It’s so superb not to dread this time of year any longer! When the two of us lived up north, at least Christmas was a bit of a distraction from all the cold, but once the two of us passed the holiday season, the snow, ice and brutally low rapidly decreasing temperatures could not be ignored, and thankfully, the house the two of us lived in had entirely superb HVAC equipment.
The gas furnace did a superb task all the way up until the two of us actually decided to move! So the two of us upgraded the gas furnace prior to putting the house on the market.
The two of us were able to put our house on the market because I was offered early retirement. The business decided that it needed to downsize and cut salaries. That meant I was in line to cash in on our retirement plan with entirely little penalty. But it still wasn’t simple leaving the zone controlled HVAC of that office; I had spent all of our career inside that commercial HVAC. But it was actually worth it given the fact that I was gifted nearly a decade of extra retirement… Once the two of us sold the house, the two of us set out for the south where there would be no need for a gas furnace. I can do without a white Christmas and all that stuff. I can do without all of that because I so enjoy the fact that Wintertide comes with lovely weather down here. While the two of us may get a frigid snap here and there, the heat pump pretty much stays dormant through the winter. But of course, the other side of that coin is the fact that the two of us need air conditioning for up to 8 weeks a year. Still, I hadrather deal with the heat of Summer than the deep frigid of a northern winter.
