For some reason, bad things seem to sort of come in bunches when it comes to my life. I don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing. It’s sort of like life just beats me down all at once and then I have clear sailing for an awfully long time. But a few weeks ago, I certainly had a very bad, no good day that’s for sure. It was almost like I could feel something in the air when I woke up that morning inside the central air conditioning of my home. I can’t really pinpoint what it was that felt off, but something sure did. By the time I got inside the commercial HVAC of the office that morning, it was already almost 90 degrees outside. Yea, that’s how Summer can be around these parts. So by lunchtime, the temperatures were up around the century mark. But the commercial HVAC equipment in our office is awesome so I was still enjoying the cooling comfort. But the day started terribly and then spiraled into being just a hideous day. I didn’t get out of the commercial HVAC of the office that evening until nearly 8 pm. So walking into my home was supposed to be my saving grace. Instead, I walked into a home that felt more like a humid oven. My residential HVAC was silent. I called the HVAC professionals immediately. They gave me the bad news that my old heat pump was dead and it would be two to three weeks before they could replace it. I just grabbed some clothes and checked into a motel. The next day, the HVAC professionals came back with some portable air conditioning units. That saved my bacon as I’m now just days away from getting my new HVAC equipment.
