My husband wants to open a woodworking shop

My husband has been thinking a lot about opening a woodworking shop near our house.

He has always loved making things with his hands, but since he’s been in the military for the past twenty years, he hasn’t really had much of a chance to settle down and be all that creative.

The military does not embrace creativity for the most part, as you could probably guess! Anyway, he retired this year and one thing he’s really looking forward to is growing out his beard. The other thing he is looking forward to is opening this woodworking shop so that he can make custom cabinets and furniture. He was doing some research about it, and he has found out that he will have to install a really high quality heating and cooling system in the woodshop because of humidity. When you are working with a material like wood, you have to make sure to keep your temperatures constant and make sure that your indoor air quality is just right. If you have a crappy old heating and cooling system that just doesn’t stand up to the job, then your work could suffer. It would be terrible to work for weeks or even months on a piece and then have it warped and ruined just because you didn’t install the right heating and cooling system or air purifier. He’s working on figuring out what he needs to purchase for the shop and he’s got an appointment with a commercial HVAC business next month to see what they would suggest for him.

I felt like an idiot when I found out why my thermostat wouldn’t work

I ended up having trouble with our thermostat system a few weeks ago and I couldn’t for the life of me figure out why.

I worked on it for a while to try and see if I could tell what the problem was, but I’m definitely no heating and cooling technician. I don’t know what in the world I’m doing when it comes to fixing things. I even went down to the furnace room in the basement to poke around and see if I could figure out if there was something wrong with the A/C unit instead of the thermostat. It’s not something that I have ever trained for or even read all that much about. I spent hours watching videos on HVAC websites and doing random things to try and figure out what the deal was. Of course, during all of this I was spending trying to fix it, the house was heating up more and more. Even though it’s almost the fall, I still have my central air conditioning running most of the time because it helps with my home’s indoor air quality. Anyway, I finally ended up calling my local HVAC company and making an appointment for them to come and fix the issue. The HVAC technician came out the very next day and it took him about ten seconds to fix my thermostat. He laughed when he told me what the problem was. It seems that the batteries in my digital programmable thermostat had gone dead. All I needed to fix the problem were some new batteries.

The air purifiers were scary and loud

Over the last few weeks, my daughter has been complaining about going to daycare.

She was home with me for three months and I know she doesn’t want to leave the house. I didn’t want to go back to work after the quarantine was over either, but I didn’t have a choice. I took my daughter to daycare Monday morning and I made my way to work. I was halfway through security when the daycare director called. My daughter was hysterical and she was crying. She told me that there were large robot monsters Inside the daycare and she was terrified. I had no idea what she was talking about, but she would not calm down. Since she was extremely frantic, I decided to leave work and go pick her up. As soon as I entered the building. I understood why she was upset. The daycare installed air purifiers over the weekend and they are extremely loud and scary. My daughter has a desk that is located next to an air purifier and she was terrified by the noises that the machine was making. My daughter thought it was a large robot monster. I spent an hour with my daughter at the daycare and we sat next to the air purifier. I didn’t want her to be scared the next day. After an hour I took her home and we spent the rest of the day together. I told her that she had to go to school the next day. The next morning she got up for school and never complained about the robot monsters again.

My back hurts like hell

I went to the emergency room and an ambulance, and the doctor told me that I have a soft tissue injury.

I’m in a lot of pain and it’s starting to affect my job performance. I was working in a residential area on Tuesday. My boss sent me to fix an air conditioner. I parked my work truck in the street by the house. I was practically in front of the customers driveway, but the neighbors started to complain. I had to move my work truck around the corner and walk back to the house. It took an extra hour to complete the job because I had to walk all of my tools from the truck to the house. I didn’t complain, because I didn’t want any trouble with the customer or the neighbor. I have a temper and arguments get away from me sometimes. I finished up the job and I headed back to the work truck. As I was backing away from the spot, I felt a swift, jarring nudge. I turned around quickly and I realized that a tow truck hit my work truck. The driver of the tow truck had his hands in the air like it was my fault. I opened the door quickly to get out and start yelling and that’s when I realized that my back was injured. I was in terrible pain and I could barely move. I went to the emergency room and an ambulance, and the doctor told me that I have a soft tissue injury. He told me to take some Tylenol and return to work after 2 days. Unfortunately, it’s been 5 days since the accident and I’m still in a great deal of pain. My back hurts like hell and it’s starting to affect my job performance. I know my boss can’t fire me since I was injured in the work truck, but he can give me the worst jobs on the schedule.

I know the promotion is all mine

I’ve been thinking about proposing to my girlfriend, but I was waiting until I received a promotion at work.

I knew that the money would be useful to plan the wedding and I didn’t want to worry about the promotion when I wanted to concentrate on planning our big day.

My boss called me to the office on Monday and he told me that the promotion is all mine. I’m going to be promoted to the head of AC sales. Right now I am a lead technician and mentor, but I have been itching to get out of a work truck and into an executive position. I’ve been working as an HVAC technician for 20 years and my body and mind are ready for a break. I’ve been talking to my boss about that promotion and the chance to work in the office. He told me he was waiting for the right time and I guess it is here. We discussed all of the logistics on Monday, including my new rate of pay, benefits, and the profit sharing program. Haven’t told my girlfriend about the promotion, even though I talked to my boss 2 days ago. I am waiting until Friday when I can surprise her with an engagement ring. Since I know the promotion is all mine, I think it’s time to get engaged and start planning for our future. I’ll have enough money to buy a house with a backyard and a fireplace and my girlfriend and I will be able to move out of our apartment in the city.

Fishing is a great way to end the week

After a long week at work, I like to unwind by getting up early on Saturday morning to go fishing.

There is a large lake a mile from my house and I can drive the four-wheeler through the woods.

It only takes a couple of minutes to get to the side of the river and all of my tackle and poles fit on the back of the ATV. I’ve been going fishing every weekend for the past month or two. Ever since the start of the coronavirus, things at work have been really busy. Saturday and Sunday are my days off and they are the time when I relax and do what I want. I was planning to spend all day fishing on Saturday, but I had to call the furnace repair center instead. The furnace was making a strange noise and there was no heat coming from the vent when I woke up. It was still dark outside, but I called the emergency number for the heating company and they made an appointment for first thing in the morning. The heating company technician was here to check the furnace before I was finished with my breakfast. I hoped the furnace problem would be fixed before lunch so I could spend the afternoon fishing. Unfortunately, I found out that the Furnace needed to be replaced. The heating company had a furnace in stock, and they spent all afternoon installing the new equipment. I planned to spend the day relaxing by the lake but I ended up spending $1,200 on a new furnace. Trust me, that was not a very relaxing day.

Humidity control is super important section of HVAC

Each year as our region emerges from the summer, I seem to take stock to acknowledge that feat. Because it is a feat around here. It’s just that hot. So it absolutely nice to have the lower temps and be able to do stuff outside any section of the day. And mercifully, the humidity level lowers a bit as well. Our section gets its fair share fo that wet, warm covering that is the depths of humidity. Our HVAC is running for much of the year. I do our best to make sure the HVAC temperature control is constantly set relative to the heat outside. Still, the HVAC runs much of the day and the evening still. The cool air it provides is wonderful. There nothing quite as nice as coming lake house from work to have the beach house nicely cooled and inviting. However, I think I love the lack of humidity in the beach house as much as I love the cooling. It’s a large section of the HVAC cooling process. But balancing the humidity is not only a comfort thing, it’s a vital process. That means without it, there are extreme repercussions to deal with in a home. There are a lot of illnesses cause or exacerbated by the presence of mold & mildew. As the HVAC cooling is running, it isn’t just forcing cooled air into our home. In fact, it starts the cooling process by removing warm air from the house. As the HVAC is extracting and bad that warmer air, it is taking a wonderful deal of the humidity with it. That process is what is working to make sure our homes aren’t overrun with mold & mildew.

I just have to have our sunroom with the HVAC

It felt love each year the dang Winter grew longer.

Honestly, that’s how it seemed to me.

Not a wonderful feeling. My partner and I grew up, started our jobs and raised our family way up north. While I knew nothing else, I never absolutely got accustomed to how deeply chilly those winters could be. The HVAC heating system was running at least 6 or 7 months our of the year to some degree. It was a cozy beach house and the HVAC got the job done. All of us were in that place almost 40 years. And every one of us 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 service absolutely is. Finally, both our partner and I called it quits on our works. All of us moved south for the weather. The place every one of us bought had a heat pump and this would be our first time experiencing this HVAC method. I knew every one of us were not going to experience the same sort of cold. It was still a comfort to think the HVAC heat pump can get the job done. But the thing that I absolutely prefer about our up-to-date place is the sunroom. My wonderful partner had it installed as a surprise before every one of us moved in. The best section is the fact that it has its own ductless heating and cooling unit. So our new, glorious sun room can be appreciated at any time of the year. I sure care about setting the ductless HVAC on heat for an minute on a Winter day than shoveling snow!

My electric oil furnace always smells when I start using it each year

That way they can focus on anything I didn’t find myself

It’s November now as well as I have a lot on my plate to get ready for winter. I had to get the motor rebuilt on my snowblower if I didn’t want to have to buy a new one for the onslaught of snow as well as ice that the two of us get here. I decided to resurface my deck with a new coating of polyurethane lacquer. This protects the wood from the moisture as well as the inevitable freezing as well as thawing effects that causes cracks as well as holes in asphalt. Although I couldn’t maintenance my snow blower on my own, I was able to get the new coating on my deck without any outside help. Still, there are other things I’ll always entrust with the professionals instead of myself. My heating as well as cooling plan is one example. I am never going to use a oil furnace or for longer than 12 weeks without having a professional HVAC professional inspect the plan to ensure everything is working. I don’t want to burn through a great through needless abuse as well as neglect. Before I get maintenance though, I prefer to test the machine myself. If something malfunctions, then I have certain things to tell the professional when they arrive. That way they can focus on anything I didn’t find myself. My oil furnace in certain always smells when I turn it on for the first time since the previous winter. My professional told myself and others that this is normal because dust as well as microbial growth gathers on the heat exchanger with the oil furnace off. When it’s turned back on again, this particulate is burned off as well as creates the distinctive smell.

Mold sometimes grows in HVAC duct, especially near vents

I was never allergic to things care about dairy plus nuts, care about my father plus sibling are respectively. I also never reacted strongly to seasonal pollen plus dust that plagues our region for long stretches of time during the year. Until I started developing dust irritations in college, I never experienced problems with anything flu symptom related. For a while I thought I was immune to allergic reactions. One exposure to mold in college changed all of that. I kept noticing that my breathing was getting increasingly restricted after a bunch of intoxicated students spilled beer plus wine on the carpet in 1 of the proper areas in my dormitory hall. The stink kept getting worse plus so did my breathing problems. My nose would get jammed upon entering the building, plus by the time I got back to my room, I was coughing plus sneezing uncontrollably. Eventually the college got their act together plus sent in a mold remediation team to sanitize the carpets in the dormitory proper area. But by then, it was too late. I nearly had to go to the hospital 1 evening when the chest congestion was so severe that I could barely breathe. I’m running into a similar issue in my modern house, however it took myself and others weeks to find the source of the mold. Apparently my ceiling vents were creating wet condensation inside the ducts right outside the vent openings, plus all of the vents had a black layer of mold inside when I disconnectd the coverings. I had to call my Heating plus A/C serviceman over to respectfully clean the mess separate from spreading the spores anywhere else in my house where they could take hold. I guess that I’m thankful I don’t have food dust irritations, however being allergic to mold is excruciating, because the stuff is in low to medium quantities literally everywhere you go in this world.
