Smart Thermostat Facts

My wife and I have been trying to save as much money as we can lately.

We really want to buy a new house because we want to start a family as soon as possible.

Well, since we are trying to save money, we have been putting off repairs that need to be made around our current house. We also know that we are going to have to sell our house once we do have enough money saved so we aren’t in a rush to repair things around the house. That being said, we have been putting off repairing the furnace for about a year now. Well, the winter season is about to start so I know that we will need a working furnace to get us through the winter season. So, I called a local HVAC company to see if they could give me a quote to repair our furnace. They sent out an HVAC tech to assess our furnace to give a proper quote. Well, when the HVAC tech looked at the furnace, I knew that he was going to give us a very high quote. I knew all along that we should have just had the furnace repaired when it started breaking down last winter, but we just weren’t in the right place financially to get the furnace repaired. I think moving forward we just have to make sure that we are taking care of our house because we don’t want to get ourselves into another situation like this where we have to pay more money in the end.

 

Putting off furnace repair

I live in a very cold part of the country.

I have lived in this type of climate my entire life and I don’t think that I will ever leave.

I really like the cold weather so much! I have visited a southern climate in the past and I have to admit that it’s not for me, there is something about the warm weather that really just turns me off and I could not imagine living in a climate where I have to keep the air conditioner turned on all day and night. This year has been a really tough winter for us though, it has snowed about six feet in the past week and we are expected to get even more snow. At this point most people can’t even leave their homes, so we are stuck inside all day. I know several people who have lost power and don’t have access to an HVAC system anymore. Thankfully, everyone that I know has back up space heaters in case this happens because it has happened several times in the past and we have all had to learn our lesson the hard way. However, when you have space heaters plugged in you have to be extra careful because space heaters can start a fire very quickly and can engulf your whole house in flames in a matter of minutes. I think everyone should have to take a safety class when they purchase a space heater for the first time because it’s easy to get yourself into a bad situation with space heaters.

Integrated System Installation

I am finally living in my dream home. I have been dreaming of living in the house for as long as I can remember. I had a book of magazine clippings with pictures of the house that I am living in now. They only thing that my house is missing is a great HVAC system. I designed this house to meet everyone of my needs, but I didn’t even think about the HVAC system to be honest. I just told the contractor to put in whatever HVAC system he thought would be appropriate for a house this size. I trusted my contractor, but the HVAC system he had installed really isn’t working for me. For the most part, the HVAC system is fine, but in my bathroom I am always freezing cold in the mornings. So, instead of having my contractor come back out to the house and paying a ton of money to have the HVAC system fixed. I decided that I would just get a small space heater to warm up the bathroom. So far the space heater has been working perfectly. I just have to make sure that I turn off the space heater before I leave because I don’t want to accidentally burn the house down. I hope that I can just keep using the space heater and don’t actually have to change anything else. I really don’t want to have to spend anymore money on the house at this moment.

It was just as bad in the summer when the heat would keep us up at night because we would be covered in sweat and soaking wet through our clothes

When I was growing up my parents didn’t have any money. My dad worked out on a farm and my mom stayed home to take care of my four brothers and I because we were a handful to say the least. I wish we would have been easier on my mom growing up, but we were just young and rowdy boys that were always getting into trouble. Since my dad wasn’t bringing in very much money working on the farm, we really had to cut corners where we could. My mom tried her best to feed us all on a tiny budget, but feeding five boys is no easy task. She would also make us share clothes because we were all so close in size. Another way they would cut corners to save money was to not have an HVAC system. In fact, most families in our area didn’t have HVAC systems either. It was a pretty common thing for our area because everyone was pretty poor. In the winter when it was really cold outside we would make a fire to warm up the house. The fire would really only warm up the family room and it was hard to fall asleep in our bedroom without any heat to keep us warm. It was just as bad in the summer when the heat would keep us up at night because we would be covered in sweat and soaking wet through our clothes. It was tough not having an HVAC system in the summer and winter.

 

 

furnace/heater

My across the street neighbors are family friends, so we are always helping each other out when it comes to things around the house. So, when they asked me to watch their house while they were on vacation. I didn’t think twice about it, but later realized that if I said yes that meant I would have to look after their dogs as well. I really didn’t mind since they are always helping me out with things too. So I checked on the house the first day they were gone and everything was going good. However, I woke up the next day to a bad snow storm so I knew that I needed to go to the house and make sure they dogs weren’t too scared. Well, right when I walked into the house I knew something was wrong. The house was freezing cold and I had a feeling that the heater wasn’t working. I went over to the thermostat and noticed that the temperature of the house was forty degrees. I saw the dogs in the corner of the house snuggled together to keep warm. I felt so bad that they had to sleep in the house all night without the heater. I called an HVAC company to come out to the house but because of the storm they weren’t able to come out that day. So I walked the dogs across the street to my house where the HVAC system was working and the heater was turned on. Hopefully the HVAC company will be able to come out soon!
