We are going to try and make our HVAC system last for one more year before replacing it.
The money has gone into investments on stocks that are way down so hopefully next year we can get an HVAC system for free. It all depends on the market and what happens over the next year. So that being said, let’s talk about how to make your HVAC system keep going when it is on its last legs. HVAC equipment is a significant investment, so it’s important to do everything you can to make it last. One way to do this is to have your HVAC unit serviced regularly by a reputable company. This will ensure that it’s running efficiently and help to identify any potential problems before they become major repairs and cause you to spend all of your hard earned money. Another way to prolong the life of your HVAC equipment is to be smart about its usage. During the summer months, use a smart thermostat to minimize the amount of time your air conditioner is running. When it’s not in use, make sure all doors and windows are closed so that cooled air isn’t escaping. Also, make sure your windows are up to date and not leaking air, which can happen with older style windows. And during the winter, have your furnace serviced and make sure the filters are clean so that it doesn’t have to work overtime. By following these simple tips, you can help to ensure that your HVAC equipment lasts for many years to come.
