I recently installed a window component in my dining room alongside the central HVAC component to help with indoor comfort in addition to energy efficiency since it is where I spent most of my time when I was at home; I had even upgraded the analog temperature control with a smart one which allowed me to change or adjust the temperature in the apartment even when I was at work; All this so that I could try in addition to save more on the energy cost.
- I knew the SEER rating of my new cooling system component was not so nice since it was an old model but I could not afford a new cooling system.
I was even dreading the HVAC repair I had signed up with the local HVAC contractor, but I knew I had stretched my advantage even with the a/c filter upgradement. I knew that when the HVAC specialist came for a/c repair, she would tell me that the cooling system was hanging on a prayer but there was nothing I could do. I needed to get a new filter but I kept telling myself that I lived close to the ocean so it was not necessarily true, then the indoor air quality at my locale was not so good. The ductwork has a lot of duct tape courtesy of my playing the job of an HVAC specialist, but I had to do something about the leaks in the ductwork. With the new pay cuts at my workplace, I could barely afford the service fee. I was feeling actually frustrated since I was living on the bare minimum. If I happened to pass the last interview I attended, it would be of much relief since it was a actually well-paying task. In the meantime, apartment services had to take a back seat.
