I recently purchased washable air filters for my central heating and air conditioning system. I’d previously purchased disposable air filters, so I wanted to see if washable air filters could be more cost-effective. So, after the appropriate amount of time had passed, I pulled out the air filter and attempted to wash it clean. It could not stand up to […]
Buying a trash product
I recently decided to purchase some washable air filters for my central heating and air conditioning system. I had relied on a different sort of air filter prior to this, but these sounded more convenient. I rather liked the idea of being able to simply wash the air filters and then put them right back. They were more or less […]
Not sold on washable air filters
I recently purchased some washable air filters for my central heating and air conditioning system the other month. I thought they were going to be more convenient to use than what I was used to. When it came time to clean one of these supposedly washable air filters it actually fell apart in my hands! I was utterly shocked. I […]
I returned them
I bought some washable air filters for my central heating and air conditioning system the other month. It came time to wash one of the washable air filters for reuse the other day and the thing flaked apart! It was utterly ridiculous! I was so mad I did not want to even mess with more of these washable air filters. […]
Sometimes the old ways are best
I should have considered the fact that dial thermostats were as simple as they could possibly be to begin with Sometimes it seems like the advances that we take in technology causes us to take two steps forward and one step back. Remember a time when you could turn a TV on and it would come on immediately, and when […]
What's wrong with dial thermostats?
A couple weeks ago, I went out to purchase a smart thermostat. I don’t know what possessed me to invest in such needlessly advanced technology, but I heard that it would make controlling the thermostat and the central heating and air conditioning system a little bit more simple. I guess curiosity got the best of me. However, I did not […]
I'm too old-fashioned for new technology
There’s so many crazy different kinds of new technology out there that I simply have no need for in my life. The most recent kind of frivolous technology that I encountered was a smart thermostat. I don’t know how I got suckered in to try one out, but I did. And it will be the last time that I ever […]
Smart thermostats are not for me
I recently went out and purchased my very first smart thermostat a couple months ago. It was the first smart thermostat that I ever tried. I have to say that I was not impressed in the least! I’m not sure what it was but I do not care for this newfangled technology and I much prefer the older models. I […]
My first and my last
I went out and purchased a smart thermostat about 2 months ago. It was my first smart thermostat ever. And I have to say that it will be my last smart thermostat as well. I really do not like the smart thermostat. It just is not for me. Maybe it is because I am older and not of this generation’s […]
A friend helped solve a conundrum of mine
One day I was discussing with my neighbor the problems I was having with the air flow in my bedroom. For whatever reason, there is only a single vent in the room and air flow is restricted. His suggestion was that I install a ceiling fan to help circulate the air and cause a wind chill so that my bedroom […]
