Try being the husband of a Heating specialist.

I’m not sure why everyone thinks Heating and Air Conditioning specialists are lucky, and they get a lot of sleep – but no one ever thinks about the husband of an Heating and Air Conditioning specialist. There are no set hours for my Heating and Air Conditioning specialist husband Ed. Ed is consistently running late, […]

The Heating tech said our furnace was about to die.

My husband Biff and I had talked about getting a whole-household air purification system installed. I knew Biff and I had to call an Heating and Air Conditioning corporation. There had to be a few unusual things which needed done when installing a whole-household air purification system. Biff called the Heating and Air Conditioning contractor […]

Heating and Air Conditioning ads weren’t for me.

When I talked about becoming the owner of a local Heating and Air Conditioning corporation, I was thinking about all the tasks I didn’t want to do. One of the scariest things about owning a small contractor biz is wondering how you were going to get clients. My husband Sam was gleeful and told me […]

Old-school Air Conditioning isn’t for everyone.

When Ed started talking about the BBQ the Heating and Air Conditioning contractor owner held every year, I wasn’t sure I wanted to go. My Mom used to talk about the contractor picnics he went […]

He said the window air conditioning units worked well, and they were cheaper. When they began dying one-by-one, he wanted […]

I worried the HVAC tech wouldn't make it.

Last week, I called the HVAC technician and asked them to send someone over and look at the air conditioning unit. I hadn’t used it yet this summer, and I wanted it inspected and cleaned before I turned it on. We had a couple of days in the mid-eighties, but now the humidity was coming […]

I didn’t think I’d need a furnace.

When I lived in the north, I hated it. I kept saying that when I got old enough to leave my parents house, I was going to move south. I was never warm enough, regardless of how good the furnace was working. When I moved south, I didn’t think I’d need a furnace. I thought […]
