When the furnace in my lake residence stopped toiling, I panicked… I was on the brink of the most nippy weather of the year, and I didn’t have an instant source of heat.
I reached out to many businesses, however because it was the Holiday season nobody had time to fit me in for a lake house call… When the panic subsided I started to think way more clearly and decided to pop up to Walmart and invest in a space heater.
It was just a temporary solution, however it would provide the heating I needed for a little while. Then the strangest thing happened. I liked the space oil furnace so much I started to question if I should bother fixing the central HVAC machine at all. The space oil furnace was definitely powerful, however also far more energy efficient than the central HVAC machine. It was a little inconvenient to transport the space oil furnace from room to room with me, however otherwise it was perfectly adequate for my needs. When the local HVAC companies were able to fit me in for an appointment, I wasn’t sure I wanted them to come to my residence. It would cost at least a couple hundred bucks, bare minimum, to get my central oil furnace toiling once more. Winters here are intense, however pretty short, so in a couple more weeks I would not need an oil furnace much at all. When I weighed my available options and carefully looked at the cost involved, I thought it best to keep using the space oil furnace and not spend the extra currency for central HVAC machine repair. I sincerely hope it works out for me!
