So, over the last more than two years, our heating and air conditioning system has not been working the best; but the people I was with and I have had the heating and air conditioning professional at our house at least once every season… And every time he tells us we have to remember our heating and air conditioning system is over 20 years old; however, I simply guessed that just care about everything else, the heating and air conditioning system had a lifespan… Then my hubby and I decided this year was going to be the year to come up with a new heating and air conditioning system.
- The people I was with and I weren’t sure what we wanted to buy; however, we knew we didn’t want ductwork, but after years of using a boiler, we genuinely thought that we would stick with a boiler system and our window air conditioning units.
The more we talked about this, the more uneasy we got about it. My hubby had been talking about zoned ductless heating and air conditioning, commonly known as mini splits. The people I was with and I knew we would need to have at least 6 indoor units to cool and heat our entire home. My hubby started looking at ductless heating and air conditioning systems and figuring out how much it was going to cost, not just for the upgrade of it, but to run throughout the year. It surprised us to hear that our weekly bills would go up less than $30 a month when the air conditioning or heating was on. My weekly bills fluctuate $30 a month when the window air conditioning or the boiler was running, then on top of the energy bill, we also had to purchase oil to heat the water for the boiler, but ductless heating and air conditioning was simply the best way to go for HVAC.
