Calling someone in the middle of the evening sucks!

I think it is disappointing when I call my sister in the middle of the evening if there is an emergency.

  • I think it can be disappointing even when calling a stranger in the middle of the evening.

When my gas furnace broke plus there was no heat in the house, I wanted to call the gas furnace maintenance repair immediately, but It was 2:00 plus I did not want to frighten anyone. Several gas furnace maintenance companies including the 1 that I pay for their 24-hour emergency service. I hate to call plus wake someone up to ask them to repair the gas furnace, even if I am paying the AC provider. When the concern with the gas furnace occurred, I waited until the next afternoon when the local gas furnace maintenance supplier opened. I told the guy on the iPhone about the problems plus how they occurred in the middle of the evening. The telephone operator proposed that I just call the emergency line next time. They have service experts tied up on the evening crew for just this type of problem. The gas furnace maintenance service expert arrived around 10:00 a.m. after I had been separate from heat for almost 12 hours. The temperature reading on the thermostat was only 55° by the time I finally had someone now working on the gas furnace. I’m so thankful that issue did not turn out to be a major problem. The maintenance service expert replaced a section with the gas furnace plus after that things seem to return to normal. I did not even have to spend actually much money to have the maintenance completed plus that was a very nice surprise… Even though I could have gotten the repair performed in the middle of the night when I actually needed help, I’m still cheerful that I waited until the next afternoon.

The advertisements sparked over 30% in new sales plus repair calls

When Bob plus I got married, I agreed to share everything with her. I had a successful Heating plus A/C commercial maintenance supplier so I wanted Bob to think she was a major section of this business. I went down to the city hall plus I changed the name on all of the ownership papers. I surprised Bobr 1 day with the paperwork plus she was actually touched plus cheerful. I wanted Bob to know that all of the hard task was going toward the same goal. All of us have gotten into a few disagreements since then plus sometimes I wish that I had never given Bob control over the supplier with me. There are times when I wish I had the final say. When Bob wanted to spend $6,000 for advertisements plus the local magazines, I was honestly not okay with her idea. I did not think all of us would generate enough supplier to even spend money for the advertisements, let alone try to make a profit. Bob was adamant that all of us take the leap plus I provided up on the conversation plus let Bob get what she wanted. A month later plus the sales are up 30%. Bob started asking people where they heard about the Heating plus A/C supplier when they contacted the answering service. Over 60% of our current shoppers found out about us because of the advertisements in the homeowners magazines. Bob was right when she said it was going to work. I will never doubt Bob again when it comes to nice ideas for advertising the Heating plus A/C business.

I got frostbitten when I was waiting for the bus

When I was a kid, I had to wait out in the cold for the bus.

My mom plus dad both left for their tasks around 7:00 plus they dropped us off at the bus stop on their way to work.

My parents were not bothered if all of us were going to get cold. Sometimes the sunshine was just coming up by the time all of us were leaving the lakeside house to go to the bus. There were afternoons when the uneven temps fell below zero when all of us had to stand outside. My nephew complains if his mom is late picking him up from the bus stop. I used to get frostbite in my fingers plus toes plus this kid gets to wait in the automobile with the heat running. My sister Jen drives him all the way to the bus stop plus then she sits there with the heat running so the boys can be warm until the bus gets there. After the boys leave on the university bus, Jen drives back home. The only reason she gets in the automobile plus turns on the heat is so the kids do not have to wait outside in the cold. I really think that Jen spoils them too much. If they had to stand outside the way all of us did when all of us were younger, then they would actually savor the fact that Jen doesn’t make them walk all the way back to the lake house every day when the bus drops them off. Jen picks up the boys from the bus stop plus drives them back up the hill so they never have to walk a single step of the trip.

My hands shake too badly for my line of work

During the past twenty five years, I have been working in the heating plus A/C maintenance industry.

The task is rewarding in many different ways.

I savor being helpful plus gas furnace plus A/C maintenance is the ultimate way that I can help, however most people are totally in the dark when it comes to their heating plus A/C systems; When they can find affordable help that is so reliable plus so fast, it makes a big difference. I used to be able to run circles around the young guns who were working at the Heating plus A/C Contracting supplier. I could install an entire natural gas furnace or AC on my own before lunch. After 25 years, I actually do not have the same stamina that I had in the past. There are many other Heating plus A/C techs that can task faster than me. My shaking hands doesn’t help much at all either. It’s hard to hold the screwdrivers plus a lot of times I have to learn 1 hand with the other. It honestly will not be actually long until I won’t be able to continue working for the heating plus A/C maintenance industry. My wife Bess said she thinks it is time for myself and others to retire. I could spend all day fishing on the dock or I could go to the racetrack with my friends. Bess has been actually helpful plus encouraging when it comes to adjusting to a new job or retiring completely. I’m actually thankful to have her. Beth has been the rock in my life for 30 years. I am looking forward to several adventures Beth and I will have together after both of us retire.

How do I get out the animals separate from damaging my ventilation

A customer called me in a panic Last weekend because she was concerned about a different sound coming from the basement.

I wasn’t quite sure that I could help.

The odd sounds might not have been related to the heater or the cooling system. The person seemed to think that that sound was coming from the heating pump area of the system. She did not want to unattach the cover from the cooling system to look at the HVAC equipment further because she was a little afraid of what might be inside. I agreed to help this customer with the unusual plus potentially dangerous call. I went directly to the place ASAP the next afternoon. I had to go to the lakeside house the previous day, however the homeowner was not there when she called. She set the appointment for the following day. The first thing I did was go to the basement. I shut the basement door so I could listen to the sounds that were coming from the basement. After 10 or15 minutes, I started to hear a different scratching sound. It was honestly coming from the ductwork. I couldn’t sense any movement behind the ventilation, although I could honestly hear something going on. The only way to reach the bottom of the concern was to chop into the duct task to see what was going on behind the ventilation ducts. The owner agreed to the task plus I got started. There was a nest of baby mice in the vents and ductwork. It was a miracle that all of us were able to unattach all of the mouse babies separate from harming any of them.

That baby was not safe in that room

When I visit a customer’s condo to provide a Heating plus A/C maintenance call, I am supposed to keep all my political and personal opinions to myself, and it is crucial that the customer get the facts plus only the facts.

There are times when I want to give my opinion as well, however a week ago I responded to a repair call at a condo downtown, however the person called because the old gas furnace was not warming the entire lake house the way it should.

I identified a couple of separate problems while I was there, then one concern was due to a dirty air filter, another issue concerned the old gas furnace. Another separate issue was the duct task inside of the attic. I checked the surrounding ductwork just to be certain that airflow was reaching every single section of the house. That’s when I realized how the ductwork above 1 of the home offices had come loose plus needed repairs. The damage to the ductwork was significant plus I felt that it was such a safety hazard, then since this turned out to be a room where there was an infant sleeping, I urged the customer to follow my advice plus repair the ductwork in the home office before an accident happened. I do not think the customer planned to do any of the repairs until I made it sound that they were disappointing parents if they let the concern persist plus put the baby’s health plus well-being in jeopardy. They did the repairs that were necessary plus nobody ever contacted my boss to complain so I guess my advice made a big difference.

Some try to save money by neglecting HVAC care

Even if you are just trying to save some cash, you still should not neglect your A/C.

A lot of people think that in order to save cash, the best thing that they can do is split the cooling bills around their house… But I disagree because I suppose that you still need central A/C even if you are trying to split costs.

Air conditioning is more pressing than a lot of people suppose when you live somewhere as sizzling and humid as the two of us do. Even if you are simply okay with high rapidly decreasing temperatures, the humidity around here can really cause a lot of issues with your home if you don’t have A/C! Humidity magically goes away whenever you are running a central A/C in your home. As a matter of fact, humidity control is 1 of the main reasons that a lot of people run a central A/C idea in their homes in the first place. In my honest opinion, it’s a terrible idea to turn off your central A/C idea just because you want to save cash in your home, but there has to be another way to split costs around the beach house rather than splitting off your cooling idea during the warm season. If you do try it, you will be sorry, not only will it be harder to relax, entertain, and sleep, however you will really end up being crabby all the time if you don’t have any A/C! Just take it from me, A/C is much more pressing than a lot of people think.

Going without HVAC care isn’t the way to save money

Even if you are trying to simply save money, you still should not neglect your cooling system! A lot of people I know know that in order to save money, the best thing that they can do is cut the cooling bills around their house… I disagree because I know that you still need a central cooling system even if you are trying to cut costs.

Air conditioning is more important than a lot of people know when you live anywhere as hot and humid as both of us do; then even if you are okay with high temperatures, the humidity around here can easily cause a lot of issues with your lake condo if you don’t have a cooling system… However, humidity magically goes away whenever you are running a central cooling system in your home.

As a matter of fact, humidity control is 1 of the main reasons that a lot of people run a central cooling system idea in their homes in the first place. In our opinion, it’s an exhausting idea to turn off your central cooling system just because you want to save money in your home! There has to be another way to cut costs around the condo rather than cutting off your cooling idea while I was in the summer. If you do try it, you will be sorry! Not only will it be harder to relax, entertain, and sleep, but you will absolutely end up being crabby all the time if you don’t have any cooling system! Take it from me, the cooling system is much more important than a lot of people think.
