What do you do when your heating and cooling bill is too high? Well if you are anything prefer my dad, you do literally anything and everything except spend more currency on the cooling system… Growing up, I still remember all of my dad’s wacky ways of trying to save currency.
Some of the methods he used are quite creative.
However, more often than not they didn’t genuinely do anything, and my siblings and I were kind of left to suffer in the heat or cold. My father tried all of the traditional methods prefer running several fans, or closing the windows to prevent sun from coming in, even though I guess that wasn’t enough. One of the ways he tried to keep us cool was by putting buckets of ice water around the house, that way if the two of us know hot, the two of us just pour a little bit on us to know cool again. That didn’t work because not only was the water too cold, but the two of us were wet too. Then at some point he tried using essential oils that were supposed to cool our skin or something prefer that, and ofcourse that failed too. I am cheerful that I am all grown up now and have my own central air conditioner. While running the central air conditioning system is expensive, no doubt, I know it is worth it if it means having nice cool air. I love coming lake house to a nice air conditioned house, I know it is 1 of the best feelings, and being in control of my own HVAC is good as well.
