The only pisser with a heat pump is, the life expectancy isn't all that long - like 10-12 years. Outside a/c units will go 20-25 years, and gas furnaces will last at least that long. I think that if I were installing a new HVAC system from scratch and that gas was available to the area, that I'd do the gas furnace with electric a/c and forego the heat pump.

Heat pumps don't work well below a certain temp as well. They freeze and shutdown. From what I've heard...
 
Morning everyone. Hope the coffee is hot, the buns warm, and the treadmill not too boring! Looked up my work schedule for company recurrent and I have the 4am to noon slot this iteration 😭. That means 0245 wake-ups for me over the next few days….ugh…I’m still on summer sleep in schedule!

Oh well, it’s only for a week. Time to suck it up…Morning Zen…take me away!

Ugh! I hate getting up early! Good luck with that, H!
 
I'm sorry. Morning is not my best time to play online. I have a bad habit of speaking the first thought that pops in my mind. This is why I wake up several hours before I go to work and adjust the filter :censored:. Poor Wat is the only one awake at that time responding so he gets the worst of it. Sorry Wat.
Somehow, I think poor Wat might be liking this! 🤭🤣🤭

This is true, and that is why they have electric back-up "strip" heat. It shows on the t-stat as "emergency heat." That means that your electric meter is in danger of spinning so fast that it'll come off the house and go into orbit.


That may be a bit over-dramatized, but you get the picture.
 
Im a few pages behind I think. Up early to drive to Philly for the day. Looking forward to the people and meetings there but not the commute.

Luckily the 4H fair and tractor pulls are tonite, and I’ll meet my wife there. It’s only an hour from Philly and 30 minutes south of us so it’s actually good logistically. Wife will catch a ride with some friends and I’ll bring her home.

Eat some fun fair food for dinner.
 
Oh stop!!! You do fine, tyvm. I reckon we get to warm up a bit and let the coffee take effect before we go out and people.


Speaking of, I had to go to a sit-down with the dipshit drywall butcher and his boss, who was pissed. When I showed up - they called me to come to the office like in grade school - everyone got more pleasant. All I did was squint at them a little. And I didn't apologize. There were no repercussions. Someone may be having a few shots of tequila tonight to assuage his hurt widdle feelers . . . .
I find the silent stare to be much more effective than ranting! 😅🤣
 
Tequila used to be my drink...:cautious: I could use a bottle to celebrate but my damn infusions won't allow it. I get one night a year to drink and doc has to schedule it. He said no to my bottle of patron...party pooper. Prolly a good thing though. Don't need to get arrested for running outside in the rain naked trying to do a moon dance thinking I'm on a magic carpet ride with the goal of telling everyone exactly what I think (usually it's all good stuff though because I'm too fucking nice) Damn, would be fun though
Oh, girl! I want to go out with you on your one night per year! 🤣🤣
