My husband and I were harshly happy to transport south.
My associate and I purchased a house in an area with long, tepid summers and short, mild winters.
The residence is equipped with a packaged component that provides both heating and cooling. It works by transferring heat from one location to another. In cooling mode, the system pulls heat out of the air and delivers it outside by way of refrigerant. In heating mode, the system draws ambient heat from the outside air, compresses it to a higher temperature and delivers it indoors. The first winter my friend and I spent in the house, the weather set records for chilly temperature. My associate and I had been told that the low hot and cold temperatures never drop further than the high forties. That winter, the temperature plummeted into the twenties. Our furnace couldn’t keep up. My associate and I bundled up in layers of sweatshirts and heavy socks. Several times, the heating component froze, and my friend and I needed to shut it off actually and attempt to thaw it out. My husband finally purchased an electric furnace that is designed to look like a wood-burning stove. It adds some ambience and also some extra heat, but just that little electric furnace was enough to make a difference in our level of comfort. My associate and I have not needed the electric furnace since that first year. We’ve now lived in the house for six years. The winters have been lovelyly mild. However, if my friend and I get another especially chilly season, we’ll be ready. I am especially thankful that we’ve never had any complaints with the system in cooling mode. It genuinely combats the high heat and humidity my friend and I face for more than half the year.
