Once every few weeks I take my wife Jen out on a date night excursion to the bar for some karaoke. The bar hosts a karaoke night once a week, but we can’t get out to party that often. Whenever we can make it, we both take turns singing, we have a lot of drinks, and we try to make the most of our time out. Having three kids makes it difficult to relax and have fun sometimes, and karaoke is always a welcome respite from the stress of parenthood. Last time we went Jen won a prize! We hoped it would be cash, but it was a gift certificate for a local HVAC supply shop. A prize is a prize, so the next day we went to visit the HVAC shop and see what they had for us to choose from. The gift certificate was for $200, which does not go very far in a professional HVAC supply shop! A central HVAC system starts around five thousand bucks, and if you want something like radiant heated floors you better have a lot of money in the bank! For the amount we had to spend our options were limited to space heaters, air purifiers, and dehumidifiers. We decided to get a nice little dehumidifier, hoping that it would work in concert with our climate control system and improve the overall air quality. It wouldn’t affect the temps of the house, of course, but we hoped that by lowering the level of moisture in the air the dehumidifier would enhance the indoor air quality and make it feel more comfortable.
