I don’t make a ton of money working as an HVAC technician, but I am happy with my job for the most part.

I went to school to become an HVAC technician as soon as I finished high school, so I have been doing it for about twenty years now.

I knew when I started going to school at the local technical school that I would be able to get my HVAC certification. I have always been good at that kind of work, and I have also helped out my uncle quite a bit when I was growing up. He was also an HVAC technician. Anyway, I was always very interested in heating and cooling technology, and so this line of work was just a natural way for me to go when I got out of school. After I finished earning my HVAC certification, I ended up going to work for one of the local HVAC companies here in town. I stayed there for almost three years before leaving and starting up my own commercial eight track business. I actually ended up going into business with a friend of mine and we have been doing really great ever since. Business is good, and I basically get this at my own hours for the most part. Being the owner of my own business is very fulfilling,and I like being able to help out the community from time to time. A couple of times last year, we gave away air filters to everyone who came by the sharp. We also do community festivals and things like that sometimes. I don’t make a ton of money with my HVAC company, but I am happy.

I have noticed over the past couple of summers that if the temperature is hot outside and I don’t have any air conditioning, then I end up getting a headache.

I hate getting headaches because I feel like they are the most painful thing of all.

Whenever I get a headache, it’s like I can’t function.I know that when I get a headache from being overheated, I can’t get rid of it until I go somewhere that has air conditioning where I can start cooling off. It’s really annoying during the summer time because the temperatures around here get really hot outside. A lot of places don’t have air conditioning, and my mom doesn’t have air conditioning at her house either. She gets mad if I don’t come over to visit her, but I keep telling her that I cannot come and stay at her house for any length of time because I can’t stand to be there where there is no A/C. I think that she thinks that I am joking or something, but the fact of the matter is that I really do get terrible headaches if I don’t have air conditioning. I can’t figure out what the reasoning is behind it, but the fact of the matter is that it happens. I basically feel like I am trapped inside during the summer unless I want to get a really bad headache. I will be glad when the weather starts cooling off and fall comes around again. Fall is definitely my favorite time of the year.

He says that everyone needs air conditioning, though.

I’m not really sure how it’s going to go whenever my dad moves in with us later on this month. My dad loves air conditioning more than anyone else that I have ever met. He’s always been one of those people who loves air conditioning. Even back when I was a kid, he would come in from working outside in the heat and feel so much better. He would always say that there is no reason to not have central air conditioning in your home. He said that he would love to give just about everyone that he knows central air conditioning if he could. Of course, the fact that air conditioning costs so much to have installed kind of keeps him from doing that sort of thing. He says that everyone needs air conditioning, though. I think that he’s right, for the most part, especially down here in the south where we live right now! He loves air conditioning more than just about anything else, and I know that he has a good reason for it! Back whenever he was in the service, they used to be very hot all the time and they never had any air conditioning at all. I know that once he finished in the military, he decided that he would never be without A/C ever again. So when he moves in here with us, I don’t know what we are going to do. He keeps the A/C turned down much more than we ever do, but I don’t want for him to feel uncomfortable!

My mom always says that bad things happen in threes.

She has always said that kind of thing, ever since I was a kid.

I never really knew what she was talking about back when I was a kid, but these days, I definitely get it. I think that she was probably right now that I am older. It’s all starting to make more sense to me now because bad things do really seem to happen in threes! It could be that maybe I’m just looking for bad things to happen now, but that really seems to be how it is for me these days. I had a flat tire on my car the other day and then right after that, I ended up losing a huge client at work. That was terrible and just when I thought that my week could not get any worse, I noticed that the air conditioning in my house did not seem to be working anymore. The temperature was getting hotter and hotter and the weather outside was heating up too. It was just not a good week for me, that’s for sure. Not only did I have to waste time going to the tire store to get a new tire and pay for that, but I cost myself a huge commission at work by losing that account. When the air conditioning at my house stopped working, that was really just the icing on the cake. I had to call the local HVAC company and pay a small fortune to get the central air conditioning repaired. Now, everything seems to be running smoothly, and I am hoping that nothing else goes wrong.

Summer goes by way too fast for my liking most years.

I always feel like the summer flies, even though the rest of the year doesn’t.

I don’t really understand why it is this way, but the fact of the matter is that summer is almost over and they haven’t done half of the things that I wanted to get done this year. I wanted to do a lot of new landscaping outside, and I also wanted to install a hot tub. Neither of those things have happened yet, and the summer is almost over! The only thing that’s good about the fact that this summer is almost over is the fact that the weather is probably going to start cooling off soon. We have had the hottest temperatures on record this summer and that is probably why I have not gotten very much done outside. The temperatures have been in the high 90s most days, and it’s just miserable outside. The last thing I want to do is go out there and melt away when I can just stay inside my house in the nice cool air conditioning. Even though I will be sorry to see the sunshine go, I have to admit that I am somewhat ready for the weather to start cooling off. I have been paying a fortune in air conditioning bills for the past three months and I’m definitely ready for all of that to be over with. I am looking forward to cooler days and nights. I also can’t wait to start using the outside fire pit and our new gas fireplace in the living room.

 

quality air conditioning

The huge glass window in my mom’s living room really heats her house up like crazy in the summertime.

It’s become a real problem for her when it comes to the cooling bills in her house during the summertime.

We have had a really hot summer around here this year, and that has really been an issue for my mom. She really likes having family gatherings during the summertimes, but no one wants to go over there because it’s so hot in her house. It’s literally like that window starts heating up her whole entire house right before lunch and then it gets hotter and hotter in there until the sun goes down. It’s like a greenhouse effect inside of her great room and it heats up the whole rest of the house too. I know that she’s spending a fortune on air conditioning this summer, but it’s not even helping all that much at all. I told her that she should call up her local heating and cooling company and have them come to see if there is anything that she can do about it. There might be some way that she can block off the duct work in there or something and use a different sort of air conditioning system altogether in the great room. I read something about something called a ductless mini split air conditioning system on an HVAC blog and I think that might be just the thing for her to get. No matter what she does, it has to be better than what she’s dealing with now.
