So I was doing our best to simply save as much money redoing this house as I could. Paying the mortgage alone kind of forces that upon a guy. Still, I had plenty of help. My sibling & all his meathead friends were more than willing to jump in. Of course I promised to the foot the bill for all the pizza & beer involved. After years of being in house where I would sweat through the summer time heat due to weak Heating & A/C cooling, I was now a homeowner. And I did it on our own which also impresses me since it took me nearly a decade of saving to make the downpayment. I had a day job although I didn’t come apartment to that weak Heating & A/C & hang out. After our real job, I went straight to our side hustle to make extra money. But all of that has finally paid off. The two of us were getting along on the renovations & were close to ready to have me move out of the house with the so so heating & cooling. But then, every one of us hit a heating & cooling snafu of our own. When the Heating & A/C business came out to do the inspection, he found that the HVAC duct was just shot. So every one of us had to pivot as I didn’t have the funds to suddenly rip out & upgrade the entire HVAC duct. But the Heating & A/C professional came through for me by introducing me to the ductless heat pump. No HVAC duct necessary, obviously. I now have a ductless multi split & I’m super comfortable with all this quality heating & air.
