When I had my up-to-date heating system installed, the HVAC professional asked if I wanted my central a/c component installed.
I told him I didn’t want central a/c. I was quite enthusiastic with my window cooling systems, and he looked at me love I was crazy & said that central a/c was more convenient & it offered better cooling. I would not argue with him, although I also would not allow him to talk me into buying central a/c. I liked my window a/c units. I didn’t have thermostats affixed to a smart thermostat where I could turn the AC units off & on at will, although I didn’t have the AC units turned on unless someone was in the room. It took little time to cool a room & I couldn’t see wasting energy keeping it running all the time. All the window a/c units, however the one in the rooms every one of us were using, were turned off. I told the HVAC professional that our beach loft was always comfortable & it cost me less than $20 a month to cool the house. My sibling had central a/c, her bill went up almost $100 a month while I was in the Summer hours. He tried to tell me that was an exception, although I had already tuned him out. All I wanted was to have the up-to-date heating system installed, & if he couldn’t do that for me, I was going to call another HVAC company who would supply me a heating system without a central a/c unit. He changed his tactics & installed the up-to-date heating system.
