Did you hear the story about the Heating as well as A/C tech who typically wore lipstick when fixing an A/C unit?

He said that every time they sent this supplier out to labor on an air conditioner, they had lipstick on.

My father was typically the one who would come lake house with the wildest of stories. He told us everything that happened at work, just to make us laugh. He worked for the local Heating as well as A/C business. One day he was telling how they sent out the beefiest Heating as well as A/C tech they had, to labor on a furnace. He called with the emergency number on our cell phones. He was having a rough time in the basement. When dad got there, he said he couldn’t help however start laughing so hard that he had tears rolling down his cheeks. The tech was stuck between the furnace as well as the wall as well as he couldn’t budge. Apparently his shirt had gotten connected to a nail sticking out of the wall. This was our normal conversation during dinner. Last week, he came lake house as well as asked if he had ever told us the story about the Heating as well as A/C tech who typically wore lipstick when fixing an A/C unit? All of us all looked a bit skeptical. All of us had never heard of a man who wore lipstick as well as both of us couldn’t wait for the story. He said that every time they sent this supplier out to labor on an air conditioner, they had lipstick on. He said the story spread abruptly as well as pretty much everyone wanted to see the tech who wore lipstick. He said he was laughing, as typically, because he knew who the tech was. When multiple Heating as well as A/C techs got out of the service van to ‘help’ the tech, pretty much everyone blushed. The Heating as well as A/C tech with lipstick, was the new female tech they had hired just a couple weeks earlier.

Look for the daffodils before you call.

I couldn’t suppose he told myself and others that.

On the first moderate day, I have a hard time not picking up the phone as well as calling the Heating as well as A/C business. I want to have our air conditioner component serviced as soon as possible. I don’t want to take the opportunity that Wintertide is going to be over as well as our A/C component hasn’t been serviced. I knew our air conditioner component was getting older. My dad typically said that it isn’t if you are going to need a new Heating as well as A/C system, however when you will need to get it. I typically worry that if I don’t have the air conditioner component serviced early, it may be too late. I called our sibling in the middle of February as well as I asked if he could do the servicing for me. Ever since he opened his own Heating as well as A/C business, I have been using him to do all of our Heating as well as A/C servicing for me. He told myself and others that he was too stressed with working on heating systems to worry about air conditioner units at that moment. I was flabbergasted when he told myself and others that. He wouldn’t come over to the lake house because it was too early? I asked him when he thought it would be time. He sarcastically told myself and others to wait until the daffodils were fully bloomed before I called him again. I couldn’t suppose he told myself and others that. I was fuming when I hung up the phone. I turned on the cable set as well as a news update came on with an update on the weather. They were enjoying a storm that was forming south of us, as well as it was expected to bring us blizzard conditions. Maybe I was calling about the A/C component a bit too early.

She said her hair was falling out from the heat.

My kid wanted a puppy since she had been multiple years old.

Last year, both of us purchased her a puppy for her birthday.

She was more than five as well as both of us thought it would be something for her to grow up with as well as be responsible for. Now that Christmas is on its way, so is the chilly air. My fiance is complaining about all of the dog hair that is on the sofa as well as the carpeting. She is typically pulling out the vacuum to get rid of more dog hair. Last month she told myself and others to change the air filter. It was getting to the point where both of us had dog hair floating in the air. It seemed to be coming out of the air vents. Our kid came downstairs, as well as she was telling myself and others how the dog’s hair was start to fall out. She said the furnace was too moderate for the dog to be shedding. I was start to wonder why both of us had so much dog hair in the air since it wasn’t summer. Summer is the normal time for a dog to shed. I looked at the puppy as well as sure enough he had thin spots of hair. I went downstairs to change the furnace air filter as well as I pulled the air vents to look inside. I called the Heating as well as A/C company as well as asked them if they could disinfect the ductwork this time of year. They promised to send someone out the next week. In the meantime, I had to figure out why the dog was shedding. It wasn’t much of a mystery when I saw our kid combing the dog’s hair with the thinning comb.

The gathering ruined our Heating plus Air Conditioning

The whole Heating plus Air Conditioning needed to be cleaned plus repaired

Back when I first started college, some friends plus I were so happy to be particularly on or own plus independent for the first time that the people I was with and I decided to throw a bit of a gathering. It was an exciting plus somewhat frightening realization however the people I was with and I had already decided that the people I was with and I would do our best to face it head on plus make the most of the experience, plus enjoy any group of college kids, the people I was with and I brought tons of food to snack on plus invite all the people the people I was with and I knew. The people I was with and I had long since debated where to have the gathering plus eventually it was agreed upon that the people I was with and I could all celebrate at our current apartment. While the gathering the people I was with and I had was a substantial success, it didn’t come without its consequences I recognize if you get a bunch of half-drunk rowdy people all packed into a 1 kitchen condo there is bound to be some troubles. I had food plus drinks that had spilled all over our nice plus current a/c, the furnace wasn’t spared either plus the whole thing was just 1 big mess. The whole Heating plus Air Conditioning needed to be cleaned plus repaired. I called the building service people the following afternoon to send out the Heating plus Air Conditioning serviceman so he could take a look at our Heating plus Air Conditioning equipment plus hopefully get it repaired. When the heating plus cooling professional came out plus took a look I was told the damage wasn’t too terrible however it would need a fine plus thorough cleaning. Thankfully after it was cleaned well, I serviced it by turning on the a/c on the temperature control plus all was fine again.

I forgot to change the air filter

When the A/C stopped blowing cold air, I certainly didn’t think I would be the cause of the problem.

After all, I moved into the apartment and plenty of people lived there before me.

I figured it might be time to upgrade the system. I was experiencing a loss of cold air over the last couple of weeks and I knew it was related. I called the landlord and I told the guy that I didn’t have any cold air. I told him that the problem has been occurring for a couple of weeks. The landlord called the HVAC repair company and they sent a guy to look at the system. It only took a minute before the guy found the problem. The ductwork was filled with dirt and dust because I never changed the air filter over the last two months. The landlord told me when I signed the lease that I was responsible for changing the air filter every month. When I found out that the AC issue was due to my negligence, I knew the landlord was going to make me pay for the repair. Sure enough, I received a bill from the HVAC company in the mail this week. The $159 fee is my responsibility to pay. I would call my landlord and argue about the charge, but I know it was my responsibility to change the air filter. I didn’t follow the directions and the $150 charge will be a constant reminder not to make the same mistake in the future. I won’t forget to change the air filter again.

 

HVAC tune-up

The storm was catching up to us

My brother and I took a road trip last year to visit the canyon.

We spent 17 hours driving from one destination to the other.

On our way back from the trip, the AC in the car stopped working. It was very warm outside, so we decided to roll down the windows. While we were driving through the desert, it wasn’t a big deal that the AC was broken. We had plenty of fresh air and a cool breeze while we were driving. Once we hit the mountains, we ran into a huge storm. We could see the storm in the distance and it was catching up to us. My brother and I knew that if the storm caught up we would no longer be able to drive with the windows down. Even though there was a steady downpour heading in our direction, the outdoor temperature was still in the 90s. My brother tried to speed up and go faster so the storm wouldn’t catch up. Unfortunately, there was a traffic accident at the bottom of the mountain and we were sitting in traffic for an hour. It started pouring outside and we had to roll up the windows. Since the AC wasn’t working, I started to get very warm and humid inside the car. It was absolutely miserable, but we couldn’t roll down the windows to cool off. We sat in traffic for a long time before they cleaned up all of that mess from that accident. Thankfully, the storm had passed by the time we left and we had a chance to roll down windows again.

The bank charge was less than I expected

My wife and I found out that we needed a brand new heat pump and air conditioner.

We were hearing a very strange noise coming from the air conditioner and we decided to contact the HVAC contractor. We hoped for a repair, but the HVAC contractor gave us bad news instead. He told us it was necessary to replace the heat pump in the air conditioner. I told my wife and I not to worry because they were having a special on the heat pumps. The guy sent a salesman to talk with us about prices and financing. My wife and I decided to skip the financing and we paid for the entire HVAC unit with our bank account. The total charge on my debit card was supposed to be $6,500. When I checked my bank account a few days later, there was only a single charge from the HVAC contractor for $6,100. I thought there must be some mistake, so I decided to call the company. The lady on the phone told me that they gave me a credit, because they hauled away the old air conditioner and the heat pump. They refurbished the equipment and use it for industrial applications. The old air conditioner was in really good shape, even though the heat pump was not working well. They gave us a $400 credit for the parts that they could use. My wife and I never expected to save money on the HVAC purchase and the $400 credit was a nice surprise. Most of the time it costs a lot more than we think it will.

Roommates boyfriend changes the thermostat

I live with my best friend.

We have been living together since we were eighteen and it has been so much fun. I know that most people say to not live with your best friends, but I think we just got really lucky. We don’t argue about anything because we are typically on the same page about most things. However, there is one thing that has been starting to annoy me for the last few weeks. My best friend has been dating the same guy for about two years now and I think he is great for her. However, he acts like our house is his house and lately it has gotten much worse. I wish that I was able to tell her that it bothers me but I am worried that if I do it will affect our friendship. I guess the thing that annoys me the most is that my roommate’s boyfriend will change the temperature of the thermostat and start to blast the air conditioner when it’s not his house and he doesn’t have to pay for the electric bill each month. I wouldn’t really care about him changing the thermostat if I didn’t notice that it was affecting our bills. I want to say something to him directly but like I said I am a little nervous about it. I hope that if I say something about the air conditioner that I won’t regret it but maybe my roommate wants to know that our bills are getting higher too.

 

 

Heater maintenance

It’s finally getting repaired

Recently I have been doing online grocery shopping for the family, which is a shame because I love the entire shopping experience & picking out our own items to make sure they’re high quality. The reason why I am not shopping in person is because of the outdoor temperature & our car. Since it is summertime, it is going to be hot and humid. The weatherman is predicting the entire month is going to be hot, & the only chance for relief we are going to get is when it rains this week. The rest is just brutal tepid summertime, like usual. My car’s air conditioner is not pouring out cool air, so it feels similar to being outside even while being inside the car. I have been trying to avoid all errands all the time unless it is at night or raining, because of the lack of air conditioner. The only issue I have now is that it is only raining once this week, & at night most of the venues I want to go are long-since closed. I have already decided that I will be getting our car’s air conditioner fixed this upcoming weekend, but until then, I am not doing any errands & dealing with that oppressive heat. I will happily stay at our apartment with our home’s central air conditioner machine, & I swear that I will not leave until it cools down a bit. Thankfully it is getting closer to fall, & the outdoor hot & cold temperatures will start cooling down then, when I can start going out more. Until that happens, I will have to deal with the tepid hot & cold temperatures.

I can’t live like this anymore

If there is one thing I undoubtedly hate, it’s unpredictability and ambiguity.

Recently, our Heating & Air Conditioning component fits the definition of unpredictable and ambiguous. I’m not sure why, but it has been acting up & having a mind of its own all of a sudden. It started about a month ago, suddenly it will be working just fine, & then it will turn off, then on again, then back off. It generally will do this several times a day, & then the next day, it will work perfectly nice the entire day. I undoubtedly can tell you that I hate the unpredictability of this, it drives myself and others crazy! Now I have no amazing plan what to expect, is it going to be nice to myself and others & job for the day, or I think it will completely shut down & refuse to turn on? Or will it be a bit of both? I just never know what’s what. Obviously the air conditioner is shouting loud & clear that something is wrong, & it needs dedicated attention. Although I hate paying more money towards Heating & Air Conditioning related household stuff, I undoubtedly don’t want to live in a constant state of not knowing, so I will report that I already have a Heating & Air Conditioning appointment, & soon a Heating & Air Conditioning specialist will come & look at the heating & cooling system for the family. Until then, I will just have to deal with it. On the brighter side, I have our weeklong holiday next week, & I will get to stay at a 5 star hotel. No air temperature unpredictability there, & I can relax & appreciate myself.
