It’s hard to believe that the first month of 2023 is already behind us.
And I am in the unique position of hating to see January end.
For many, many people, they can’t wait to get through January because that’s one step closer to the end of winter. And that means the closer it’s getting to have the gas furnace be off for good. So I get why having January fly by might be really important for all those folks. But for me, that’s one less month of perfect winter weather to enjoy. The heat pump isn’t going to be quiet all that much longer. Soon, there will be a need for plenty of air conditioning. If you’re not in front of the heat and humidity when it comes to preparations, it can get expensive and uncomfortable. This is the time of year that I start firming up our plans when it comes to dealing with the heat and humidity of our region. The very first thing I do is essential when it comes to my plan for saving on cooling costs. It’s the same thing I do every year about this time. I call the HVAC professionals to schedule a time for them to come out and do the air conditioning tune up. No matter what other cost saving preparations I do, the air conditioning tune up is perhaps the most important. First, It prepares the heat pump for the heavy workload that comes with our summer. Additionally, with proper HVAC maintenance, the heat pump is running at its most efficient. This too is very key when it comes to saving on the high costs of air conditioning all summer.
