Taking care of the HVAC cooling system is the last step to winter prep

The HVAC unit that does the cooling stays outside of the house

It’s surprising just how much I’ve come to love the HVAC cooling in the Summer these past years. For as long as we’ve owned this house, we’ve had a central A/C in place. That said, we never had HVAC cooling included in the heating my we get from the gas heating system. This was mostly because my spouse and I lived so far north that the summers are really mild. Sure, it might get a bit warm for a month or a bit more at the height of summer. But that’s about it. However, as my partner and I got older, we were feeling the heat in the home a lot more. That has everything to do with the fact that we’ve slowed down considerably and spent more time inside. So having HVAC cooling added to the central A/C was a bonus that I honestly wasn’t expecting to like so much. My initial reaction was that we were spending money that we didn’t need to spend on A/C and we didn’t need. Yet, my partner was rather insistent about getting the HVAC cooling. And I have to say, he was right on the currency with that call. We both loved the summers because of the central A/C. Now that the HVAC cooling unit has been added. What’s sort of ironic is the fact that the last thing I do in the fall for winter season prep is protect the A/C. The HVAC unit that does the cooling stays outside of the house. So I put a hard plastic shell over it to protect it from the weather elements.
