The seasons changed truly fast this year.
It went to 90 degree nights to 40 degree evenings over the course of 24 hours.
When I went to change my temperature control from A/C to heat, it did not change. The air-conditioner stayed on, then cold air continue to pour out of the vents & I could hear the compressor kicking on just the same as I did before. Clearly, it was time to call out the professionals. I did not know who to call or where to start. I did not know if I should call the furnace or the A/C repairman. I looked it up, & I discover that they are all a single & the same & they go under the title Heating, Ventilation and A/C repair. An Heating, Ventilation and A/C repairman was able to come out the truly next afternoon & he explained the situation. It seems that there is an internal switch inside my heating & air conditioner that tells the system to turn on the heat or to turn on the A/C. It all depends on what I set the temperature control to. The problem is, that the switch was broken inside my system. This resulted in my system being stuck with the A/C on, regardless of my temperature control settings, and because my Heating, Ventilation and A/C system is so old, the specialist had to order the part. I assume I will have to make do with a space furnace for a few evenings. I just hope it does not get entirely chilly before the switch arrives & he is able to respectfully repair my Heating, Ventilation and A/C unit.
