Weather takes a turn; treehouse is freezing
My husband and I like to go on fun adventures together. We are always looking for novel new experiences to enjoy as a couple. This is why we are known to be rather adventurous amongst our friends and family. They think that we are always up to something and they aren’t exactly wrong. In fact, […]

Wife’s friend is a bad influence, obsessed with air filtration
Because of her friends she has decided that we need advanced air filtration devices and a lot of thermostat control to keep the indoor air healthy. I love my wife more than anything but she has terrible taste in human beings. Yes, I understand that this also pertains to the person that she married. I’m […]

Please watch your kids; they get burnt and maimed
I wouldn’t exactly say that I am the type of person who loves kids. I tolerate kids. I can find kids entertaining in short periods. But I do not want children of my own. I don’t really enjoy having them around and I am not cut out to be a babysitter. I really never thought […]

Need the sound of HVAC to concentrate; white noise machine at work
I guess that your environmental conditions really matter when you are performing a task. I never realized how sensitive I was to external stimulation until fairly recently. For most of my life I have been able to live and work in a fairly controlled environment. I have lived alone and I have worked from home. […]

Fell in love at HVAC school – woman
When I was a kid and my family was constantly telling me about the indoor air handling technician lifestyle. Most of the men in my family are heating and cooling workers and they wanted me to follow in the family footsteps. In fact, since my grandpa opened his heating, cooling, and air quality control dealership […]

Packing website with helicopter-parent keywords
Beyond telling you how I program my thermostat I couldn’t give you any details about indoor air temperature management When I was hired as a media manager I was pretty blown away. I can’t say that I know very much about social media or projecting an image for a brand from my past life. In […]

At least we had our own AC unit at her parents’ house
I thoroughly enjoyed having our own separate thermostats and heating conditions throughout the night There’s nothing more uncomfortable than staying with your in-laws. It’s bad enough when you’re just meeting Mom and Dad, let alone staying in their house with them. I’ve never had a good experience staying with any of my girlfriends parents before. […]

Asking for HVAC donations at the shelter
When you work for an animal shelter it’s nearly impossible to do everything on your own. You have to ask for a lot of help. This goes for the manual labor, supplies, and the infrastructure. There’s no end to the things that you’re going to need. Unfortunately, it seems like my animal shelter is running […]

Everyone was driving me crazy; got mini split systems
Sometimes desperate times call for desperate measures. I’d like to believe that this wasn’t the case, but we’ve reached that moment in time. You see, for the past 5 months I’ve been trapped indoors with my family. They have been driving me insane for at least the past 4.5 months of this ordeal. Unfortunately, there’s […]

My AC unit came in, but they never notified me
Sometimes I really wonder about local businesses. It feels like they don’t actually want to earn your money at times. Specifically, when you’re attempting to hire them for any service and they stop getting back to you. It’s stressful and awkward to call the front desk day after day, asking if they’re ever going to […]

This dog is so hairy
For the past ten years I swore that I would never have a light haired dog. I have been completely adverse to the idea of getting a large hairy beast who would be shedding fur all over my house… let alone white fur that would clash with all the black clothing I wear. Obviously, it […]

HVAC tech was not sober
Fun fact about me; I come from a family of addicts. It’s okay, we all have managed to get our diseases under control eventually. However, I know what it’s like to interact with an alcoholic or hard drug addict. I wish that other people realized how obvious it could be from the outside… namely, my […]

Schools can’t afford the HVAC systems
It’s absolutely ridiculous that anyone is considering sending our kids back to school before the virus is under control. In my humble opinion, we are endangering everyone by forcing this issue too soon. I think we would be better served staying inside and waiting for the caseload to drop before we try to make our […]

My next career is teaching HVAC techs
I never thought that I would still be working at this age. Honestly, I expected to be done with my professional career right after I turned 55. I had saved and prepared for that moment for my entire life. However, when the day rolled around and I left my daily position as an HVAC repair […]

HVAC shop has the worst communication
The older I get the more I realize that I have certain weaknesses. Of course, I’ve always known this. However, some of them are getting more specific. Recently, it came to my attention that I am an awful communicator. I’ve always thought that I was fairly skilled with general communication. These days, I’m quite certain […]
