When I see the calendar flip over to October, I sort of let out a sigh of relief as well as put a massive grin on my face as well.
This is because I know that the summer time is essentially over.
There may be a few more days in the high 70’s left but the mornings and mornings of hot temperatures hovering just at or over a hundred are over for the next 7 or 8 weeks. That is a relief indeed. As difficult as it can be to manage the summertime heat, it’s totally worth it. The rest of the year is truly glorious when it comes to weather and temperature. The winter is so mild that our heat pump rarely even has to be flipped over to heating on the temperature control. Now that’s the sort of winter that I like. I’ve experienced what our neighbors to the far north experience and never want any part of that again. Pretty much, if you need a furnace or a boiler to get through the winter, it’s just too chilly for me. But like I said, we more than make up for it with the summertime heat. It’s not just the high hot as well as cold temperatures, it’s the humidity as well. Thankfully, residential HVAC can manage both the heat as well as the humidity. The heat pump is designed to move heat energy out of the house. And as it does this, it’s taking a bunch of moisture with it. That balances the humidity levels inside our homes. This makes such a massive difference to the comfort of our homes. The heat pump as well as HVAC cooling are the only thing that can entirely manage this sort of summer. But as both of us welcome October, I’ll start to guess less about all the air conditioners.
