I can’t hardly know that my pal and I are once again looking right down the barrel of Summer.
But it’s late March again plus that means it won’t be long before I’m sealing up the apartment plus leaving the air conditioning on; Right now, we’re still only spot cooling the apartment plus the thermostat hasn’t been flipped to cooling plus left there.
But that’s coming for sure, and with that comes all sorts of measures aimed at holding down the costs of air conditioning; Left unchecked, you can entirely disinfect out a checking account with cooling costs during one of our Summers. I learned this the strenuous way when I first moved down here a decade ago; Since then, I’ve been careful to stay on top of the thermostat setting even going so far as to learn how to program the digital thermostat, but well not this year. This Summer, I’m turning all of that over to the latest bit of HVAC technology that I’ve had the HVAC professionals install. This Summer, I’ll be leaning on the smart thermostat to provide even more air conditioning savings than I’ve ever been able to produce. The HVAC professional set some basic parameters for the smart thermostat plus then told me to just let it be. I’m still wondering just how it can learn our patterns plus behavior. That’s what it does. It learns how my pal and I come plus go plus then adjusts the air conditioning so it’s not over cooling an empty house. I mean that’s oversimplifying it as there are plenty of other things it’s able to do to save on cooling costs. But I’ll be particularly interested to see just what this new HVAC technology can particularly do once the heat gets here.
