I’ve certainly had my eye on the old HVAC unit the last few years. Yet, it just still kept pumping out quality heating and air. However, about eight months ago that all changed. The HVAC technician came out to do the air conditioning tune up prior to all the heat and humidity we get in the summer. The HVAC professional told me that HVAC equipment was nearing an end. There were signs I would see when the end was in sight. Yet, I really wasn’t going to wait around to see those signs. The way it looked to me, I thought we got more value out of that old HVAC unit then we could have expected. I even had started a savings account a few years ago expecting the HVAC unit to simply stop working. I definitely didn’t want to get caught unprepared at the point that the HVAC simply died. So when it was confirmed by the HVAC technician, I chose to contact the HVAC company and start the process. The HVAC contractor came to our home to inspect and then go over all the options with us. I’m sure glad he did that as the residential HVAC landscape has definitely evolved in the past quarter century. But I was very happy to learn that our ductwork was still going to be functional which was a huge cost savings. Our new HVAC equipment was installed last spring and it has been glorious. It was easily the best air conditioning of my life this past summer.
