Living, working and essentially not leaving my house for a year during the pandemic was an eye opener in more ways than one.

I guess all of those years of being at the office all the time sort of gave me a stilted perspective of my homelife.

My work demands a lot of hours inside the zone controlled HVAC of our office. That’s the way it is when you are responsible for an entire company. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. But leaving that zone controlled HVAC comfort to try and work from home was a big wake up call. All of us inside the house was an interesting situation. My boys are both highschool age and good kids. The woman I’m lucky to call my partner is lovely and exactly the right person for me. But I’d never experienced this much time inside with all of them and the dogs and cats before. It became pretty clear that I needed a place where it was quiet to work and to think. Unfortunately, that was a tough order to fill since there just wasn’t much room. I could take over the basement but that was a rec room really and I wasn’t messing that up. So I called the HVAC company to have them add a ductless heat pump to the attic. Our attic is finished and all it needed was some residential HVAC to be a serviceable space. Well that ductless heat pump made this space more than serviceable. Even though I’m back in the zone controlled HVAC of the office, I still use my attic space to be alone or just to be quiet.

My wife and I had sort of halfway planned this addition to our house.

When we bought this house, we both thought it would have been the perfect place had there been a really sweet master suite.

But it didn’t. However, this place was right on our budget, had new HVAC equipment and where we wanted to raise our family. Still, we knew that if we had three kids, we’d definitely have to add onto this house. The kid total did hit three and our girls shared a room until the oldest one was set to go into 7th grade. That’s when we decided to add value, space and additional heating and cooling equipment to our home. The addition we put on was something we had considered and designed over and over through the years. We ended up just nailing it though. The master suite came with it’s own balcony and small deck that opened up through beautiful french doors. There was also a ductless heat pump in our master suite. This was because we didn’t really want to replace heating and cooling equipment that had another 15 years left in it. The ductless heat pump is amazing and suits the space just perfectly. Plus, we’re able to customize our heating and cooling according to our specific HVAC needs. And we didn’t stop there. The master suite also has a phenomenal master bath with a giant garden tub and two vanities for the pair of us. Plus, there’s a space heater built in for the master bath that keeps it extra toasty warm.

Some people like to go door-to-door to sell things, and some people love opening the door to these visitors and having a chat with them.

I however don’t care for people coming to my house and trying to sell me things, I’ll make an exception if it is some cute kids selling cookies.

Today, some guy I didn’t know came up to my door and knocked. He was dressed all fancy and had what looked like some HVAC products placed on the porch next to him, with some air filters neatly tucked under his arm. When I opened the door he greeted me and asked if I would be interested in a free air filter? I agreed, I don’t turn down free. He then explained that he was the owner of a new HVAC business just down the road and was going around and meeting all the new people. He then asked if I would be interested in any heating and cooling products, he gestured with his hand and showed me some window air conditioning systems and a few HEPA filters, and even a portable space heater. I saw the window air conditioner and knew that it was something that I had been needing for quite some time. When he saw me look interested in the window air conditioning system he gave me a nice discount on it. I decided to go ahead and purchase it right then and there. It was a good thing too, because that window a/c has been excellent for my home. The guy gave me his business card to his heating and air conditioning company and I am going to go and check them out this weekend.

If there is one thing that I really love about having a modern heating and a/c system, it is all of the benefits that come with it.

I don’t mean to brag but I have a top of the line heating and air conditioning system.

It is because it is so well made that I rarely worry about it ever breaking down on me. However, sometimes there are exceptions and one day when I was going to relax I went to turn the air on, I opened the app on my phone to adjust the temperature since I have a smart thermostat but nothing happened. I figured the app was glitching and so I went over to the thermostat and attempted to change it manually but nothing happened. What was going on? Why was it not working? I knew I would need to call a heating and cooling guy to come out here and service the problem. The following morning I had a professional HVAC technician come out to my house and examine my heating and air conditioning unit. It was upon inspection that he realized that the HVAC unit had become severely clogged by stuff outside. When I looked at the outdoor heating and a/c unit I saw what he meant. It was full of sticks, leaves, and all sorts of debris! Once the heating and air conditioning professional removed the clog from my heating and cooling unit he instructed me to try and turn it on again. I did as asked and went inside and turned on the air conditioner with the thermostat. Success! It worked. Now I have a working heating and cooling system again.

The first thing that comes to mind when you think of window tinting is outside cars, buildings, and homes.

What about window tinting INSIDE a commercial building? You may benefit from professional window tinting services if you own a commercial building in which the offices are partitioned off with glass walls.

Your work may require a great deal of privacy, such as being an attorney or financial advisor. Then again, maybe you simply don’t want everyone to see you eat your lunch! Either way, our window tinting provides the privacy you need. Even more important than your privacy is the privacy of your clients. They may not want to feel like they’re in a fishbowl while others walk by your office. Maybe they are there on very personal matters, as in the case of an attorney. They might be upset and not want others to see them upset. Window tint will make your glass wall appear as if the glass itself has been tinted. In addition to using the best products, we do so with the utmost professionalism and expertise. The window tint we offer will enhance the look of your office. Window tinting can be done after hours so that you, your employees, and your clients are not disturbed. Your office will look as if we were never there in the morning, except for the beautifully tinted glass. The project may take one day or more, depending on the size of the office and the number of glass partitions.

Of any of the local Heating as well as A/C contractors, this a single is certainly the best because he takes care of his people.

Much to my surprise, the air filter was almost pristine, as well as must have been upgraded just before we arrived.

Since we were renting the lakeside house for an entire week, we did a lot of research on it. Of course we studied the website as well as the pictures, but we also drove up there to see it in person! It’s a three hour drive from home, but in this case we felt it was worth the extra time, everything we saw as well as study about the house made it seem perfect… but there was a single major issue that was invisible, as well as we didn’t realize it until it was too late. Although the central Heating as well as A/C system seemed to labor perfectly, the air quality was dismal, as well as we could not figure out why! The first night we tried our best to soldier through it, but the air quality instantaneously took a toll on my wifey, and she was sneezing as well as coughing, so the first thing I did was to check the air filter. Much to my surprise, the air filter was almost pristine, as well as must have been upgraded just before we arrived. So if it wasn’t the air filter then what was causing such an issue with the air in the house? Finally I decided to get out my tool box as well as remove a single of the grates from the outside of an air vent. Inside the HVAC duct was completely coated with years worth of dust as well as dander. Although the air filter had been changed recently, it seemed that no a single had ever cleaned out the HVAC ducts since the house was first built. There might have even been some small critters residing in the HVAC duct.

My system was easy – I would apply at a rival company, as well as then hopefully use that to pressure my boss into giving myself and others a raise.

I love my job, but the spend my money is garbage.

I hoped that by threatening to leave the boss would make a counter offer to keep myself and others here. My system blew up in my face, as well as my boss patted myself and others on the back as well as wished myself and others well in my future endeavors. This is a bummer, because I don’t want to labor for a major Heating as well as A/C corporation. On the other hand, the offer they made myself and others is pretty amazing, so I would be an idiot to pass it over. By working for a major Heating as well as A/C company I will lose a lot of the freedom I get at my current job, not to mention they drug test so I will have to figure out how to pass that. It’s too late to go back, though, because if I stay at my aged Heating as well as A/C job my boss knows that he will never have to give myself and others a raise ever. It’s hard to do your best labor if you guess that there will never be any money, so if I had it to do over again I would never have applied to the major Heating as well as A/C corporation. If I can pass the drug test, I will start off with a base spend my money almost twice what I’m making now, so any concessions I have to make to the new Heating as well as A/C company will entirely be worth it. I will certainly miss my aged job, though.

“Do what you enjoy and you never labor a afternoon in your life.” This is a lie! I do what I enjoy all the time, and I still have to labor to spend money the bills! What I enjoy to do is write horror stories and record them for my podcast, and a Scary Home Companion.

I spend untold hours working on this show, and it really makes me glad, however of course, it doesn’t spend money me a dime! All this time and effort comes from passion, and I am addicted to it… That said, I still need to labor at least 45 hours a week for the Heating and A/C business, or else I can’t afford to chase my passion.

I don’t mean to sound ungrateful, because the Heating and A/C business I labor for pays me unquestionably well, and also offers a generous benefits package. Of any of the local Heating and A/C businesss, this one is really the best because he takes care of his people, however but if I had my druthers, I would labor for any Heating and A/C business I would hole up in my office and spend my days writing and recording. As far as afternoon tasks go, being an Heating and A/C tech is a great way to make a living! When I clock out at the end of the afternoon I can forget about heating and cooling systems and focus 100% on the show, because I never have to take my labor apartment with me. One afternoon I hope to save up enough money from this Heating and A/C task to retire early, and then my whole life can be about my show.

I got an offer from a major corporation to join their workforce.

I had to admit, they put together a legitimately charming package.

I would get much better health and dental insurance than I currently have, plus a 401K, something I currently don’t have at all. There is a liberal amount of paid leave time, as well, besides the big jump in spend money from what I am making now. They couldn’t be much more generous, quite frankly, however I’m still not sure I will take the offer! Right now I am one of three employees at a small, outlaw Heating and A/C company, and even though the spend money sucks, I legitimately enjoy my task. When I say “outlaw Heating and A/C company” I mean that we are not one of the major companies. In this neighborhood there are a lot of big time corporate contracts, and several landlords and business owners signs exclusive deals with a unique Heating and A/C company to handle all of their needs. The two of us don’t have any contracts, we operate outside the lines, and pick up all the little Heating and A/C tasks the big boys can’t or won’t do. If you need heating device for your cannabis crops over the winter, we are the boys to call. If your survivalist cult needs a geothermal heat pump for your underground bunker, we are the boys to call. If you need Heating and A/C labor however want to spend money money and not leave a paper trail, we are the boys to call! The Heating and A/C corporation can keep their money, because I enjoy being one of the outlaws.
