It feels like the summer season has been a really long fall season. It was still warm enough for the children to play outside. I watch them play while I stay inside and work. I keep the door open so I can hear them. Even though it was not warm we kept our air conditioning on. We kept it a little cooler than the temperature outside. It was always relaxing. My kids like to come out of the warm shower and feel the cold air. Our dishwasher can make the house warm along with how much I cook. The air we keep on in our house evens out the warmth we put in. When I received my tune up in the fall, my HVAC technician was confused. He asked if I had the air conditioning on. I told him I still had it running. He told me the HVAC unit was not on. There was nothing running. I started to become confused as well. He looked at the HVAC unit thinking it may have broken. I did not think this was possible since our home has been cool. It turned out the HVAC unit was broken. There were several parts that had been worn out and stopped working. It had been such a cool summer I had not even noticed. He told me that there was probably a lot of wear and tear on the HVAC equipment. That is why it seems so sudden that there are parts that need to be replaced. He told me that by having so much hot air in the house, the HVAC system has to work harder. It puts a lot of wear and tear on the equipment. In cooler weather, turn the air off and open your windows.

about putting many layers of clothes on. The weather is just perfect for me. The air conditioning in my house from my HVAC system works great. It did work great until it broke down last summer. It is a good thing I enjoy the heat. I did not think that getting my HVAC unit repaired was a priority. It really was not a priority since I did not mind the warm weather. I had a nice fan that I could use when I tried to sleep at night. After two days of not having air conditioning, I thought i needed to get it back. The fan was so loud at night that I could not sleep. The fan was only in one spot so I went without any type of cooling most of the time. I really did not want to carry a fan around with me everywhere. I called my local HVAC business. They sent an HVAC technician to check my HVAC unit shortly after I called. It was nothing more than a simple air filter cleaning. It had become really clogged this summer. It was an easy fix. He showed me how to check the air filters and change them. It is not hard but I did not think about the air filters before. I forgot how important they are for the air quality in my home. I don’t want all that dirt and dust from the vents filling my home. The air filters is what keeps that out of my clean air. From now on I really should pay more attention to the HVAC system. I do not want to go without my air conditioning again. I did not realize how much I needed it until I didn’t have it.
