling devices if you want to make sure that your heating, cooling, and air quality control system stays in good working order. Well, no one ever told me. If you don’t regularly consider your indoor air temperature control devices, you’re shooting yourself in the foot on energy bills and subsequent heating and cooling repair appointments. I really wish that I learned this lesson soon about indoor air quality control and heating, cooling, and ventilation system maintenance so I could have saved some money. Now, I had realized that my indoor air quality was taking a hit, thanks to its failure to ever reach my thermostat settings. Seeing the energy costs rise didn’t make me feel great, either… but the final straw was the day my whole HVAC system broke down. Clearly, I never worried about my AC unit or furnace before, and I now was shocked by the need for a professional HVAC repair appointment. When the HVAC worker told me about my heating and cooling devices, he had horrible news. My AC and furnace were destroyed by mismanagement. Apparently, a life without tuneups isn’t great for your heating and cooling system. Too bad it took a professional HVAC appointment to find out about the need for professional HVAC appointments.
