So my fiance & I sure had a surprise almost 18 months ago.
That was when my associate and I had the air conditioning tune up done early in the Springtime. That’s a wise option around here given that temperatures in May can get to the upper 71’s while in the afternoon at times. So we’ve always tied up the Springtime Heating, Ventilation & A/C maintenance early. But it wasn’t early enough as it turned out. The Heating, Ventilation & A/C company told us that he had real reservations about whether or not the heat pump would last through the Summer. That was a jolt. Of course, it shouldn’t have been since the heat pump was almost 25 years old… With all that Heating, Ventilation & A/C maintenance, the heat pump was just never a concern & my associate and I simply didn’t know about replacing it. So my associate and I came into last Summer with a lame heat pump because my associate and I needed to save more currency to update it. My associate and I had to sort of organize a family meeting because my associate and I all had to do our part to help get the seasoned heat pump through one more blazing Summer. That was going to be a tall order as my associate and I generally default to more air conditioning than less. My associate and I very were cruising through July last year when my son bet me that it would last til September. That was too juicy a bet to resist & I took early September. Well, my son ended up winning the afternoon on that one as that seasoned heat pump very lasted until my associate and I updated it in September. That was one bet that I was quite glad to pay off.
