Going on vacation and having an argument with a friend who sets the air conditioner too low

Just yesterday I came home from vacation.

I just got back to work today and I am already swamped with all of the work that I have missed.

On my plane ride I was not looking forward to going back. I was longing for the hot, and sunny beaches again. However I was ready to get home because I cannot stand my boyfriend’s friend. He is very nice at times but is very picky and if he doesn’t get his way he throws a fit. For example the first night that we were all staying in the hotel room he decided to put the thermostat to 62 degrees. I let it slide the first night because I do like sleeping in a colder environment. At home I will set my thermostat to 70 degrees so my air conditioner will kick on right before I go to bed. However when I woke up the next morning since our friend set the thermostat so low I was extremely exhausted. This was because I did not sleep due to the fact of how cold it was, I woke up at least three times during the night shivering. I told him that I was freezing because of the A/C. He just laughed at me cynically. I also said that I did not want the A/C to be set that low again because I wanted to be able to sleep good. He disagreed with me and started arguing and I brought it up that it was unnecessary to set it that low and that he was wasting a lot of energy as well.

Information on Air conditioners

The other day I was looking up information on how to better maintain my air conditioner.

I also wanted to know a little more information because my new central air conditioner was recently installed.

My HVAC provider came to install it and there was no way that I could install it by myself. Plus he didn’t give me a lot of information on it. I was not impressed by the service that I received so I decided to contact another HVAC company that worked on the same brand of HVAC systems. While I was looking up information I found out that pretty much two thirds of the U.S. operates with air conditioners in their homes. Not to mention that air conditioners use about five percent of the electricity in America as well. I also found out that the operation and functionality of HVAC systems are somewhat similar to a person’s refrigerator in their kitchen. This is because a person’s air conditioner uses energy to get the heat from the interior parts of one home to the warm environment air that is outside. This is basically the same thing what a refrigerator does as it is trying to keep the components inside the fridge cool and release any heat that may be inside of the refrigerator to the outside. It was a good thing that I replaced my fifteen year old HVAC system to a modern one. According to the research that I read, by switching to modern systems, it can reduce energy that is produced by twenty to fifty percent.

The principles of heating

I can remember elementary school like it was yesterday.

  • I have always had a good memory but elementary stands out the most to me because of the childhood memories of all of my friends.

Plus I loved going to school around this time. I had the best teachers and kept in touch with one, she was my mentor throughout my entire education. I learned a lot and will always remember my fundamentals thanks to my grade school teachers coming up with songs and sayings to remember certain. I’ll always remember the process of heating in science class. There is conduction, radiation and convection. The other day I had my HVAC technician come to my home to see about updating my HVAC system. He was talking about these three heating processes and went into detail about them. He said that the reason why the heat in my home gets so hot is due to the conduction in the attic’s roof and windows. He said to minimize the heat I could install heat-reflecting roofs and add more insulation. Another way to keep my home cooler in the summer is by keeping my shades down from the sun’s radiation. Therefore I wouldn’t have to turn on my A/C as much. There is convection that can heat the house quickly through my furnace. By having bedrooms upstairs my house seems warmer than my downstairs. With the hot air circulating, my body will take in the heat causing me to feel much more warmer upstairs than downstairs.

The importance of maintenance of an HVAC system and changing the HVAC air filter

Plus he always changes the HVAC air filter, he says that the importance of changing the HVAC air filter is what gets unwanted particles from entering the home, and most importantly, it aids in the efficiency of the HVAC system

The other day I literally cleaned my entire house. There are designated days during the year that I try to do this. Since I have such a busy schedule I never really have time to thoroughly clean my home. At times I really can’t stand living in a dirty home and I can’t stand cleaning. I have finally found a happy medium where I can still live in a clean home. I will clean up after myself but I will not go above and beyond to clean every little surface until the end of the month. Just this past weekend that is exactly what I did. I cleaned my floors, all of the rooms, the gutters and even my HVAC system. I had my HVAC technician come over to do a routine check. The technician will check all of my ductwork to make sure there are no clogs and he cleans them as well. He will check to make sure that the HVAC system isn’t working harder than it should be. Plus he always changes the HVAC air filter, he says that the importance of changing the HVAC air filter is what gets unwanted particles from entering the home, and most importantly, it aids in the efficiency of the HVAC system. My HVAC technician always tells me how things are going with my heating and cooling system. It’s important as well to make sure you find a reliable and trustable HVAC company who is willing to help you. Read reviews and do research so that you know what kind of HVAC company you are hiring.

Living in the south with bugs that live in the air ducts

I have never heard of certain things that occur in the south until I started living there. I never knew that certain southern foods such as grits were such a popular hit. This is because where I used to live up north, there would never be grits in any of the restaurants. I felt somewhat silly when I asked one of my new friends when we went out to breakfast what grits were. Not only are there different types of food, but there is also different types of bugs. There are many different types of spiders and even cockroaches. I have never seen a cockroach before where I lived but that could be mainly because the climate is so cold. I had to call my HVAC technician multiple times to see if there were ways that I could keep out a type of cockroach from living out of my air ducts. It is so disgusting but my HVAC technician has told me that it is pretty popular where I live since they like to nest in the trees that hover over my house. They will find ways into my home and creep into the air ducts. They prefer the air ducts because it is dark and cool in there since I run my air conditioning unit almost all year. My HVAC technician also told me that I could switch out the air registers so that it is somewhat harder for the bugs to get into but if I wanted to remove it entirely I should call the pest control immediately.

Installing air conditioning

For several years my apartment has not had air conditioning.

We have had heat in the winter.

Our apartment usually stays pretty cool. On mornings that it is humid, it is consistently hot. We have a pool that helps us stay cool. We spend several mornings swimming. It is also good exercise. We are getting sleepy of the humid weather. I decided to get air conditioning installed in our home. I called an HVAC business. I do not know much about these systems. They were very helpful. He was glad he called a professional, but many times people let friends or family install the system. These people spend more money in the future on repairs. A professional will provide you the best quality. The possibilities for breakdowns are much less. So they provided me some chances in addition to information. He said that he would need to come to my apartment to measure the size of air conditioning I would need. This is important for the air conditioning to be just right. You do not want the system to get over worked. It is easy to need repairs that way. I busy an appointment for him to come to my house. He came up with a fantastic size for my home. He said he could install it immediately. I was glad I did not have to stay another afternoon in the humid air. He recommended to get tune ups every year. The system can become dusty throughout the year in addition to the winter season time. He could come look at it to make sure it will run properly. Defective parts can be substituted. He assured me I could run it all Summer long.

New home heating

I recently just moved north for a job, however house hunting can be so exhausting.

You can only see so numerous houses before you want to quit. It is an exciting experience at first. You get to look at new houses as well as see which one you want to live in. It was very annoying for me because I could not find a house. I could not find one I wanted to live in. One major thing I did not like was electric heating. When I hear electric I guess of fires. I wanted to avoid that. It seemed that every home my buddy and I looked at was electric heating. I went home one night as well as called an Heating as well as A/C company for information. He told me that electric heating is truly not an issue with fires, and electric heating does not burn anything, then no harmful gases are released. I would never have to worry about harmful fumes getting into my home. He reassured me that this heating system is beneficial. It runs very efficiently. I could spend my savings more for electric! Gas heating is cheaper however less efficient. I was truly starting to guess that electrical heating was a good choice. He made sure to tell me to get regular tune ups, like anything else, it can stop running. Some usual problems are not producing enough heat as well as it will not turn on. Heating as well as A/C companys clean air filters as well as substitute defective parts. I should not have a problem with my heating system if I get regular tune ups. With this information, I picked out a house. I was delighted I could end the home hunting.
