I walked into the house the other day, and I thought I was going to faint.
It was so hot in the house, that I could feel rivers of perspiration rolling between my shoulders, and down my spine.
I shiver from the feeling, but not because I was cold. I looked at the thermostat and everything looked fine, but I knew it wasn’t. I called the HVAC company and told them I had a minor emergency. I explained how hot it was in the house, but the thermostat looked fine. It was only registering seventy degrees. She told me she thought I may need a new thermostat. She asked if I wanted a digital, a smart thermostat, or if I was interested in trying the new Nest thermostat. The Nest Thermostat would run all of my electronics if they were connected to Google. I had no google says me products and had no intentions of getting them, so I said no to the nest thermostat. The smart thermostat peaked my interest. It was supposed to help with home security and keep the HVAC system running properly. I liked that combination and told her to send the smart thermostat and a digital thermostat to the house, with the HVAC technician. An hour later, I was in shorts and a tank top when the doorbell rang. I was glad to see the HVAC technician, but I wasn’t happy about who he was. My best friend stood outside the door, and he immediately told me he had said I needed a new thermostat.
