We were thinking about the old portable space heaters

We were thinking the other afternoon about the ancient portable space heaters and the modern day portable units.

And we have to say that the ancient portable space heaters were big. They weren’t so portable the way we remember them. We recall having one in the family bathroom growing up that was used to heat the bathroom when we took showers. If anyone wanted to relocate that thing it was not a simple thing like how portable space heaters are today. Back then they were a heavy metal type and heavy. We remember having to relocate that portable or so called portable space heater with many hands. When we got it to where it needed to be moved to we felt like we just had a mini work out. We would not call that a portable space heater at all. Today, portable space heaters are made of heat resistant plastic. These units are light and are about as small as a little blender. Not to mention the portable space heaters of today are way more powerful than the portable heating units we used to have back in the day. This just goes to show how heating and cooling technology has changed over the years. We do not miss the older portable heaters one bit and are super glad that today we have the portable space heater that we do. They are so much better and truly portable space heaters. We wonder if they will get even better?

She purchased a modern central heating and cooling unit

Wendy’s mom recently purchased a modern central heating and cooling unit. Honestly, that this central heating and that she purchased is like no other. It’s the most powerful central heating and cooling Wendy has ever experienced in her whole entire life. Wendy is not used to central heating and cooling being this powerful. She had not bought a modern heating and cooling unit in almost 18 years, so this is proof of how much heating and cooling technology has changed majorly over the last few decades. Who knew? Who had any clue? Wendy sure as heck did not. She is not one who keeps up on the latest and greatest in heating and air conditioning technology. To her, if it works and does the work, that is all that’s needed and it is all superb for her. Wendy does not need the latest and greatest in heating and cooling technology unless she has no choice, like now. But she has to say she is so cheerful about this. Because the central heating and cooling her mom just bought is so powerful, this absolutely saves them on energy use and lowers her electric bill. Because it heats and cools the loft faster than the outdated central heating and cooling unit from 18 years ago. Plus, this modern central heating and cooling that Wendy’s mom recently invested her hard received money into has a honestly high and beautiful SEER rating!

There are no signs whatsoever of the heating and cooling unit dying

They just don’t make them like they used to

We have had the same central heating and a/c for almost 25 years. That is way longer than a central heating and a/c unit is supposed to last. And would you believe that there are no signs whatsoever of the heating and cooling unit dying on us? We are totally astonished by this and so is our independent heating and air conditioning tech that does all the work on the heating and cooling system of ours. Each time she comes around to do a heating and air conditioning tune up and check up she’s always astonished when she contemplates how old this central heating and cooling unit is. A heat and a/c system this old should either be long dead or at the least on its last leg needing an upgrade. None of the above applies when it comes to our central heating and a/c unit. The heat and a/c tech thinks it is because we always kept up on all of our heating and air conditioning service over the years. Plus, the fact that the Heating and A/C brand of our central heating and cooling system happened to be one of the best around 25 years ago when we first purchased it. They just don’t make them like they used to. And we have evidence of that. And hey, who knows, maybe our central heating and a/c will end up in the book of world records as the longest lasting heat and a/c unit in history!

They went with a ductless heat pump in their new bedroom

Not only are the boys now happily in their own dining room but they have their own space and own heating and cooling.

Waking up in a modern bedroom is almost like being on vacation. Ben and Julie have a coffee pot right in their modern space that they set every night. So, they wake to the aroma of freshly brewed java and sunshine streaming through the modern window of their bedroom. And without getting out of bed, Ben and Julie can adjust the ductless heat pump to supply them the exact quality heating and air they need depending on the season. This week, it was hot and beautiful so they were able to take their soda out on their private deck. That would be the deck that sits just beyond the french doors. Seriously, Ben and Julie did something good with this modern addition. Actually, it was an answer that they had to come up with to keep their boys from killing each other. The two youngest boys had been sharing a room since they were babies. Those two are only a year apart and Ben and Julie had hoped they’d be able to continue to share a room inside the central air conditioning of their beach house. That didn’t turn out so well and it was clear that they had to have more space. There was no way Ben and Julie were buying a bigger beach house with the prices out there. So the only thing that made any sense was to add on to their existing home. Thank goodness they made the right call. Not only are the boys now happily in their own dining room but they have their own space and own heating and cooling. Since the Heating and A/C unit couldn’t handle this much air volume, Ben and Julie made the decision to go with a ductless heat pump in their modern dining room. It’s simply awesome and they are able to have their own heating and cooling. It does feel sort of like a vacation beach house.

Tracy phoned the heating and AC workers to have them help her out

Okay, so in truth, Tracy was resistant from the start when it came to selling their lake house.

  • She just didn’t want to relocate and that’s the simple truth.

She’s not much into change. Tracy likes to get up in the day, adjust the temperature control and take a shower. Then, she likes to get ready for work and drive to the office. Tracy does her thing inside the commercial Heating and A/C of the office all afternoon and then it’s back to the lake house for supper, relax a bit and then hit the sack. She has enjoyed repeating that routine over and over again in the years that they lived in that lake house. But, she knew Bob was right about selling the lake house. For one, the possibilities of their being this great real estate market again in the next few years was doubtful. And they had always viewed their lake house as the greatest of their investments. So this was the payoff and they needed to act. Tracy got on board but she was dragging her feet the whole way. Like when the realtor came up with this list of improvements, but replacing the Heating and A/C unit and putting in modern living room appliances were going to be cost outlays that Tracy wasn’t prepared to make. She pushed back and they put the lake house on the market as it was. It sat there and the only offers they received were well below market value and their asking price. So Tracy phoned the Heating and A/C workers to have them help her out of this mess she put them in. They were able to install just the best in residential Heating and A/C that came with different cool Heating and A/C technology. They had an offer above the asking price within a week after making those improvements.

The heating and AC experts helped him out as well

If the pandemic taught John anything it’s that he can adapt and that working from home inside the central air conditioning of his cabin is okay.

  • Actually, it’s better than okay as that’s where he is working now.

Each day, John rises well before dawn to start his day here inside his home office. He can get an early start while the only thing he can hear is the heat pump kicking on. Once the kids are up, John gets them ready, feeds them and hurries them off for the school run. At that point, he is able to have another cup of coffee and start making the calls and doing the online meetings that he has set for the day. Most of the time, John has taken the skills he honed from all those years inside the commercial Heating and A/C of a corporate office and is doing work for himself. That’s the other thing that the pandemic did for John. It helped him be confident enough to finally take a chance on himself. The guest room pretty much sat completely empty so he took it over and cleared it out. Now, it’s the office that John has always wanted with everything that he needs to do his task. The Heating and A/C experts helped him out as well when it came to making his modern cabin office just perfect. They managed to add zone controlled Heating and A/C to his cabin so John now has a temperature control right inside his home office. This is good because it allows him to work in the sort of air conditioning he wants without making the whole cabin have to adjust to him. The zone controlled Heating and A/C honestly was the cherry on top when it came to launching his own business and working from his own air conditioning.

That ductless heat pump might have saved his home

The answer was sort of right in front of Boniface the whole time.

It’s just that he couldn’t see it.

But when he did, it was sweet relief. Like many other families across the globe, Boniface made the decision to go through his legitimate share of adjustments when the pandemic was raging. He got sent home from the zone controlled Heating and A/C of the office to work from his cabin. And that came with no bonuses and a pay cut for like 16 months. Yet, Boniface managed to work inside the air conditioning of his cabin that first Summer. His partner was unfortunate as she lost her job completely. That’s when the panic nearly got the best of them. Her paycheck was just about half of their income and it was now suddenly gone. The cabin they own together comes with a mortgage that was right at the edge of their finances. And now the unthinkable had happened. It’s not like she could just apply and get hired because nobody was hiring. His partner managed to get some gig work online and work alongside him inside the central air conditioning. But that didn’t come close to helping them make ends meet. They thought they were going to have to sell the cabin. When the answer came, it was like a bolt of lightning for both of them. The basement was finished and had its own entrance and a bathroom with a shower. All they had to do was have the Heating and A/C business come out and install a ductless heat pump down there and they could rent it out. That ductless heat pump might have saved their home.

She can still remember the radiant heating from the radiators

It’s just so peculiar for Naomi being a homeowner and living in an estate.

It’s so much more than the Brady Bunch mental picture she’s had in her head much of her adult life.

Naomi grew up inside apartment highrises inside the city. We’re talking tall buildings with boilers in the basement the size of several battle tanks. She can still remember the radiant heating from the radiators in their apartment. That may have been the best heating method Naomi has ever experienced. Now, she lives further south where the heat pump takes care of both her heating and cooling needs. Naomi is 52 and this is her first time ever being in an area where there was a fence and a yard involved. She loves this much more than sharing walls with her neighbors. It makes it much easier to want to help out when you can. The neighbor next door to her is a young girl who is just starting out. She’s a good girl and eager to learn the finer parts about being a productive adult. Naomi admires that in a lady because she’s still doing the same thing. So when you have some years on you, there are things you know. When her neighbor texted her about an Heating and A/C problem she was having, Naomi went over to see if she could lend a hand. They diagnosed the fuse and the breaker. Her temperature control was responding to commands but nothing from the heating and cooling equipment. At that point, Naomi gave her the number of her Heating and A/C professionals. She told her that any further messing with the heat pump should only be done by a Heating and A/C professional. You don’t want to go ahead and void an Heating and A/C warranty. That’s one of those things she’s learned along the way.

Nobody’s getting into my HVAC cabinet

But I’m just getting more and more sad at what I’m seeing from people

I swear, the depths of desperation seem to get only deeper when it comes to what people are willing to do for a dollar. I actually swim at a community pool where we all pay dues for unlimited access to the pool. This little spot also has a workout room that is air conditioned. I help out around the pool in an effort to give back a bit. And that includes straightening up the place after an evening swim. I noticed that various dumbbells and weight equipment were disappearing from the air conditioning of the little work out room. Sure enough, a member was stealing them. I mean, these are not high dollar items but rather old in fact. Still, I found them online being sold for literally dollars. And these people have good jobs! I was beyond disappointed and a bit stunned. But then again, I have had to put a reinforced steel cage over the HVAC cabinet that sits outside my home. There is a trend that has popped up recently where thieves are ripping apart this piece of residential HVAC equipment to get to the copper fittings. Again, we are talking about handfuls of copper that is then sold on the black market for pennies on the dollar. Yet, this type of burglary leaves in its wake thousands of dollars in heating and cooling equipment completely destroyed. I hate to sound like some whining old guy. But I’m just getting more and more sad at what I’m seeing from people. I hate that there are people in situations or with mindsets that stealing is somehow justified.

Needed the right HVAC contractor

And wow, the cooling comfort from the geo heat pump is incredible

I’m so thankful that we are inside our new home before the Summer weather hits. After we sold our house in order to build this one, we had to live in an apartment for a year. I just couldn’t face another Summer in that apartment. It’s a nice enough place but the air conditioning situation was just awful. That would have everything to do with the fact that the residential HVAC in that place was ancient. In fact, I looked all over the HVAC equipment and couldn’t even find a SEER rating. That’s pretty much unheard of. But somehow, they keep that old HVAC equipment running. My wife and I sweltered through last Summer as the HVAC unit just couldn’t get close to matching the cooling demand. That’s not the case this year. Our house is finished. And thanks to the awesome HVAC contractor we found to install our residential HVAC, we are going to be so amazingly comfortable. We had to find just the right HVAC professional for our residential HVAC. That’s because we wanted someone with direct experience when it comes to installing a geothermal heat pump. The installation is much more complicated than a traditional heat pump. So we wanted to be sure that we found someone with both the knowledge and experience it took to get this right. It’s still May so the air conditioning isn’t on all the time. However, we’ve had it on a few times during the peak heating hours of the day. And wow, the cooling comfort from the geo heat pump is incredible. It won’t be long now before the house is all sealed up for Summer and that geothermal heat pump is earning its keep.

That’s pretty much unheard of; But somehow, they keep that old Heating and Air Conditioning component running, then my wifey and I sweltered through last Summer as the Heating and Air Conditioning component just couldn’t get close to matching the cooling demand. That’s not the case this year, and our condo is finished.
