My Husband Learned How To Clean The Air Ducts

My husband was ordered to work from home several months ago.

He hated the idea of working from home because he enjoyed his routine at the office, and he didn’t want to make any changes.

After a few weeks though, he grew to enjoy being at home all day long. He could work at his own pace, make lunch straight from the fridge, and he had access to his own bathroom. I think he also loved how much extra free time he had. Once he was done with his work, he was done for the day. With all the extra time he had, he decided to take on odd challenges around the house. He detailed his car, planted a garden, and he even washed out the air ducts and every single air vent throughout the house. When he first mentioned the air duct cleaning, I was skeptical. I knew the ductwork needed to be cleaned every now and then, but I assumed it could only be done by an HVAC professional. I addressed this assumption with my husband, and he assured me that he’d do it right. For several days, I found him researching air duct cleaning on his computer after he was finished working. Then, he started cleaning out the air ducts. It was a mess, but he cleaned up every speck of dust and debri as he was working. I must say, I was really impressed with my husband’s ability to learn something new about air duct cleaning and then apply the skill so wonderfully. I hope he cleans our air ducts forever.

A free replacement, that will work!

I’d heard horror stories in the past about cheap replacement companies messing up the replacement, causing homeowners to repurchase a really new gas furnace

When it came to my last Heating, Ventilation, and A/C appointment, the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C professional provided myself and others the disappointing news that I was waiting for, he told myself and others that my gas furnace was a goner and I’d need to have it upgraded out of the blue, however i’d been anticipating this news for a few weeks, since my gas furnace had been running inefficiently and barely heating my home! This provided myself and others the chance to save money for the new gas furnace rather than tapping into my savings account, then although I had money saved for the heated gas furnace, I didn’t have money for the replacement, which was another large sum of money. The Heating, Ventilation, and A/C professional who provided myself and others the disappointing news about my gas furnace wouldn’t be able to install it for free, even though he advocated that I pick up the gas furnace from a large hardware store, because they were known for offering free replacement. I took his suggestion and looked them up online. A gas furnace was a pressing investment, so I didn’t want to risk having it installed by someone who I did not trust and cause even more damage. I’d heard horror stories in the past about cheap replacement companies messing up the replacement, causing homeowners to repurchase a really new gas furnace. I needed free replacement, although I didn’t want to have to settle. After looking at the hardware store’s website and noticing that there was nothing however positive reviews, I went ahead and purchased my new gas furnace and busy an Heating, Ventilation, and A/C professional to repair it without any cost! I’m blissful I was able to save the money on my new gas furnace’s replacement.

During one of my last Heating and Air Conditioning appointment, the Heating and Air Conditioning professional gave myself and others the terrible news that I was waiting for, however he had informed me that my oil furnace was a goner and I’d need to have it updated abruptly, and i’d been anticipating this news for a few weeks, since our oil furnace had been running inefficiently and barely heating our home… This gave myself and others the option to save up some cash for the new oil furnace instead of tapping into our savings account, although I had money saved for the oil furnace, I didn’t have money for the upgrade, which was another big sum of money.

The Heating and Air Conditioning repair gentleman who gave me and others the terrible news about our oil furnace wouldn’t be able to install it for free, even though he had already proposed that I buy the oil furnace from a big hardware store, because they were known for offering free upgrades.

I took his suggestion and looked them up online. An oil furnace was a big investment, so I was not looking to risk having it installed by someone insufficient and cause more injury. I’d heard horror stories in the past about cheap upgrade companies messing up the upgrade, causing homeowners to repurchase an entirely new oil furnace. I was hoping for a free upgrade, despite the fact that I didn’t want to settle. After looking at the hardware store’s website and noticing that there was nothing but positive reviews, I went ahead and purchased our new oil furnace and tied up an Heating and Air Conditioning professional to come maintenance it for free! I’m ecstatic I was given the chance to save the money on our new oil furnace’s upgrade.

I Needed a New Furnace With Free Installation

During my last HVAC appointment, the HVAC professional gave me the bad news that I was waiting for.

He told me that my furnace was a goner and I’d need to have it replaced quickly.

New website for the growing HVAC repair business

For the past 10 years, I have been working in the HVAC repair business. I became a repair technician when I was 20 years old and now I am approaching almost 30. Last year I decided to start my own HVAC repair business. I knew it was time to do something for the future. My wife was very supportive of my decision. Her dad gave me a loan to start the company. It was a small loan, but it was enough money to get started. I paid her dad back all of the money plus 3.5% interest in the first 10 months of business. The HVAC repair business has been steadily growing over the last couple of months. I have a Facebook page that has a ton of followers. I also offer helpful tips and I answer questions on the Facebook page all of the time. My wife and I decided it was time to get a website for our growing HVAC repair business. My wife contacted a couple of web design companies in town. All of them wanted a ton of money to complete the website and manage our contact. My wife started looking online to see if she could find someone cheaper. There are a thousand different web designers online and a lot of them were willing to do the work for half the price. My wife and I picked a desire for the website and she started working on things last weekend. The website is going to be done in three weeks. My wife and I cannot wait to see the results.

Air conditioning maintenance

I tried to say no to the request, but my boss forced my hand

Five days each week I work as an HVAC repair technician.

I enjoy the work. Every day is quite different. I honestly never know what problem I will face throughout the day and I like that mystery. Repairing heating and air conditioning units is like putting a puzzle together. I happen to think it is a lot of fun to work in the HVAC repair industry. Unfortunately, some days can be a lot longer than others. Summer is one time during the year when we are always very busy. Not heat and humidity can be overpowering and a lot of people end up with A/C problems. Some homeowners don’t realize that the air conditioner will only cool the house about 30 degrees lower than the outside temperatures. When it’s 110° outside, there is absolutely no way that the A/C can reach a temperature of 62 degrees. If you turn the thermostat down, you end up with problems that keep the air conditioner from working properly. That’s why summer is usually very busy. My boss wanted me to work late on Tuesday, but I knew that my girlfriend was waiting for me at home. We were going to have dinner and we had reservations for 6 p.m. I knew I would not have time to go home and shower if I stayed to help someone finish their work. Unfortunately, my boss reminded me that I wanted a promotion. It was hard to say no to his request when he reminded me that I want a raise and a new title.

Sometimes you have to do something extraordinary

It is important to live life to the absolute fullest. I learned that lesson when my parents were killed in a plane crash. I was very young when the horrific accident occurred and it made me realize how short life can be. I grew up in foster care with three brothers and eight sisters. I was the youngest person in the bunch. I played sports like baseball, football, and winter hockey. It was fun growing up with siblings, even though I missed my parents a great deal. After I was done with school, I decided to take a trek across the country so I could see all of the landscape and architecture. I learned a lot about life during the experience. I spent a lot of time sleeping in a tent and I was forced to brave the cold air, rain, and hot desert days. I performed odd jobs from time to time so I had enough money for food. I survived on trail mix, beef jerky and water for the first three months. I only stayed in a hotel one or two times when the weather was extremely horrible and I had a couple of extra dollars in my pocket. I remember one of those nights in particular. The outdoor temperatures were in the single digits and I walked for miles to the nearest town so I could stay in a hotel. The hotel had a really nice heater in the room. I turned on the heater to the highest setting and I slept like a baby. The heater was still on full blast in the morning when I woke up. It was very difficult to leave the hotel when it was so cold outside, but I only had enough money for one night.

The HVAC system at our office is broken

I work in a really large law firm downtown, and we have just recently opened back up since all of the shutdowns last year.

It’s been really crazy to try and adapt to working from home and then back to the office environment again.

One of the best parts of working from home was the fact that I could set the heating and cooling system to whatever temperature I wanted it to be, whenever I felt like it. Whenever I was working at the office downtown, there always seemed like there was something going wrong with the HVAC system in the building. I remember feeling sorry for the building maintenance guy in the building, because people were constantly complaining to him about the air conditioning being turned down too low in the summer or up too high. And then, of course, in the winter, people complained to him about the heating being set too low or too high, too. He just couldn’t please everyone all of the time and I know that it was stressful for him. When I was working at home, I didn’t have to worry about any of that, though. It was nice to be able to keep the temperature settings at home wherever I wanted them and I could adjust the heating or the A/C whenever I happened to feel like it. Now, though, we are back to work in the office building and it’s right back to the way it used to be. I would have thought that the building owners would have had the HVAC unit upgraded during all of that time that we weren’t working, but I guess that was just wishful thinking on my part.
