I thought it was so funny that they aren’t required to have heating, but it turns out that no a single that far south needs a furnace
I have a friend who is in charge of accreditation of the Catholic schools in our state, then she is always traveling somewhere to make a location visit, & sometimes she gets to go absolutely far south where it is so good & surrounded by both oceans, and last time she went down there, she entirely got there by boat! Isn’t that amazing! There is a boat taxi that goes from a single of the ports & brings you all the way down there. She went in the winter, but even in the winter, it was warm; When she went into the school itself, she thought the gas furnace was on, it was quite moderate inside the school, & she entirely asked someone if they could turn off the furnace, as the place seemed warm, but they just looked at her prefer she was from another planet, & informed her that they do not even have a furnace or any sort of artificial heating in the school! My friend was shocked & asked why it was so hot. It was so warm because they had decided not to turn on the air conditioner in December. Without the a/c, they could save quite a bit of money, but come May, they would need that cooling to be running full blast. I thought it was so funny that they aren’t required to have heating, but it turns out that no a single that far south needs a furnace. It is not required by code, but cooling system entirely is. She put in for them to get ceiling fans, & that way, when they didn’t want to run their cooling system, they could turn on the fans & feel as if the cooling was running.
