The HVAC tool box

I am a fairly huge fan of the Three Stooges.

The plots of their short films often have them actually working at differing tasks where they mess things up resulting in their “brand” of comedic humor.

Aside from slapstick humor, the films offer a look into the reality of what life was similar to in the 1940s. One short film titled “An Ache in Every Stake” features “The Boys” struggling with bringing blocks of ice as was relatively common in that era. In a single scene, “Curly” totes a sizable block of ice up a fairly lengthy staircase only to learn it has melted to the size of a tiny ice cube as he reaches the top. The amusing image of that ice melting reminds me of how ineffective the regular Heating in addition to A/C air duct is in the average residence. Any AC’s efficiency is pretty much measured using the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER), a ratio of the cooling output to the energy consumed. Unluckily, that cooling output is further limited as the air is pushed through the air duct in addition to into your kitchen or dining room. According to some estimates available, as much as 40% of the cool air produced is totally lost. The same percentage also applies to sizzling air lost in that same air duct when the oil furnace is working regularly. There is honestly no way to eliminate heating or cooling losses in your system of ductwork, however there are ways to minimize it. Having proper insulation is an evident necessity to keep the conditioned air that you pay for inside the ductwork system that you have. Another step to take if you pay attention to when your energy bills are rising is to have a Heating in addition to A/C machine professional check for any leaks in addition to gaps in the air duct system! Keeping the air duct entirely clean in addition to free of debris in addition to dirt will also help get the HVAC treated air to it’s final resting place.

The same percentage applies to warm air lost in that same HVAC duct when the gas heating equipment is running at full blast.

I am honestly an unashamed fan of the Three Stooges. The plots of their short films often have them working at jobs where they easily mess things up resulting in their “brand” of comedic craziness! Aside from slapstick humor, the movies offer a look into what life was similar to in the 1940s… One short movie titled “An Ache in Every Stake” features “The Boys” delivering blocks of ice as was a normal thing during that time. In a single scene, “Curly” carries a large block of ice up a terribly long staircase only to learn it has melted to approximately the size of a small ice cube as he gets to the top. The funny image of that ice shrinking reminds me of how inefficient the regular Heating, Ventilation and A/C air duct is in the average house. Any AC’s efficiency is measured using the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER), a ratio of the cooling output to the energy consumed. Unluckily, that cool output is further decreased as the air goes through the HVAC duct plus into your preferred areas to relax. According to different estimates, as much as 40% of the cool air produced is lost inside the ductwork system. The same percentage applies to warm air lost in that same HVAC duct when the gas heating equipment is running at full blast. There is honestly no way to eliminate heating or cooling losses in your air duct but there are ways to minimize it. Having great insulation is an obvious necessity to keep the conditioned air that you pay for inside the air duct. Another easy step to take if you notice your energy bills rising is to have a Heating, Ventilation and A/C equipment professional have a look for any leaks plus gaps in the air duct. Of course, keeping the air duct perfectly clean plus free of contaminants plus dirt will also help get more usable warm or cool air to its final endpoint.

Energy saving tips

I am a true fan of the Three Stooges… The plots of their short movies often have them doing crazy jobs where they invariably ruin everything resulting in their “brand” of comedic chaos.

• Apart from slapstick humor, the movies offer a glimpse into what life was sort of like in the 1940s.

A certain short movie titled “An Ache in Every Stake” features “The Boys” delivering numerous blocks of ice as was proper in that era! In a certain scene, “Curly” totes a giant block of ice up a rather lengthy staircase only to learn that it has melted to approximately the size of a little ice cube as he reaches the top. The amusing image of that ice shrinking reminds me of how inefficient the typical Heating plus Air Conditioning ductwork is in the average dwelling. Any AC’s efficiency is actually measured using the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER), a ratio of the cooling output to the energy that is being consumed… Sadly, that cool output is further lessened as the air makes its way through the ductwork plus into your residing room or home office. According to many estimates, as much as 40% of the cool air produced is completely lost. The same percentage applies to sizzling air lost in that same ductwork system when the heating appliance is running at full crank. There is no way to get rid of heating or cooling losses in your ductwork however there are ways to actually minimize it. Excellent insulation is an obvious necessity to keep the conditioned air that you pay for inside the ductwork. Another step to take if you notice your energy costs going up is to have a Heating plus Air Conditioning professional look for leaks plus gaps in the ductwork. Keeping the ductwork perfectly clean plus free of debris plus dirt will also help get more usable sizzling or cool air to its actual destination.

 

What ductwork does for you

I am a pretty serious fan of the Three Stooges.

The plots of their short films often have them laboring at jobs where they invariably mess things up resulting in their “brand” of comedic genius.

Apart from slapstick humor, the films offer a glimpse into what life was actually like in the 1940s! One short film titled “An Ache in Every Stake” features “The Boys” delivering blocks of ice as was common in that particular era. In one particular scene, “Curly” totes a massive block of ice up a long staircase only to discover it has melted to the size of a small ice cube as he reaches the top. The amusing image of that ice shrinking reminds me of how inefficient the regular Heating plus A/C ductwork happened to be in the average home. Any AC’s efficiency is measured using the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER), a ratio of the cooling output to the energy consumed. Regrettably, that cool output is further lowered as the air moves through the ductwork system plus into your living room or kitchen space. According to certain estimates, as much as 40% of the cool air produced is entirely lost. The same percentage goes for hot air lost in that same system of ductwork when the heating device is running at full blast. There is no way to get rid of heating or cooling losses in your ductwork system but there are many ways to minimize it. Excellent insulation is a true necessity to keep the conditioned air that you pay for inside the HVAC duct. Another step to take if you notice your utility bills going up is to have a Heating plus A/C device professional check for any leaks plus gaps in the HVAC duct. However keeping the ductwork system washed plus free of debris plus dirt will also help get more hot or cool air to its appropriate destination.

I read a fairly interesting article that tried to answer the question: Do our critter friends prefer us? When I hold up a treat for my animal, I am not sure if my cat actually likes me or just the treat, but surely this is not a valid test… One scientific test ran MRI scans on a bunch of cats while subjecting them to smells that were not known to them to compare their reactions to other smells that they knew.

The results easily showed that the cat owner’s scent catapults the kitty brain into an absolute frenzy of interest in an area called a reward center. The cats prioritize the owner’s smell and this is a form of actual love directed to their main benefactors, according to the study. I potentially could be paranoid, but I swear my HVAC machine is trying to use smells to prove if I prefer it. I’m not attached to any MRI machine that tests my brain or anything crazy like that, but I’m sure that my scan would resemble that of any test animal subject. In past years, I have smelled the “rotten egg” smell and the smell of gas that triggered my brain to suspect a minor gas leak. I really am glad that our HVAC machine professional took care of the issue quickly. I was subjected to another HVAC smell test when a stage of humid weather induced an algae growth in my drain pipes… Another time I smelled what smelled something like a pile of unwashed socks, but it was not a laundry setback at all. Something “organic” had managed to get into the oil furnace heat exchanger. I prove my absolute adoration for my HVAC machine by having it worked on by a qualified HVAC professional two times every year. That is when the joy centers in my brain completely become activated as I breathe in the clean air with the assurance that my HVAC machine does indeed prefer me.

I was reading an article the other day that tried to answer the question: Do our animal pals like us? When I hold up a treat for my kitty, I am not sure if my pet loves me or the treat. Of course, this is not a valid test. One scientific test ran MRI scans on cats while subjecting them to varying odors that were not actually common to them to compare their reactions to other smells that they were familiar with! The results showed that the pet owner’s scent catapults their brain into a hysteria of activity in an area known as a reward center. The cats prioritize the owner’s smell & this, the study said, is a form of preference directed to their main benefactors. I may be severely paranoid, but I swear my HVAC equipment is making an attempt to use odors to prove if I like it. I’m not actually attached to any MRI equipment that tests my brain activity, however I’m sure that my scan would resemble that of any test cat. Over the past years, I have smelled the “rotten egg” smell & the odor of gas that triggered my brain to truly think we had a minor gas leak, and happily, our HVAC professional took care of it in no time. I was subjected to another HVAC odor test when a stage of humid weather created an algae growth in my drain pipes. Another time I smelled what seemed like a pile of unclean socks, however it was not a laundry drawback. Something “organic” had managed to get into the furnace heat exchanger. I prove my preference to my HVAC equipment by having it serviced by a qualified HVAC expert at least twice each year. That is when the pleasure centers in my brain start going as I breathe in the wonderful odor-free air with the assurance that my HVAC equipment does indeed like me.

I was reading an article that tried to answer the question: Do our furry animal friends love us? When I hold up a treat for my pet, I am not certain if my pet prefers me or the treat. This is not a valid test though… One scientific test ran MRI scans on pets while subjecting them to numerous smells that were uncommon for them to compare their reactions to other particular smells that they knew very well! The results showed that the pet owner’s scent catapults the canine brain into a frenzy of activity in a place referred to as a reward center. The pets basically prioritize the owner’s actual odor & this, the study claimed, is a form of love that happens to be directed to their main benefactors. I possibly could be paranoid, even though I swear my Heating & A/C appliance is using smells to prove if I love it. I’m not attached to any MRI appliance that tests my brain activity, but I’m relatively sure that my scan would resemble that of any test animal. Over the past few years, I have smelled that “rotten egg” stink & the stink of gas that triggered my brain to suspect some kind of gas leak. I was happy when our Heating & A/C appliance specialist inspected it hastily. I was subjected to another Heating & A/C stink test when a period of humid weather caused an algae growth in my drain pipes. Another time I was smelling what seemed to be a pile of unwashed socks, but it was not a laundry setback. Something “organic” had managed to get into the heating appliance heat exchanger. I prove my love to my Heating & A/C by having it inspected by a qualified Heating & A/C professional at least twice each year. That is when the satisfaction centers in my brain easily become activated as I breathe in the scrubbed & stink-free air with the assurance that my Heating & A/C appliance does indeed love me.

I actually studied an article that attempted to answer the question: Do our creature buddies truly love us? When I hold up a pet treat, I am not sure if my pet enjoys me or the treat. This is not a valid test, and one scientific test ran MRI scans on pets while subjecting them to various smells that were unofficial to compare their reactions to other smells that they actually knew… The results showed that the pet owner’s scent catapults the pet brain into a frenzy of interest in an area called a reward center. The pets prioritize the owner’s smell plus this, the study claimed, is a certain type of love directed to their main benefactors. I potentially could be paranoid, but I swear my HVAC device is trying to use smells to prove if I love it. I’m not attached to any MRI machine that tests my brain interest, but I’m certain that my scan would resemble that of any test pet. Over the past couple of years, I have smelled the “rotten egg” smell plus the smell of gas that triggered my brain to suspect a gas leak. Fortunately, our HVAC serviceman worked on it abruptly. I was subjected to another HVAC smell test when a phase of severely humid weather caused an algae growth in my drainpipes. Another time I smelled what seemed like a pile of unwashed socks, but it was not a laundry complication. Something “organic” had made its way into the gas furnace heat exchanger. I prove my love to my HVAC device by having it worked on by a qualified HVAC professional approximately twice each year. That is when the satisfaction centers in my brain easily become activated as I breathe in the fresh air with the assurance that my HVAC device does indeed enjoy me.

I read an article that tried to answer the question: Do our animal friends love us? When I hold up a doggie treat, I am not sure if my dog loves me or the treat, but this is not a valid test.

One scientific test ran MRI scans on dogs while subjecting them to odors that were unfamiliar to compare their reactions to other smells that they knew.

The results showed that the dog owner’s scent catapults the canine brain into a frenzy of activity in an area called a reward center. The dogs prioritize the owner’s smell and this, the study claimed, is a form of love directed to their main benefactors. I may be paranoid, but I swear my HVAC unit is trying to use odors to prove if I love it. I’m not attached to any MRI machine that tests my brain activity, but I’m sure that my scan would resemble that of any test dog. Over the past few years, I have smelled the “rotten egg” smell and the odor of gas that triggered my brain to suspect a minor gas leak. Luckily, our HVAC technician took care of it quickly. I was subjected to another HVAC odor test when a period of humid weather caused an algae growth in my drainpipes. Another time I smelled what seemed like a pile of unwashed socks, but it was not a laundry problem. Something “organic” had gotten into the furnace heat exchanger. I prove my love to my HVAC by having it serviced by a qualified HVAC technician at least twice each year. That is when the pleasure centers in my brain get activated as I breathe in the clean and odor-free air with the assurance that my HVAC system does indeed love me.
