While we’re just weeks past celebrating Christmas in this house, I got my large present in September. But it didn’t come without some stress before I finally acquired it. My awesome present was the latest in residential HVAC plus a whole mess of HVAC technology. While I knew that HVAC technology has advanced over the last 25 years, I have to say I’m overwhelmed by how much. The heat pump that went out of here in the back of a truck was one we put in 26 years ago. It was the first appliance my fiance plus I ever bought. My buddy and I got a steal on our house all those years ago plus one of the reasons was because the residential HVAC was so old. With plenty of HVAC maintenance, we got every bit of our money’s worth out of that ancient heat pump. But we ended up rolling the dice to see if it would get through one more summer time before we upgraded it with new heating plus cooling equipment in September. It was a tense summer time as the heat pump very got a bit overwhelmed by November. And the a/c costs began to spike a bit. But we got through to September when the HVAC professionals installed our new HVAC unit. Again, I can’t know all the HVAC technology that comes with this thing. There’s zone controlled HVAC as well as smart thermostat inside the house. And the SEER rating on the equipment is triple what the ancient one was. So HVAC technology is making it much cheaper to prefer quality heating plus air in our home.
