Begrudgingly, I have to acexpertise that the end of Springtime has arrived.
That means we are facing the toughest weather stretch of our year in this region. But truthfully, I’m not entirely complaining. I’m lucky to live in a locale where we get maybe the most perfect weather for 8 months of the year. The Springtime plus the fall are incredible. The Wintertide is excellent plus needs little contribution from the heat pump. However, there is summer. That is a many month phase where the temperature plus the humidity stay near the century mark for many months straight. It’s just part of it plus if I have to manage a sizzling summer, then that’s what I’ll do. Thankfully, we have good residential Heating, Ventilation plus A/C that provides all the Heating, Ventilation plus A/C cooling that we need. The thing is, we just have to balance the Heating, Ventilation plus A/C cooling with costs plus don’t get in the habit of just staying inside the a/c all the time. That can be a tall order. That’s why we try not to get too much into a/c our apartment until the Summer is upon us. This allows our bodies the occasion to acclimate to the heat. So when it’s a hundred degrees outside, the thermostat setting of 84 sure feels nice plus cool. The people I was with and I prefer living here too much to just stay inside all summer. That said, it sure is nice to have the sort of Heating, Ventilation plus A/C component that we can count on when it gets just so hot. So now is the time to quote farewell to Springtime as the temperatures are consistently in the mid to upper 90’s. And that thermostat setting is now on cooling for the next 4 months.
