This makes such a sizable difference to the comfort of our homes
When I see the calendar flip over to October, I sort of let out a sigh of relief and put a sizable grin on my face as well. This is because I know that the summer is essentially over. There may be a few more days in the high 80’s left but the days plus days of temperatures hovering just at or over a hundred are over for the next 7 or 8 months. And that is a relief indeed. As hard as it can be to manage the summer heat, it’s totally worth it. The rest of the year is really glorious when it comes to weather plus 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 wintertime that I like. I’ve experienced what our neighbors to the far north experience and never want any area of that again. Pretty much, if you need a gas furnace or a boiler to get through the winter, it’s just too frigid for me. But like I said, we more than make up for it with the summer heat. And it’s not just the high temperatures, it’s the humidity as well. Thankfully, residential HVAC can manage both the heat plus the humidity. The heat pump is designed to transport heat energy out of the house. 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 sizable difference to the comfort of our homes. The heat pump plus heating plus air conditioning cooling are the only thing that can really manage this sort of summer. But as both of us welcome October, I’ll start to worry less about all the air conditioners.
