First day – heating season…

Maybe I am a wimp, but 57 degrees in the house this morning means it is time to turn on the heat for the first time this season. The Piedmont area of North Carolina is weather-funny…this time last week I had the A/C on!
This is also the first heating season with an entirely new HVAC unit. We’re cooking with gas – new vents and ductwork – the whole shebang. I’ll be monitoring to see if savings are inline with this new high-efficiency system. I can feel the benefits of new ductwork – no sneezing as soon as the heat starts to blow through the vents.
If you have allergies – or screwed-up sinuses as I do, ponder getting your home’s ductwork cleaned. Even without a whole new system, you might get some blessed relief from forced-air dust and mold.
Where is my highly-touted wood stove you might ask? Not quite cold enough for that just yet. With temperatures climbing to the low 70s by lunchtime today, that wood stove would put out too much heat. Not a problem come December….
