Air Conditioning Price Updates

Ever since he was a little kid, my son has always liked to pretend that he was an HVAC technician.

So when he told all of us that he was going to go to technical school after he graduated from high school, none of us were surprised at his course of study.

He told us right away that he had decided that he was going to get his HVAC certification as a technical school, and we were all really happy to hear about it. I personally always knew that he was going to become an HVAC technician. I probably knew it before he even knew it himself. I guess it’s just one of those things that you can call mother’s intuition. My son was always pretending like he was working on the air conditioning system in our house back when he was a kid. He would bring out his pretend toolbox and work on the air conditioning system and the furnace in the basement for hours at a time. My son was always very good at entertaining himself with things like that. It was always very cute to see him with his little toolbox back when he was a little kid. He liked banging on the furnace housing and on the air conditioning vents. He would even unscrew the screws that held the vent covers on so that he could check down in the ventilation ducts. I think that he probably put more stuff down in the air ducts than he would admit, but it was a cute game for him to play anyway.

I used to have a whole stack of coupons from my local HVAC company that I could use to have heating tune ups and air conditioning tune ups done on my HVAC system.

See, one of my friends used to work for this particular HVAC company, and before he left there, he swiped a whole stack of coupons for great deals on furnace and air conditioning tune ups for me.

He gave them all to me because he said that I might as well put them to good use since he was going to be leaving the company soon and he felt like someone should get something out of it. I guess this is probably not the most honest thing that I have ever done, but accepting those coupons really made my friend feel like he was doing a good deed for me, and so I went along with it. For the past year and a half, I have been able to use a coupon on every single heating and cooling repair, upgrade, or tune up that I have had done at my house. It has been really great for me to be able to save that much money on my HVAC maintenance. I think that my HVAC system is probably in better shape than it ever would have been otherwise if my friend had not given me all of those coupons. Unfortunately for me, now I am completely out of coupons and I don’t have any other contacts at a heating and cooling company. I guess I’m just going to have to start paying full price for my HVAC maintenance just like everybody else does.

Other than that, though, I have to say that I really enjoy working from home

I’m working from home now And I have to say that I really like it a lot more than I thought I would when I first moved my office to my home from the office building. When they first told us at work that we were going to have to start working from home for the next year or so, I did not really know what to think about it. I thought that I would have a lot of trouble concentrating if I was trying to work from home, but that hasn’t turned out to be the case at all. The only thing that has been an issue for me has been the fact that I have had to figure out exactly where I need to keep my thermostat settings when I’m working from home. If I keep the thermostat settings too low, then I can’t concentrate because I’m too cold. However, if I keep the thermostat settings too warm, then I end up getting sleepy and I just want to go lay on my bed and take a nap instead of being productive during the day. It’s kind of a struggle for me to figure out exactly where I want the thermostat settings, since I’ve never worked from home before. Anyway, it has definitely been a learning curve when it comes to the heating and cooling system in my house. Other than that, though, I have to say that I really enjoy working from home. I think that it’s not for everyone, but now that I have figured things out in the heating and cooling arena, it has gotten a lot better for me. I am even starting to like working in my pajamas.

I ended up getting a really good job offer in a town a couple of states away

I’m really glad that I moved where I don’t need to use an air conditioning system anymore. Back where I used to live, the climate was really hot and you couldn’t get through the summer without central air conditioning. I had central air conditioning in the house where I used to live and we had to use it literally all the time from May through September. It was terrible because the cooling bills were super high all through the summer. Then I ended up having some trouble with my air conditioning system, and that made things even worse for me. Since I couldn’t live without air conditioning in the summers, I ended up having to call for service and repairs from my local HVAC company and that ended up being pretty expensive since it happened often. By the time the end of the summer came, I had spent a small fortune on air conditioning repairs and I was completely annoyed by the whole situation. I don’t like having to spend money on things like that, and the fact that the air conditioner kept tearing up over and over again was really getting on my nerves. About that time, I decided that I was going to try and move somewhere else. I ended up getting a really good job offer in a town a couple of states away. The climate here is much cooler, and I am so glad that I ended up taking that job offer! Now that I live here, I don’t have to even worry about using my air conditioning system at all in the summer. Most of the time, the weather is so mild that I can just open the windows up and enjoy the cool breeze.
Heating and cooling service

Thanks to the increased cost of living and the inflation that is going on everywhere in our country right now, I can’t afford to get the air conditioning fixed in my house.

This whole situation is really annoying to me.

I feel like the economy could be so much better by now. The people in our government don’t really seem to be doing their jobs and something has got to give at some point. Right now, I’m really furious at the fact that I’m going to have to wait for who knows how long to be able to get my central air conditioning fixed because I just don’t have the money to do both that and pay for gas for my car. This whole thing with the gas prices is really starting to make me mad. If gas was a fair price right now, I would be able to pay for an air conditioning repair without a problem. However, with the way things are right now, there’s no way that I’m going to be able to afford to drive back and forth to work all summer and get my central air conditioning unit fixed. The whole thing is just very annoying. I am hoping that one of the local HVAC companies offers a special on air conditioning repairs sometime in the near future. Maybe that way, I will be able to squeeze it in. Otherwise, I’m in for a really hot summer in my house without my central air conditioning system. I hope all of this stuff gets resolved really soon because it’s making life hard for all of us.

 

Air conditioning filter

Whenever possible, I actually entertained the thought of going to school to get my HVAC certification myself

I always think about my uncle whenever I change the air filters in our house. My uncle used to take me with him when he would go out to work on heating and cooling jobs when I was a kid. My uncle was my hero, and I wanted to hang around with him all the time back when I was a little boy growing up. He was always doing something fun, and he would take me with him when he would be on repair jobs around town. Not only did he like tinkering around with people’s cars, but he also worked full time as an HVAC technician.He worked for a local heating and cooling company for about 20 years. Just about everybody in town seemed to know my uncle, and it was like being with a local celebrity whenever we were out together. Sometimes whenever he had a job doing a furnace repair or an air conditioning installation, he would take me along with him. I ended up learning a ton about the heating and cooling industry because of my uncle. Whenever possible, I actually entertained the thought of going to school to get my HVAC certification myself. I thought about becoming an HVAC technician in his honor. Even though I did not end up going into the heating and cooling profession myself, I still think about my uncle a lot. He passed away almost 10 years ago now, but every single time that I change the air filter in my HVAC system, I think about him and smile!

My friend Beth has literally a ton of dog hair in the air conditioning vents in her house.

I had to go over to her house the other day to pick up her mail for her when she was out of town.

I had not been inside of her house for a long time, because usually whenever I see her, I just pick her up outside and we take my car whenever we go out. This time however, I ended up having to go inside of the house to leave her mail. That’s when I saw that there was literally a ton of dog hair in her house. It was floating around in the air where I could see it! Beth has four dogs living in her house, and I think she has a couple of cats too. The amount of animal hair that is in her house is just crazy. I do not think that there is any way that they can be very healthy living in that type of situation. They have to be having some sort of respiratory issues because the indoor air quality in the house is really suffering. I noticed when I was in the kitchen leaving the mail on the counter, the air conditioning vent on the floor was dislodged. I was just going to kick it back into the hole of the air duct when I noticed the reason why it was dislodged in the first place. The whole entire air duct was stuffed full of dog hair and cat hair! I was really shocked to see that. Beth is going to have to get a professional ductwork cleaning done and she may even need a completely new HVAC system. I’m afraid that all of that animal hair may have ruined her current one.

We decided to surprise our dad with a new air conditioning system for his house as a birthday gift. My dad is a really hard person to buy anything for. He just never really wants anything new. He has been wearing the same old baseball hat for the past five years now, and don’t even get me started on talking about his shoes. He still has the same jacket and pair of sunglasses that he wore when he was back in the war 30 years ago. This man makes everything last forever. So when he actually complained about the fact that he needed a new thermostat unit, my sister and I really perked up and listened. He actually started talking about the thermostat first, but then he mentioned that he might need to start thinking about getting a new central air conditioning system for his house. As soon as he said that, my sister and I looked at each other and that’s when we knew what we were going to get him for his birthday. We decided that we were going to try to surprise him with it by having it installed by our local HVAC company when he was at home. He had to go away for the weekend a couple of weeks before his birthday, which turned out perfectly for us. My sister showed up and let the HVAC technicians inside and they were able to install the new air conditioning system for him along with a new smart thermostat unit. My dad was so surprised when he came home and he had a brand new air conditioning system.

Air conditioning system

Our dog Charlie really loves the air conditioning during the summer time.

It’s fun to watch him bite at the air that comes through the air vents every day.

Sometimes it seems like it scares him a little bit whenever the air conditioning system kicks on, and sometimes I think that’s why he barks at it and bites at the air vents. It’s really funny to see him doing it though. We always laugh at him whenever we turn the thermostat down and the A/C kicks on. That dog is always making everyone in our family laugh. During the summer, he also likes to go for rides in the car with the windows down. He loves to stick his head out the window and it’s funny to see the air blowing in his face while he’s sniffing and barking out the window. The kids think that it’s hilarious to watch him either at the air conditioning vents in the house or with his head out the window in the car. But their favorite thing of all is whenever we have the air conditioning system running in the car. There must be a very interesting smell in the air conditioning system in there, because he likes to get as close as possible to the A/C vents with his nose and just sniff as fast as he possibly can. The kids think that it’s hysterical whenever he does this and I have to admit that I think so too. It’s like he’s trying to breathe in everything that he can, but the air is coming out of the air vents so fast that he can’t possibly process all of the smells that are coming his way.

We had a terrible time with the air conditioning system in our beach house a couple of summers ago.

We had closed up the house for a while so that we could go back to our regular home for a few months.

However, we always leave our heating and cooling system going whenever we aren’t there just to try and cut down on the humidity that makes its way into the house. This really backfired on us a couple of years ago when we left the air conditioning running when we were not there. We weren’t going to be there for a couple of months, but we left the air conditioning on just to keep the humidity out. This was a terrible idea in hindsight, because the air conditioning ended up leaking while we were not there. It soaked through the floor and ended up ruining a lot of the work that we had done down in the basement. It also ruined some of our Christmas storage that we had stored down there close to the air conditioning system. We learned a lesson with that. It could have been a whole lot worse I guess. That’s when we decided that we were going to have a heating and cooling company come and check on the air conditioning and heating system in the house every so often when we were not there. I just feel like it’s a good investment to do that since it will cost us a lot less than doing major repair work in the rest of the house should something ever go wrong again.
