This certainly did help us to get more accustomed to the heat instead of relying solely on the air conditioning system.
It was way overdue really. We’ve been down here dealing with this sort of heat and humidity now for many years. Well, this will be our second summer. Of course that’s the toughest section about living in this region. The heat and humidity are just so intense during the Summer heat season. That’s from July through November and it comes with lots of Heating, Ventilation, and A/C cooling. Thankfully, the people I was with and I have enjoyable quality heating and air provided for us by the awesome heat pump the people I was with and I had installed when the people I was with and I bought this location. However, even though it has a high SEER rating making it very efficient, we’ve leaned way too hard on the thermostat the past many summers. This Springtime, my wife and I made a commitment to ease the load on the heat pump this Summer and use our savings from the utility bill on vacation. This was a good motivator and has kept us on track. All of us started the process by not reaching for the thermostat once the hot and cold temperatures started to rise in the Springtime. Instead, the people I was with and I waited until the temps were in the 90’s to crank the air conditioning system. This certainly did help us to get more accustomed to the heat instead of relying solely on the air conditioning system. And the people I was with and I also have tightened up the condo and l acquired how to program the digital thermostat. We’re keeping the thermostat setting in the low 78’s during the afternoon before bringing it down to the mid 71’s for sleeping. It’s been a single full week of Summer and the first utility bill was a sizable winner for us.
