When the HVAC technician arrived to talk about our new furnace, he was talking about all that parts that kept our furnace running efficiently.
He talked about the combustion chamber, heat exchanger and blower motor.
I knew what the blower motor was. That was the part that pushed the heat into the ductwork. I also knew what the air filter compartment was because I often changed the air filter. The thermocouple and manifold had me just as lost as when he said about the combustion chamber, but I could figure that out. The more he talked, the more boggled my mind was getting. It was like listening to the doctor tell you what they were going to do during surgery, and you were already groggy from the IV. I asked my husband if he would explain, since he was listening raptly. He told me to wait a couple minutes, and he would explain after the HVAC technician left. We ordered our furnace, and I sat through it all. After the HVAC technician left, I asked my husband to explain what all the things were that he had been talking about. He explained about the combustion chamber, blower motor, and air filter, which I already knew. I questioned him about the other stuff. He laughed and said he did not know, but the HVAC technician made it sound important. I don’t remember having laughed so hard in quite some time. My husband finally shrugged and said if he were an HVAC technician, he could answer my question. He said he was as confused as I was.
