I’d never known any other life apart from living down at the coast, I was used to waking up at the edge of the ocean and walking to the beach.
Never in my wildest dreams did I picture myself living in another site, let alone the cold mountainous regions.
But, since life is not set in stone, things change. In high college, we made the choice to go on a skiing trip, and this was my first time seeing snow. I had to confess this felt so different, and the part was so mesmerizing. For some reason, I always felt like moving to that part, which is what I did more than 2 years later, when I purchased a cottage in the area, it was summer. I knew this was the best time to move and get the cottage ready for winter. Plus, I’d get to know the part a little better! The cabin wasn’t that bad; it required some service work. That first week in the area, I had to turn on the cooling system to keep the space cool. But, I started to notice some condensation forming on the windows, and having lived in a coastal part for more than 2 years, I knew there was lots of humidity in this cottage. The best way to get rid of it was to install a whole-home dehumidifier. I got in touch with the HVAC company who had installed the cooling plan in the cottage. The HVAC serviceman who had done the work told me it was nice I’d noticed the condensation early to prevent mold and mildew growing in the cottage. The whole-cottage dehumidifier got rid of the condensation and also made the space more comfortable.
