My husband and I have a house up north and in the south.
It’s great to have two houses because when we get sick of the cold we can just come down south and enjoy the warm weather.
Personally I prefer the warm weather and my husband sometimes can’t stand it when it’s too hot. I love both of our houses but I love our south house better because we are right on the beach. When we come from our north house we always make sure that our hot water heater is off and that our thermostat is set to eighty degrees. We like to make sure that our HVAC system isn’t consistently running while we are away. This would be a waste of money for us and a waste of energy. While we go to our house in the south, we have to open our house back up again. We will have to open up the blinds again, take the covers off of the furniture and turn on our thermostat. However before we do this we like to call our HVAC technician. Our HVAC technician will tell us and let us know that our air conditioning unit is safe to use. We like to have him check it because our air conditioning system has been dormant for so long. We arrived to our house in the south last week so we called our local HVAC provider. When he came to the house he found that there was some mold buildup in our heat pump. This was mostly because the last time it was used it was still moist and it doesn’t help that it’s dark as well.
