The importance of researching HVAC systems
I recently bought my first-ever house.
I was extremely excited to finally get out of my parent’s home and start my life on my own.
Sometimes you find out that there is a price you will pay after moving out and I should’ve done better research. I found out that the HVAC system was outdated and inefficient after the system failed to form an HVAC tech. I didn’t ask the HVAC tech too many questions at all but also didn’t want to get my heating and cooling system repaired right away. So I did a little research. I started to look into various HVAC systems and learned about the dual fuel system, which uses a gas furnace and an electric heat pump to provide the most efficient heating and cooling. I also learned about the ductless heat pump, which provides heating and cooling without the ductwork. After a bit, I decided to go with the ductless heat pump because I felt it was the best option for my home. I called the HVAC company again and told them what I wanted. They sent out an HVAC technician who got to work on installing the ductless heat pump. I knew overall I needed to upgrade even more with my HVAC system but this was what I can afford right now. It’s going to be a slow upgrade to my system and other things around the house. But it’s spring now so it’s not exactly hot yet and winter is far off. So overall, I feel I’m in a good place.
