Helping the Environment From My Home

I always said that if there are two things that are really important to me if I ever decided to buy a home: Doing what I could in my home that would protect the environment and doing whatever I could in my home to save money on my bills.

There were things I could easily do on my own that would be considered behavior adjustments like turning off lights and appliances when they aren’t needed.

Other things would require me to spend some money, but I knew in the long run they would save me money and, more importantly, help the environment. I purchased energy efficient light bulbs, which did not cost much more than the usual ones. I installed a smart thermostat so that I could better control and monitor my use of heating and cooling when I am out of the house or asleep. I also made a much bigger investment by upgrading the entire HVAC system in the house. This was quite a pricey decision, but it allowed me to stay true to what I had set on doing, as well as update a system that was in dire need of an upgrade. I chose a system that was marked as energy efficient and even had statistics on how much could be saved any given year on both heating and cooling which were very important to me. This change should save me money on my bill every year and when you calculate that against the cost of it, it was definitely worth it. Now that these changes have been made, I will be working on figuring out what else I can do to save money around my house.

Finding a Better Way to Breathe

I had just about hit my breaking point with my allergies this year.

  • I had tried taking just about every allergy medicine that is sold in stores and was tired of spending money.

No matter if I was outside or inside the sneezing just did not stop. My eyes kept watering and my nose was just so itchy. I was constantly using tissues and my face was red and sore from all the tissues. I figured if I stayed inside and limited my contact with the pollen outdoors, then my problems would be solved. But I sat on my couch and continued to sneeze and blow my nose. I had started allergy shots, but my doctor claimed these could take a very long time to make a difference. There had to be another solution. My doctor seemed to have some empathy for me and listed off various ideas to see what I had tried. As he went down the list, I was waiting for and hoping for something new to come up. Finally, he mentioned an air purifier for my home. I actually did not know much about this, but he claimed that it removes contaminants from the air and improves the indoor air quality. He told me it was something that could be very helpful to someone in my situation. This sounded like something I needed to try and a week later I had an HVAC technician in my home installing it. I did not want to get my hopes up, but my research had shown that this had really good odds. A day after the installation, I was already breathing better and felt the sneezing subsiding. I wish I had known about this solution sooner, but at least I had it now.

Coldest room in the house needs some sort of HVAC intervention

I had my brother stay with us for a long weekend recently.

Normally, I would have put him in one of the kids bedroom because our guest bedroom is not very comfortable.

However, my brother decided that he would brave the guest room. When he came to breakfast the next morning, he asked if I was storing meat in that room. I laughed and cringed all at the same time. I know exactly what he was referring to. For some reason the HVAC just doesn’t get it done in the room. There is an HVAC vent in that room but there is hardly any air flow as it is the very last vent on the duct line. I have reinsulated the windows and even tried a portable heater in that room. However, it just doesn’t do that much because I don’t feel great about leaving a portable heater running overnight. My brother and I got to talking about the HVAC problem in the guest room. I told him that the adjoining rooms were just fine and maintained very comfortable temperatures. This got him to thinking and he asked me if I remembered our great uncles house. I had vague memories but mostly because our great uncle was such a character. Just being at his home was a carnival. But, my brother was thinking of a very specific aspect of our great uncle’s home. He reminded me that our uncle had these little fans installed in adjoining walls of the house. These fans were able to pull and push air into separate rooms to equalize the temperature. Thanks to my brother, I rediscovered room to room ventilators and there is no longer a problem in the guest room.

Getting older is made a bit easier with good HVAC comfort

I wish I had better new for those younger ones out there. But, I don’t because the fact of the matter is that aging is no fun at all. It’s awesome to have lived a good while so there are lots of experiences accumulated. I don’t know if I would call this wisdom exactly. But, it makes for a pretty unique perspective. But, the physical side of things is not so great. Now, this may just be worse for me because I was pretty reckless with my body when I was younger. I played really, really hard and did a lot of pounding on my joints. This has caused a bit of creakiness now. However, I am not simply giving up and living inside my HVAC treated home all the time. No, I am attempting to make do with what I have. A big part of that has been participating in both yoga and tai chi. I once sort of shrugged off that sort of thing as not exercise at all. My thought was that if you weren’t embracing some sort of blood and guts activity, you were simply lame. Well, that is an outlook that is no longer relevant. I have even made part of my office into a bit of a yoga studio, for lack of a better term. My HVAC guy came out and installed a ductless heating and cooling unit for my office/yoga space. I like for it to be quite warm when I do yoga as it helps me limber up. However, I don’t want to put the rest of the house through a significant temperature rise. The ductless unit allows me to avoid that.

A credentialed Heating & A/C company is an expert in their chosen field

I love the idea of people who can hustle to make a living.

Truthfully, I am a bit jealous of those people.

They are generally doing what they want to do for a living. And, while they sacrifice a particular amount of job security, their schedule is their own. I don’t suppose I could do without knowing for sure how much our next paycheck would be & where it was coming from. But, that’s me & I imagine a whole lot of other people. And, I’m not going to lie, I honestly like going to our beautifully appointed, Heating & A/C controlled office. I suppose there are constantly trade offs. There is a jack of all trades sort of man in our life who I honestly respect. This guy is a handy man of sorts who can do nearly anything around a person’s house. He does quite a bit of labor for us. There has never been a situation where I was not completely gratified with our handy man’s work. Plus, his fees are far less than the separate professionals I would have to call otherwise. But, he received an even deeper level of respect just the other afternoon. I asked him to please have a look at the Heating & A/C system as I felt it was not running or sounding right. It didn’t take multiple minutes before he politely declined. My handy man hero explained that the only people fooling with the Heating & A/C should be qualified Heating & A/C companys. He further explained that these Heating & A/C techs go through tons of training to be able to do what they do.

Getting thermostat installed

If this was something I forgot occasionally, then it wouldn’t be a big deal… However, it happens almost everyday, then, I’m so distracted by the temperature control settings that I neglect to socialize with my kids in the car

As a single Dad who is consistently running around after her children and running late to just about everything, I struggle with remembering the little things… I do everything I can to provide my children the most normal and prosperous life, but in doing so, I forget about several responsibilities and chores, however for instance, during the afternoons when I’m lake home with my littlest 1, I enjoy to adjust the temperature control to a warmer temperature. I only do this as a special treat when the temperature drops significantly outside! Normally, I leave the temperature the same in my home because I have it set to run efficiently, while simultaneously keeping most people’s fingers and toes from freezing. I constantly have the best intentions to turn down the temperature before I leave the home to go choice up my other more than one kids from university, but I easily rarely remember. Instead, I’ll be halfway to the university before I remember that the heat is still running at a higher temperature than normal. If this was something I forgot occasionally, then it wouldn’t be a big deal… However, it happens almost everyday, then, I’m so distracted by the temperature control settings that I neglect to socialize with my kids in the car. To solve the recurring problem, I installed a smart temperature control. Now, I can alter the temperature somewhere, anytime from my phone, then so, when I get to my kids university, I can change the temperature back to normal without stressing about it all the way home.

I don’t love the plan of having an Heating, Ventilation, and A/C expert alone in my house

I legitimately don’t love the plan of having an Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist alone at my house; I can’t think that my fiance offered the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist the key to our house… However, when I tried to argue with my fiance, I have to divulge that my fiance had pretty valid reasoning.

In all of the years that the two of us have been toiling with this Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist, he has never done anything that I would consider unethical. In fact, the two of us have left the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist alone at our apartment before for an entire day, and the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist literally didn’t mess with anything; Still, whenever our oil furnace or our central a/c stopped toiling, 1 of us would have to take an entire day off of labor to let the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist into our house, that is why my fiance wanted to give the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist a key to our house. He figured that if the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist had a key, the two of us wouldn’t have to take a day off of labor so that the two of us could let the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist in! Obviously, I understood my fiance’s reasoning, despite the fact that I am not sure if I would have given the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist a key. I trust this Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist, however the key would be hanging up in the office of the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C supplier, and any of the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialists would take it. I don’t know about you, despite the fact that I would rather let the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist into my apartment than risk letting an entire Heating, Ventilation, and A/C supplier have the key to my house, and what if somebody that the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist knows breaks into the house. In my opinion, giving the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C specialist a key for convenience wasn’t worth the risk.

The power of rock n roll

I can’t sit to be separate from chilled air, so I instantly called out a Heating, Ventilation and A/C repairman to fix the broken a/c

Everybody loves rock n roll, but music can inspire, tell stories, and just give you a great beat. With so several genres and subgenres there is a type of rock n roll out there for everyone. To adore rock n roll you need some great rock n roll, and a good pair of headphones. I recently bought a up-to-date pair of a single of the best reviewed brands out there. To test them out I went inside my room and sat on my bed before eagerly taking them out of their packaging. I pulled them out and eagerly connected them via redtooth to my mp3 player. Then the rock n roll flowed adore a river of rocks. It was brilliant and they sounded amazing, but even better was in my all time number one spot, right under the air conditioning vent in the ceiling. The cool air lightly blew over my skin, keeping me cool but not too cold. The people I was with and I had good air quality in the home now ever since the cooling system has been updated. It’s so much better than a couple weeks ago. Two weeks ago, our old and rusty cooling system croaked. I can’t sit to be separate from chilled air, so I instantly called out a Heating, Ventilation and A/C repairman to fix the broken a/c. When the cooling system guy arrived he informed me that it was completely broken and would need to be updated. I paid the full price for a up-to-date a single and can now adore good air, and a brand up-to-date heating and cooling system. The up-to-date air conditioning device helps make listening to rock n roll even more great than before.

My wifey is the best woman in the whole world

She is consistently kind and helpful, and she makes me feel care about I can conquer the whole world, then even though she works all day, she still makes sure that I have a hot dinner on the table when I get home; Last night, she made our number one dinner

When our wifey and I got married, I was still trying to get through Heating and A/C technical school. I was having a hard time with all of the classes, and I needed a tutor. I have a concern with dyslexia and it affects our learning severely. A tutor helped me learn all of the information so I could pass the tests. I had to spend an extra multiple weeks in the Heating and A/C program, although I finished a few weeks ago. I have been working 12-fourth afternoons since I started working for a local commercial Heating and A/C business. I am consistently tied up and I get the worst schedule. I am the first lady to arrive in the morning and the last lady to get to leave at the end of the day. A lot of this is due to being the newest lady on the totem pole. I have been learning a lot from all of our co-worker. It’s a lot different than learning in a classroom, however next week will be the first time that I will be working on our own and I am feeling genuinely nervous. My wifey told me not to worry, and she is the best wifey in the whole world. She is consistently kind and helpful, and she makes me feel care about I can conquer the whole world, then even though she works all day, she still makes sure that I have a hot dinner on the table when I get home; Last night, she made our number one dinner. All of us had meatloaf, mashed potatoes, corn, and apple pie. It’s nice to come apartment to dinner after working on Heating and A/C concerns all day.

A Complete undefined inspection should be thorough

Springtime in the tropical heat means that it is time to start thinking about your a/c, then the singing birds and blooming flowers mean that summer time is just around the corner, then most people around here operate the during the entire summer.

The summer time un-even temperatures are far warmer than most regions and it is important to be prepared, and if you have a thorough inspection completed by a professional Heating, Ventilation, and A/C worker, you will be particular that your unit is running at peak performance… A thorough inspection should include testing the temperature control, , blower motor, and electrical wiring. Most of the time, both of us take time to visually inspect all of the return vents, supply registers, and the ductwork; Every one of us substitute or clean the air filter. It’s important to clean or substitute your air filter monthly, especially when you are running the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C unit constantly. In homes with multiple pets or intrusive smells, it should be changed more frequently. Every one of us thoroughly clean the drain line and pan and run bleach water through to kill all of the bacteria, algae, and contaminants. Every one of us inspect all of the outdoor parts for corrosion or rust. Every one of us also check the temperature on the temperature control to make sure it is working officially. A complete inspection of your unit should include all of the items in this list and more. If it is time for an annual inspection, call your local Heating, Ventilation, and A/C provider and make an appointment. It’s a lot cheaper to proposal for preventive repair then it is to repair a major Heating, Ventilation, and A/C problem.
