The idea that I had to replace the HVAC unit sort of eluded me.
But that tends to happen with regard to stuff that I sort of totally take for granted. The heating and cooling in my house is sort of a foregone conclusion in my head. The thermostat is there and is adjusted for more heating or more cooling depending on the season. And it’s always there and the HVAC equipment is always working unless there’s a power outage. It’s been this way for more than 20 years. This HVAC equipment, we sort of inherited as the previous owner had it installed just a year before he sold the house to us. But we signed up for the HVAC service plan right off the bat. And man, did the HVAC professionals ever take good care of us when it came to maintaining our quality heating and air. Perhaps that’s why I just sort of put the heating and cooling at home out of my mind. Other than changing the HVAC air filter once a month and confirming the HVAC maintenance appointment on line, I didn’t worry about the HVAC. So when the HVAC technician told me it was time to get a new heat pump, I was honestly a bit surprised. And I sort of dithered about a while really. But ultimately, I met with the HVAC contractor and we selected the new HVAC technology that would meet our heating and cooling needs. Finally making the decision and getting that thing installed has made such a big difference. The latest in residential HVAC really is something.
