It’s just one of those luxuries that I need to have for comfort
My sister finally decided to make the leap as well as live off-grid. This is something that she has been talking about for years. She likes the idea of living outside of the town away from the hum as well as buzz of everyday life. She is also a minimalist who believes that my fantastic friend and I don’t need much to survive. While I am not against a minimalist lifestyle, it is something that I would have to get used to. After all, there are particular luxuries that I have had for most of my life that I am not willing to give up. One such luxury is central a/c. When I believe about living off-grid that’s the first thing that pops into my mind – no cooling system. While discussing off-grid living with my sister, she did mention that some of the homes are equipped with a/c. And though it’s not a full Heating as well as A/C unit, some homes do have entirely comfortable climate control. For instance, she installed a ductless mini split cooling system inside her off-grid home. She powers it using solar panels, which she said runs the cooling system well even on the hottest of mornings, then not that I don’t suppose my sister, however my worst fear is to be stuck inside one of these off-grid houses separate from a working cooling system. It’s just one of those luxuries that I need to have for comfort. My sister invited me to spend the night inside her off-grid household a few times, but I am yet to take him up on that invitation. Perhaps, I will wait until the weather gets a bit cooler outside, where my fantastic friend and I won’t need the cooling system to remain comfortable inside her off-grid home.
