Deciding to upgrade my house’s HVAC a bit

While my home is nice in many ways, it definitely needed some upgrades.

One of which was the heating and air conditioning system.

The HVAC unit was old and was going to kick the bucket any day now, so I had no problems with replacing it with something much nicer and more efficient. Not to mention, the heating component part of the A/C machine didn’t work well at all. Anyways, I didn’t really want to go with another central air conditioner, I decided that I wanted to try and save money. I have heard a lot of good things from people who have gone with mini split ductless air conditioners instead of the regular central A/C. I decided to buy multiple of the ductless HVAC units to try and save money. I had already done some careful calculation, and knew that I would save a lot of money in the long run. The only issue was actually getting the cooling units. The main place I buy from is currently closed, and I have no idea when they are going to open again. I could always buy online, but the shipping prices are crazy! It is frustrating to know what you want to do, but not be able to do it. I am going to wait awhile and see if my favorite HVAC store opens back up again. If not then I will be forced to get the machines somewhere else. I really hope I can get the new HVAC machine soon, because I am tired of my old and inefficient A/C system.

I have my own A/C preferences

Like everyone, I have my own temperature preferences.

I prefer nice moderate temperatures in the mid 70s. My family also agreed, and so we kept our house that way. However, when I moved out and then with my girlfriend, she liked the temperatures much colder than that. This kind of bothered me, because I didn’t like the cold nearly as much. But she was always super good at persuasion, and so the smart thermostat would be decreased to 70 degrees. Meanwhile our bills would skyrocket. She also liked having the air conditioning on almost all of the time, and so it was always so chilly in our house, and she liked it that way! I tried to go on for a while like this, but I eventually realized that I couldn’t keep living like this. I decided to talk to her about this. We sat down and had a long discussion, and we both didn’t want to give up our temperature preferences, but we also wanted each other to be comfortable. We eventually decided to just get a new A/C system, a zoned HVAC, and so that way we would both benefit and still have our preferred temperatures. The price of HVAC installation intimidated me, but my girlfriend already agreed to take on extra hours to help save up for the cost, and I agreed to do the same. I can’t wait to have the new system installed. It took several months before we had enough money, but when we did, we scheduled an appointment with our local A/C corporation for the new HVAC installation.

I like to live alone

But with my girlfriend it was pretty similar

Although I am a very social person overall, I have come to learn with time that I really like to live alone. It wasn’t always this way, it is due to experience. This naturally makes getting into a serious relationship difficult, but let me explain why I feel this way. My first experience with living with someone was with my roommate when I moved out of my parent’s home. My roommate and I got along okay, but we weren’t really that close. We didn’t talk too much and kind of kept to ourselves. However, my roommate was very controlling when it came to the heating and cooling of the home. He was always accusing me of touching the smart thermostat when I hadn’t. Since he paid more for the place and lived there first, he was the one who made the rules regarding the air conditioner, and since he almost never turned the A/C on, our place was almost always hot. I was miserable, and couldn’t stand not having cooling. When I finally moved out with my girlfriend, I thought that was a one off experience. But with my girlfriend it was pretty similar. Except we were supposed to share the HVAC machine, but she would never stop whining and complaining about the temperatures, it became extremely annoying when she would mention it every day. We ended up breaking up for that reason as well as some others. I love to live alone because I can choose whatever temperature I want the thermostat to be at, and not worry about anyone else.

I didn’t want to be out in the sun

I rushed home and sat in front of the HVAC vent for a while.

The last thing I wanted to do was go outside on a day like this. It was one of those days where the sun was out and shining bright. The temperatures were in the high 90s, and there was no wind. Even though I had to run errands today, I did not plan on staying out in the sun. The plan was to quickly go from my car’s nice air conditioning to the building’s nice A/C, and avoid the hot temperatures. However, that doesn’t always work out the way I planned. I ordered lunch from a nearby restaurant that was within walking distance. I made sure to hurry my way over there to avoid being in the sun longer than necessary, however, to my dismay, there was a long line. Since I had already ordered, I was forced to wait in this long line. I am not sure why they were so busy that day, because they are not usually very busy. Anyways, it took almost 20 minutes to get my food, and by then, I was sweating pretty bad. I rushed home and sat in front of the HVAC vent for a while. The heat killed my appetite, and so I was completely fine with just sitting and enjoying the air conditioning. I decided to watch TV a bit, and by then my appetite had returned. I then got to enjoy my lunch, and the coolness of my home. I am glad I have great air conditioning, because I couldn’t imagine going without it in the middle of the summer.
