The weird time of year
Here in the southwest we have reached what I call the weird time of year.
That time is Fall. It is not like the Fall in normal parts of the world. Here it is super hot in the day and pretty darn cold at night! My central heating and air conditioning system sure gets a work out this time of the year. At night I will have my heater on with the thermostat set at 74 degrees. Then, by Noon the next day I have flipped the thermostat over to the air conditioning and the thermostat is set at 72 degrees because it is almost one hundred degrees outside! This time of the year lots of people end up getting sick here because of the drastic change in weather. Not to mention, the central heating and air conditioning system in many people’s homes have break downs because of the drastic changing from heating to air conditioning all of the time. This will all happen between October and late November right before Thanksgiving. What I suggest to reduce the risk of a heating and air conditioning system break down is to buy yourself a portable space heater to use in the night. That way you do not have to run your central heating system and save both money and life on your central heat and a/c unit. This is what I finally ended up doing after all the back and fourth caused my HVAC unit to break down last year. I will not let something like that happen ever again!
