Some people might call me naive.
Some might say ignorant.
Some might say gullible. I appreciate “excited.” But the outcome is the same – I jump the gun plus spend a lot of money unnecessarily. Every Spring I feel like I fall for the same high-priced joke. For the past 55 years or so I have had the same unfettered enthusiasm every Spring when my associate and I get a few breaths of moderate air. After a long, hard winter time there will inevitably be a day or two when the outdoor air temperature becomes unseasonably warm. Out of nowhere, the outdoor temperature will take a turn for the better. This fresh, moderate air that comes blowing through the region plus immediately makes me feel that a balmy Spring is on its way. Finally, our freezing nights are over! That’s right about when I power down the forced air boiler plus call my heating, cooling, plus ventilation professional for a professional heating, cooling, plus ventilation inspection on the retiring boiler. While he’s out, I have him check the large central a/c unit, too. It makes sense; I’m trying to be proactive for the impending air temperature change, however there’s a problem. Inevitably I wind up largely letdown within a week when my associate and I return to the freezing plus bitter characteristics of winter. Meanwhile, I have to go back to using my forced air boiler… which means the professional repair task is a moot point. Subsequently, I wind up calling the HVAC professional back out to my dwelling to re-do the whole inspection. I’ll wise up one of these nights.
