My neighbor has been having a hard time buying a house.
- She is too picky with her decision.
I told her at this point she needs to write the houses she wants the most on a card and put it in a hat. She told me it is a extreme decision (which I do agree) even though she has becoming really indecisive with this whole process. After a week of deciding she finally made her pick. She chose a smaller household off of a side street. She got a really nice deal on it but there were some things that she needed to buy and replace. I got a call from her the other day. She told me that she had an appointment with an Heating, Ventilation, and A/C worker. He told her that she genuinely needed a replacement with her Heating, Ventilation, and A/C system. She was a little sad hearing this because it would cost her a few thousand dollars. She told me that the first thing that the worker did was do a manual and commercial load calculation. This would allow my neighbor to have the familiar size for her new Heating, Ventilation, and A/C system. If this calculation didn’t occur, she could have the wrong Heating, Ventilation, and A/C system size. If a component is oversized and is too big for a home, it can increase the capital cost at the time of installation and extra costs to when the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C system runs. I was curious to know all of this because I didn’t realize that an Heating, Ventilation, and A/C system had to be sized. Now I know for when I own my home someday.
