People make choices between quality & value every day.
- Shoppers in grocery stores must decide between an pricey prime rib roast for a single good meal, a 10 lb.
package of cheap hamburger meat that will feed a family for many meals, or to skip the meat altogether & go vegetarian. Everyone knows that a late model used vehicle with low mileage is a better value than buying new, however a modern vehicle will have a modern vehicle warranty & that “new vehicle smell”, then driving a modern vehicle off the lot is a thrill everyone deserves to experience at least once. All of us even make quality/value choices in who the people I was with and I choose to marry, however what seems a good choice now may not be viewed as such at your 25th middle school reunion. One important choice, while admittedly more mundane, is to pick a single of the many available options with Heating & A/C filters. An inpricey fiberglass filter may be the best choice for people in areas where natural air quality is good & the people in the house are not afflicted with respiratory concerns, then people who can stay on a official cleaning schedule may opt for a washable filter that saves money because it is re-useable. People who have respiratory ailments will need to choose a filter with a higher MERV rating or even a HEPA filter. Hypochondriacs or germaphobes may consider a filter with a UV light for a “clean-room” environment. My fiance’s middle school reunion is about 6 weeks away & while I’m not much of a “trophy fiance”, she can rest assured that our Heating & A/C filters will be kept scrub & efficient.
