Thought it was a bad dream but it was my gas furnace

And it would have been if I had remembered to call the HVAC company to schedule the heating maintenance in the fall

I really like to get a good nights sleep. And with the physical sort of work that I do, that’s usually not a problem. I work a job that keeps me out in the elements so just coming home to great HVAC is super relaxing. But once I eat and relax for a bit, I’m a goner. It’s everything I can do just to brush my teeth before I crawl into bed. And I’m like the first one to bed as I rise and get after it really early each day. One night, I was dreaming that there was someone banging on the pipes in my house. It took my wife to jostle me awake as there was real banging around that was going on. It wasn’t just a dream. The sound came from the basement and by the time I got down there, the gas furnace had shut itself down. There was an acrid smell in the air and I could tell the gas furnace was really, really hot. There was no alternative but to call for emergency HVAC service. It was really cold outside and we needed to get the HVAC heating back on. The HVAC technician who came out was awesome. He was really nice and got right to work. The HVAC repair took about 30 minutes or so. It was a part that had needed to be replaced. And it would have been if I had remembered to call the HVAC company to schedule the heating maintenance in the fall. That made the check to the HVAC company even that much harder to write.
