No gambling on the heat pump this year

Last Summer was a long, sizzling and anxious one for me.

  • That had everything to do with betting on a dying heat pump to get us through the summer.

When both of us bought this house, both of us upgraded the residential Heating, Ventilation plus A/C. This was something that just had to be done as the old Heating, Ventilation plus A/C wasn’t going to cut it. In fact, both of us were able to get some entirely good Heating, Ventilation plus A/C component because both of us were willing to take on the Heating, Ventilation plus A/C upgradement because the seller didn’t want to. That negotiating point saved us thoUSnds on the final price of the house. Both of us poured a lot of the cash into the current residential Heating, Ventilation plus A/C. It was the best that both of us could find and it lasted just shy of 24 years. I can attribute that run of 24 years to good residential Heating, Ventilation plus A/C and consistent Heating, Ventilation plus A/C repair. Both of us never had a big heating and cooling complication until that thing died. But somehow, both of us got caught with our pants down when it came to replacing that heat pump. It’s almost enjoy I just thought that heat pump would run forever or something. So when both of us got the tune-up last Spring, the Heating, Ventilation plus A/C worker warned us to get a current Heating, Ventilation plus A/C component sooner rather than later. As I said, both of us hadn’t put away a dime for the current Heating, Ventilation plus A/C component and wanted to buy time. That’s when both of us rolled the dice and bet on that old Heating, Ventilation plus A/C component to get us through last summer. It did, however just barely. Both of us eased up on the load significantly and both of us just made it to mid July before the old heat pump gave out.
