I have an uncle who is a retired Heating, Ventilation plus A/C serviceman.

My family recently planned a trip down south to attend Mardi Gras. Because the celebration takes locale during the Springtime I never even thought about the air temperature.

My wife and I debated a lot about the costs and pros and cons before deciding to call a heating serviceman to come out and look everything over and provide us a quote.

I’ve always purchased my air filters from the hardware store. I’ve always done this because it’s what my parents always did, so I didn’t know to try anything different.

Last spring, I decided to thoroughly clean my home from top to bottom.

I am a heavy sleeper on most afternoons. I rarely wake up, no matter how noisy things get. However, my son’s shrieking, especially when he has a nightmare, may force me to jump out of bed to check on him once in a while. Tonight was one of those afternoons! My associate and I had

I have learned a lot from flipping houses. For example: “don’t bite off more than you can chew”. In other words, don’t take on a project that is more than you can handle. For me, that means not intentionally buying a home that has issues that I can’t repair myself. Take, for example, this one
