But the thing that I really love about our new place is the sunroom.
It felt like each year the dang winter grew longer. Honestly, that’s how it seemed to me. Not a great feeling. My husband and I grew up, started our jobs and raised our family way up north. While I knew nothing else, I never really got accustomed to how deeply cold those winters could be. The HVAC furnace was running at least 6 or 7 months our of the year to some degree. It was a cozy house and the HVAC got the job done. We were in that place almost 40 years. And we only replaced the HVAC once! That is getting some value from your HVAC money. Honestly, the longevity of our HVAC is a testament to how important HVAC maintenance really is. Finally, both my husband and I called it quits on our careers. We moved south for the weather. The place we purchased had a heat pump and this would be my first time experiencing this HVAC method. I knew we were not going to experience the same sort of cold. It was still a comfort to know the HVAC heat pump can get the job done. But the thing that I really love about our new place is the sunroom. My wonderful husband had it installed as a surprise before we moved in. The best part is the fact that it has its own ductless heating and cooling unit. So my new, glorious sun room can be enjoyed at any time of the year. I sure prefer setting the ductless HVAC on heat for an hour on a winter morning than shoveling snow!
