Good News Friday

Well good news for me anyway. My great HVAC man fixed my AC yet again. Cool air is seeping into the house as I hunt and peck. 

Of course there are no guarantees. The furnace is new. The AC unit old, but he used bubble gum and baling wire to get it running yet again. 

Another company told me five years ago it was done. Kaput. My guy believes in fixing if he can . He’s an honest tradesman and worth every penny.

Those are rare and also as scarce as the proverbial hen's teeth. Grandson has decided he has no future in what he does so with wife's blessing he's going to trade school starting next month. Even enroll and everything! Ya from both mom and grandma. HVAC field.

Glad he could fix it, but if it is more than 7 years old, it may well be worth replacing it. Newer units are much more efficient and will use 1/3 less electricity for the same cooling. A new unit may well pay for itself in a few years. Plus Federal and state incentives to upgrade may well make it worthwhile.
IIRC, you are far enough south that it may be worth getting a heat pump to do much of your heating also.

The furnace is only 2-3 years old
