The year just began, but Spring is already right around the corner.

• Chad’s kids will be out of university for a week, and they are looking forward to the break.

During this time of year, Chad usually gets ready for the warmer months to approach. And there are several things that he does around his house to get ready for the warmer seasons. Of course, spring cleaning is at the top of the list and his checklist has lots of tasks to be completed. A few include cleaning all the baseboards and window sills, washing the curtains, and replacing all the heavy drapery to lighter window treatments. Chad also cleans his Heating, Ventilation and A/C air vents and dust all the light fixtures in his home. In addition to cleaning, there are some tasks that Chad never skips. They include changing the air filter in his Heating, Ventilation and A/C component and removing debris and leaves away from the unit. Most crucially, Chad schedules his yearly service during the Spring. Because he lives in the south, Chad uses his Heating, Ventilation and A/C component the most during the warmer months, which means from March all the way to November his air conditioner will be running on most of those afternoons, and getting the Heating, Ventilation and A/C component serviced will guarantee that it doesn’t malfunction while the weather is hot outside. During Spring break, his adolescents will be thinking about what current video games to play, while Chad schedules will be packed doing things to make sure that his house remains as comfortable as can be. And having a functional Heating, Ventilation and A/C component is essential for his comfort.

In addition, you’ll also need to fulfill some educational requirements to become an Heating, Ventilation and A/C specialist.

A few afternoons ago, mom hired a handyman to fix her dishwasher that broke down weeks ago. She must disclose that the dishwasher is perhaps the least used appliance in her home. Mom never uses enough pots and pans to justify the use of the dishwasher. So, sporadically, she will use it to disinfect some of her glassware that is safe to be washed that way. Well, during the cycle, the dishwasher stopped, and it never came back on. Mom opened the unit only to find that there was water accumulated at the bottom of the machine. She tried to restart it but to no avail, so mom had no option but to call a handyman to repair the issue. Mom went to the internet and found a reputable girl who was in the company for more than 21 years, plus, she had good reviews. Mom was comfortable knowing that she was a good handyperson. She was shocked at the list of services that she performed. They range from simple jobs like installing ceiling fans to complicated jobs such as fixing an Heating, Ventilation and A/C unit. In order to fix or troubleshoot an Heating, Ventilation and A/C unit, it takes some technical skills and a fair amount of electrical comprehension. In addition, you’ll also need to fulfill some educational requirements to become an Heating, Ventilation and A/C specialist. Mom doubted that the handyperson had any official training. In fact, she might not have any at all and gained her comprehension of Heating, Ventilation and A/C units from fixing the component over the years. While a handyperson is good for odd jobs around the home, mom wouldn’t hire one to fix her Heating, Ventilation and A/C unit. She’d rather use a professional specialist.

 

New heating

With the rise in prices of everything and anything, we have been super conservative with our spending.

You can even say that we have become strict money managers when it comes to our finances. Currently, we are at the point where we know how every penny in our bank account is being spent. Recently, we went through our online statement and got rid of all the extra subscriptions that we did not need. For the ones that we did keep, we logged into our accounts and made adjustments where we could, to lower the bi-weekly cost. We are beginning to feel we don’t need all this excess that we all have. If you think about it, there are particular things that we need. There are things that are pure luxury that we could do without. For instance, we don’t need daily coffee from the local coffee shop, but we do need a bed to sleep in or a place to live. And within that place to live, we need hot water, electricity and central air conditioning and heating. Having central a/c and heating guarantees that inside our house is comfortable all year long. Yes, we could possibly eliminate central a/c and heating by using other methods to keep our house comfortable, and we have considered doing it. Instead of central heating, space heaters would be a good alternative for heating our home. But while space heaters can’t supply heat to an entire house, they are good for small areas. Anyway, we will continue to cut down on as much expenses as we can, and for those essential items that we need like central a/c and heating, we will eventually find ways to lower costs without compromising the comfort of our home.

For the most part, my husband and I get along, and it’s not much that we fight about.

In fact, most of our fights are about minor things that can be easily resolved with tiny compromises.

But there is one thing that we have been fighting about since we lived together that we have yet to solve. And that is the ideal temperature for the air conditioning in our home. He likes to keep the A/C at 72 degrees in the day, and then 70 degrees at night. This means, it is always cold inside the house, and he insists that it feels great. I would prefer to keep the thermostat at 78 during the day and then a 74 at night. He believes that 78 degrees is too hot for the daytime, especially during the Summer when the sun is hot outside. I assured him that 78 is the recommended temperature to keep the A/C without sacrificing any comfort inside our home. I have even made the argument that if we set the thermostat to 78 degrees that we could save money. Unfortunately, he has never accepted this argument, even after I presented the facts and data from the Department of Energy website to him. This has been an ongoing argument between us and if I complain about it being too cold, he always suggests that I wear more clothes when I am inside the house. I don’t think we will ever agree on the ideal temperature for inside our home because we have our own preferences. Perhaps one day we will be able to see eye-to-eye on this minor issue.

Pollution and toxins are found in the air everywhere we go.

• Whether we are inside or outside, we are breathing in particles in the air that we should not.

And while some of these particles are so tiny that they cause no harm to us, there are times when the air can be unhealthy to breathe. For instance, if the air is filled with smoke from a fire or filled with chemicals from a spill, the outside air will for sure become compromised. But what about the indoor air quality? Is it compromised when there is a chemical spill or smoke in the air outside? The short answer is yes, the indoor air could be compromised as well. If you experience coughing, difficulty breathing, headaches or nausea, chances are, the indoor air quality has pollutants in it. Luckily, there are ways to improve the air quality inside the home. One main way is to make sure that the air filter inside the HVAC unit is clean. The cleaner the air filter, the easier it is to remove the pollutants from the air. Other ways to improve the indoor air quality is to purchase an air purifier. While an HVAC unit can remove certain pollutants from the air, the air purifier will clean the air much better. In fact, a good air purifier can remove most indoor toxins from the air. Believe it or not, but a plant can also improve the indoor air quality. Not only are they beautiful, but they can make your home safe for breathing. There will always be toxins in the air, but there are ways to improve the indoor air quality inside our home.

Nowadays, having air conditioning is a normal thing and many of us, including me, take this luxury for granted

There are times when I sit and reminisce about my childhood and think about when life was much simpler. The only thing I was responsible for was to keep my room clean, get good grades in school, and to complete my weekly chores. There was no work to go to, no bills to pay, no food to prepare, everything was taken care of by my family. Of course, playing was always top of my list and as long as I got all my chores done, I could play for as long as I wanted. My house was a single family home, and it had a finished basement, where my dad used to hang out all the time. My brother and I used to sneak down into the basement when we were tired of playing inside our room. The basement was pretty cool. It had the biggest TV in the house, and there were also a bunch of snacks that we used to sneak and eat. The best part was, it had a window A/C unit, so it always felt good down there. The only other room in the house that had A/C was my parents’ room. We used fans inside our room to keep cool when the weather was warm outside. Not many houses in our neighborhood had air conditioning, so we were pretty fortunate to have 2 window units inside our home. Nowadays, having air conditioning is a normal thing and many of us, including me, take this luxury for granted. While I love the modern luxuries of today like having central air conditioning, I do sometimes wish that I could return to the simple life I had as a kid.

I love my sister Cassie, and we have always been close, even when we were kids.

We are only 2 years apart, so we basically grew up together and shared most of the same experiences.

We were so close, some people thought we were twins, and we used that to our advantage when we needed to. Today, Cassie and I are still close, in fact, even though we live in different parts of the country, we see each other all the time. She lives in the southern part of the country, where the weather is mostly warm during the year. She barely experiences any change in temperatures. The Winters are mild, and the other months are usually just warm. But I live in the Midwest, where we experience all the seasons as they were meant to be. She hates coming to visit during the Winter months because she does not like the cold. Even though she is never outside for too long and I have a very good furnace that keeps my home warm during the colder months. Of course, she doesn’t care that my furnace works, all she can think about is the temperature outside. And to be honest, I don’t blame her because when I visit her home, I do complain about how hot it is even though she has air conditioning inside her home. She also has a heat pump, but of course, she barely uses it. Because we live in different sections of the country, we use our HVAC units differently. As long as I visit her in the Summer, she has air conditioning. And when she visits me during the Winter, my furnace is running to keep her warm. The weather won’t stop us from seeing each other.

 

My sister and I use our HVAC units differently

My guys had everything in place

We were at a bbq cookout the other week. Every year, they have a BBQ cook-off and invite some of the best chefs in our area. There are some brave home cooks who also bring their wares and show off their talents. My son was an excellent cook, and so was my son-in-law. They got together and entered the BBQ cook-off as a team. I asked how they were going to keep their food safe and precook other items. My son made a face and told me he knew exactly what they had to do. He looked through his search and found a local place that had portable kitchens for rent. He had a huge BBQ grill, and so did my son-in-law. They had everything they needed in the portable kitchen, except the supplies. It took them a week to figure out what they were cooking, and what they needed to make the BBQ’d meats and the sides. They also had disposable tasting plates, spoons, knives, and forks. They pulled their portable kitchen into the fairgrounds the day before the cook-off began and set everything up that was needed. They were going to get the required menu at 6PM that night. It was a mad dash for some cooks, to make sure they had everything they needed. My guys had everything in place. They had their portable kitchen that was fully stocked, and an RV, so they could camp out and get up early the next day to cook. One item on their menu had to be slow cooked all night long.
