Living with our fiance

I moved in with our fiance about more than two weeks ago! She lives about 400 miles away in the city.

Though our family was sad, I was moving out.

They were happy to visit & were cheerful about our current start; Since I moved at the start of summer, the first night was scorching hot. I couldn’t even sleep comfortably. My fiance apologized because her air conditioning program had malfunctioned a few hours before I landed, & she couldn’t reach any air conditioning company as they were swamped. The first few weeks of Summer are the busiest for cooling specialists. Her neighbor came over to return the grassmower she had borrowed & said she had a buddy who worked in the industry & knew more about air conditioning. The air conditioner rep came the following morning & did some air conditioning repairs. The hour morning was elegant, it was sunny outside, but the newly fixed heat pump gave quality cooling. It was an adventure & a great experience getting to feel & learn from each other. Since I didn’t want a repeat of the cooling device malfunctioning mid-summer, I would schedule any air conditioning tune-ups in mid-fall. I also l earned how to change the air conditioning filters to improve indoor air conditions, then every one of us have gotten into a routine with our cooling product & the air conditioning expert, where both of us schedule any maintenance on the Last month of fall. My fiance works with cooling technology & knows what goes into air conditioning upgrade, however she is not a qualified air conditioner rep as she prefers a desk or lab job to a field job. It was elegant residing together, & it was easier for us to system our ceremony.

I’m ditching the smart HVAC

I have had a smart thermostat going on 3 months now, then and I have to say that I am totally not happy with it… The smart thermostat is too much of a hassle for me plus my lifestyle, so I have decided that I am getting rid of it.

I am going to go back to the basics of either a digital thermostat or a dial thermostat.

These things are easy cut n dry for me, and you do not have to control it on some iPad or cell PC app. You just walk over to it plus turn it on plus your central heating plus air conditioning method will work just fine. The other month I lost my cell PC plus as a result I could not use my central heating plus air conditioning! It was a fantastic thing it happened to be a afternoon where heating or air conditioning was not needed, otherwise I would have been up the creek! Had I had a regular thermostat like a dial thermostat or a digital thermostat nothing like this would have ever happened plus would not have to rely on a PC app or iPad app just to run my central heating plus air conditioning method unit, then lord knows why they even made smart thermostats. The concept is nice plus great, but there are so numerous flaws plus troubles that should be ironed out. If they ever do service these troubles, like making it to where you do not need the cell PC app to control the thermostat plus the central heating plus air conditioning method unit, then maybe I could give it another try.

These things are easy split n dry for me, however you do not have to control it on some iPad or cell cellphone app. You just walk over to it and turn it on and your central heating and air conditioner plan will work just fine. The other week I lost my cell cellphone and as a result I could not use my central heating and A/C! It was a great thing it happened to be a day where heating or air conditioner was not needed; Otherwise I would have been up the creek, but had I had a correct thermostat love a dial thermostat or a digital thermostat nothing love this would have ever happened and would not have to rely on a cellphone app or iPad app just to run my central heating and air conditioner plan unit; Lord knows why they even made smart thermostats. The concept is nice and great, however there are so many flaws and issues that should be ironed out. If they ever do fix these issues, love making it to where you do not need the cell cellphone app to control the thermostat and the central heating and air conditioner plan unit, then maybe I could provide it another try.

Using the water boiler for a wet sauna

For years we just used the basement for extra storage.

During the COVID lockdown there was a lot of free time to do household projects, so I took on the chore of clearing out the basement.

There were boxes plus bags down there from when we first moved in! Most of it went right into the trash bin. If I hadn’t needed it for almost a decade, why bother keeping it at all? When it was all said plus done there was a huge room open plus waiting to be repurposed. The only thing keeping the part from being a Rec Room or a spare family room was the water boiler. The water boiler sat in the corner, plus generated so much heat plus moisture it would be difficult for the room to remain occupied for long periods of time. This was why it was being used for storage in the first locale, because the water boiler made it too moderate down there. In a fit of inspiration, I realized I could kill 2 doves with 1 tile plus use the water boiler as the source for a home sauna. The water boiler would provide ambient heating plus high levels of humidity, so if I could amp that up a little more the whole basement would be an amazing wet sauna. I called an Heating in addition to A/C professional to get his expert opinion, plus he said the water boiler would be perfect for this idea, then he did advocate a modern humidity cut-off switch, so that if the air quality became dangerously damp the water boiler would turn off.

I don’t enjoy dogs!

I will smile plus lie plus say that I like pets, but in truth I do not, and animal lovers are a peculiar kind of people, plus being honorablewith them is not the best policy, and telling a animal owner that you don’t prefer cats has the same result as kicking their cat. They will treat you prefer you are morally suspect, because you don’t prefer their stupid pets, and i am never mean to pets, I just don’t prefer having them around me, but when I go on an Heating in addition to A/C service call plus someone has a big animal that is sniffing me, I ask the client to put the animal away. I will also make a note on their account, so that future Heating in addition to A/C techs guess what they are walking into. “Oh, but my animal is so nice” says every Heating in addition to A/C client ever, even when the animal is not particularally nice. There was 1 time that I had to install a modern central component in a lady’s backyard. It was a fenced in backyard, where she let her cats run wild. I asked her to put them away when I worked on the air conditioner, but she didn’t do it; Since I had to go in plus out the gate to bring in my tools plus the upgradement parts, 1 of the cats managed to escape. She said she would sue myself and others if the animal got hurt, so I just loaded up my tools plus the upgradement parts plus drove away. She can service her own air conditioning.

Using the hot water boiler for a wet sauna

This was why it was being used for storage in the first site, because the water boiler made it too hot down there.

The job qualifications were vast

After I finished with Heating & Air Conditioning technical college, it was hard for myself and others to find a job.

  • There were a lot of locales hiring close to home, although I wanted to transfer to a different town with our current husbandy.

She did not want to stay in our little hometown where there wasn’t anything fun to do on the weekends. Both of us moved a little bit closer to the town & the rent was higher than we anticipated. It took a long time for myself and others to find a job too. I applied for a position with a lot of different heating & A/C companies, then unfortunately, most of those locales wanted the candidate to have at least a single or 2 years of on the job experience & I did not have any at all. I had to work in a pizzeria as a server until I found a full-time position. The job qualifications for that locale included 2 years of training as well, however they let myself and others start & put myself and others on a 90-day probationary period. I had to ride around with someone else & basically do all of the grunt work. I had to start somewhere, so I could not complain after I got a position. I did learn a lot during those 90 mornings & it felt enjoy I did not know anything from the classroom when I thought that I knew everything. I can easily understand why so numerous of the Heating & Air Conditioning corporations only wanted a qualified candidate with more than a single year of Heating & Air Conditioning on the job training. I am now a full-time Heating & Air Conditioning corporation & I officially get overtime at work. The boss trusts myself and others & knows that I am going to get everything done the right way without complaining.

The hotel had a nice gym

I enjoy to work out & stay physically fit! Even though I have a job that takes myself and others out of town often, I still try to work out when I am in a hotel.

I also have a membership to a gym that is nationally known & the locale has fitness centers all over the country.

I mostly rely on the fitness center & the hotel. I constantly check to see what the fitness center looks enjoy before I make any reservations, then some people check to see what the lunch options are & other people want room service. Some people assume that the heating & cooling system is the most crucial thing & others are interested in the bathtub or jacuzzi settings. I just want a nice fitness center with the machines that I enjoy to use. I went to a different Hotel a couple of months ago & it was our first time visiting the locale. They had absolutely good reviews online for the fitness area so I was super excited to see that first. After I checked in & took our bags upstairs, I went right to the fitness center. The locale was packed. It was not a surprise to see the locale so busy, especially after I went inside. They had lots of different machines & great indoor air conditions. The locale had a separate ductless heating & cooling system & an air cleaner. It was set up absolutely nicely & still a safe locale where we could work out without worrying about getting covid.

Cheap air filters

Price plus quality are important factors to consider when buying an air filter… Besides removing dust from the air plus preventing allergies, a fantastic air filter is also more expensive… A cheap air filter differs from an expensive 1, but here are some differences between the multiple, then filters that are cheap don’t last as long as those that are expensive, however cheap air filters are usually made from paper plus cardboard! Materials are cheap to manufacture, but not durable.

Cheap filters capture half the dust or pollen before becoming blocked plus needing replacement, requiring twice the repair time (and twice the cost) of expensive filters… They may also need to be replaced more frequently if exposed to heat or moisture.

High-quality materials are used in expensive air filters. Fiberglass is a porous material that can trap more dust plus pollen than other materials like cardboard or paper. Additionally, fiberglass resists moisture plus does not tear as really as other materials. The cost of manufacturing it is higher, but it lasts longer plus requires less repair, but you will be able to filter more particulate matter if your air filter has a higher MERV rating! Investing in a high-quality air filter that costs a few extra dollars can keep dust plus other contaminants out of your lungs plus reduce indoor allergens. There may be fewer pleats (sometimes called folds) in a cheap air filter, which reduces the surface section for trapping contaminants. Cheap air filters are not as effective at removing dust plus other contaminants. In homes with more people, pets, plus perhaps someone with a respiratory problem, this is especially true. In the long run, it will cost you more to replace them.
