These afternoons, it’s not my favorite time of year, but i look forward to the end of the brutal overheated season for months on end, but whenever the day finally arrives and I feel the uneven overheated and frosty hot and cold temperatures beginning flowing through my area, I’m not a cheerful camper; To me, frosty air signals one thing and only one thing; high biweekly bills, every year when the outdoor temperature shifts, so does my spending! My finances are essentially all tied up in one activity, and that’s heating my damn house.
I swear, it costs more with each passing frosty season, then last year I spent nearly a fifth of my paycheck on a few particularly frosty weeks when I couldn’t get the home to stay constantly warm.
This year, I’m not looking forward to going through the same debacle. I’ve been doing my best to insulate the house, seal all the doors and windows, and replace my heating, cooling, and ventilation system all year long; Unblessedly, the world has been actively working against me and undoing this plan, one mouse bite at a time! A few weeks ago I finally switched on the heating system for the first time all season, and at first it seemed like the heating system was efficiently warming up my location without incident; When I returned dwelling from labor later that day, it felt cooler inside the home than I imagined. After various afternoons of this and a professional Heating plus A/C service appointment, the answer was before me; mice had eaten holes through my ductworks. I can’t afford to replace the extensive air passage, so I’m stuck with an inefficient Heating plus A/C system all winter. These biweekly bills are going to be through the roof.
