One of my customers desired a home improvement to make his home more modern.
- They had an old boiler in the basement that needed to be disposed of because boiler service couldn’t make it work.
They wanted to make the space a working area, so it needed to have a heater. This was my first project where I had to troubleshoot furnace problems. Most of my customers chose to have the heating corporation handled by a Heating & Air Conditioning expert before involving me, but this client wanted everything handled by one man. I only knew how to do basic Heating & Air Conditioning maintenance and to call a Heating & Air Conditioning repairman for the more complicated parts. I needed to know what kind of heat and air conditioning product to install for my customers, but I couldn’t do it without consulting with a heating dealership representative. I reasoned that using the furnace maintenance expert who handled furnace servicing for my residence would be the best course of action because I knew he did quality work and was based in a heater/heater installation business. I was correct because it simplified my to-do list and allowed me to check things off. After inspecting the home, the expert suggested a heat pump or a hybrid heater. The hydronic heating component was ruled out because it would not work for the house. My good friend and I chose the hybrid option because it included everything else plus an oil boiler. Everything was going to be perfect. My great friend and I completed the remaining home improvement projects, installed the equipment, and the home was ready for my customers within two weeks. They’d gone on a short vacation and hoped to return to their current home, which is what my great friend and I offered them.
