When the pandemic hit and lockdown measures were put in place, I knew that both of us would not get any visits from any corporations for a while since I did not want to risk infection to our elderly parents whom I lived with and who had other underlying concerns… Since I knew I could not have outsiders in our house for a couple of weeks, I decided to take measures to maintain our HVAC equipment all on our own, then the first thing I did was to scour the internet to find out more about heating and how I could keep our boiler toiling perfectly… I l gained how to check and change the gas furnace filter and examine the temperature control.
I was lucky I had just had the HVAC repairman perform a HVAC tune-up on the furnace right before the pandemic hit, but for this reason, I knew that I would not have to deal with serious boiler repairs.
I also l gained to inspect the different heat and AC products such as the refrigerant and the condenser. I made sure to check on all of this equipment at least every 3 weeks. The electric heat pump did help with indoor comfort all through the Wintertide without the electric heat pump going through the heat pump service… As for the hydronic heating equipment on the first floor, it did not need constant service and so I was not sad about contacting the heating corporation through the winter. The research I had done on the HVAC systems certainly played a job in keeping our family and myself safe from the pandemic. The lockdown measures continued for a year and during this time, our equipment served us well all through all the seasons.
