We’ve been in this rental condo since mid August. This was the designated landing spot once we finally got out of the house we had spent the past 30 years in. Well, not quite 30 years but really close. Still, just the fact that the original HVAC equipment went 28 years without a hitch was remarkable. My wife and I both loved that house and it was tough to walk away from. But the fact remained that it was just too much house without the kids living there. And the vastness of that empty house just drove home the fact that it was time for us to turn the page. When you’re parents for so long, it’s hard to flip over to a focus on just my life and the life of my partner. So my wife and I knew that it was time to give up the family home. And ironically, it was the HVAC equipment that was the tipping point for that move. When we learned that the old HVAC equipment was not going to make it much longer, we took that as a signal to do other upgrades as well. And we went with the latest in residential HVAC and HVAC technology on the advice of our realtor. It sure made the difference and we made a pile of money on that house. But living in this rental sure has given me motivation to own my own HVAC equipment again. The heating and cooling equipment in this place is old and average. That would be one thing if it got service from an HVAC professional. That doesn’t happen so the heating and cooling where we are now living is certainly subpar.
