  • The heating and air conditioning specialist walked to the house.

    I was really surprised to see the heating and air conditioning specialist walking up the sidewalk. He had his tool bag in hand, and looked like he was enjoying a late Spring constitution. I had never seen an actual heating and air conditioning tech who wasn’t in his service van. What if he actually needed […]

  • I thought the pet was in the air vent.

    I was ready to simply tear the air vents apart last week. I kept hearing a pet in the air vent. It wasn’t constant, but it was often. I checked the living room air vent, even though I couldn’t see anything. Another hour later, I was cleaning my dining room, and the sound of a […]

  • How long will it take to service the cooling system?

    I can’t tell you how many times I had to wait for a repairman, only to have him show up hours late and be out of the loft within fifteen minutes. It is one of the most annoying things I have gone through. I can handle when my family has hiccups, although I can’t handle […]

  • Are you sure it’s the heating and A/C corporation?

    My kid called me at work and told me the heating and A/C corporation was on the porch. I had told him not to let anyone in the cabin unless it was a family member. He would not even really let my best friend in, because I said no one but a family member, and […]

  • I have to have good air conditioning

    When you work a job like mine, Summer is the toughest challenge to getting the job done. Since I was a little kid, I would rather be outside of the residential HVAC of the house mowing the lawn. I don’t quite know exactly what it was that I found so appealing about mowing my parent’s […]

  • Will the heat pump get to the finish line?

    The suspense is actually killing me. And it’s sort of stressful as well. When you bet on a 28 year old heat pump to get through one more Summer, the outcome is certainly in doubt. But when you still make that bet after the HVAC technician told you not to, that’s where the stress comes […]

  • Making better breathing part of central air conditioning

    We are for sure breathing easier in our home. For one, we don’t have to worry about the heat pump dying and leaving us without air conditioning. When you live this far south, the last thing you want is coming home to zero air conditioning. We actually lucked out by getting through last Summer with […]

  • Spend money maintaining the residential HVAC

    For sure, I’m all for cutting costs around the house. I spend far too many hours inside the commercial HVAC of the office to waste any of my hard earned money. I’m thankful to have a family who supports me when it comes to reining in costs. Much of my income is predicated on a […]

  • Helping my aunt to pick out heating equipment for her home

    My aunt called me last week looking for my advice on the best heating equipment that would be both super-efficient and affordable in terms of energy consumption. I have been an HVAC specialist for several years and she knew I would know the best HVAC products for sale in the industry. In those years, I […]

  • A trip down memory lane that had us talking about our electric heating system at the time

    The other day at Thanksgiving, my siblings and I told stories and reminisced about our young days in the cold town we grew up in. We loved making a snowman, snow angels, and snowball fighting which was a favorite. Though we had snow gloves on, our little hands would be freezing. When we had enough […]

  • Why some homeowners enquire so much about what goes on during heater maintenance

    A question I get asked by my customer is what is included in comprehensive heater maintenance especially when they are looking at HVAC products for sale. I have been an HVAC specialist for a couple of years, and there are seasons when I get that question numerous times. During Spring and Fall, many homeowners will […]

  • Some of the way to troubleshoot a faulty wireless thermostat

    I met him when having dinner at the restaurant where I was a regular and he was the sous chef. We then bumped into each other at a convenience store where we exchanged numbers. I would, in later days, come to the hotel for a private dinner. We talked about ourselves and our professions. He […]

  • I have to have good a/c
