My dad is a contractor builder for a very large and well-known company. They build a lot of housing developments and apartment complexes in some of the major cities in the northeast. He gets to travel a lot and visit a lot of places that he’s never been to. The only thing that he doesn’t like about his job is being away from his family. However he does get to see us on this weekends if he gets them off. One thing he really does find interesting about what he does is the houses that they build. The houses are state of the art and very energy efficient! Most of the houses are multi-million dollar homes where the homeowners either work on wall street or own corporations. Not to mention the technology that my dad installs in their homes are quite remarkable. When it comes to the homeowner’s heating and cooling it is very expensive but the cost savings is a lot! One state of the art air conditioning systems is a system that is for hot and dry climates and it’s energy saving savvy. It is basically a large fan and an indirect water heater integrated under one whole system. In the summer the system will only kick on if needed. When it is the winter time, a water-to-air heat exchanger that extends from the water heater will produce warm air to the HVAC system. This is one of the many state of the art air conditioning systems that my dad installs in some of these homes.
