I used to have a gas furnace that used a pilot light, then there were times when I had problems with that pilot light not keeping lit which was an issue because then the condo would become extremely chilly in the condo before I realized what was going on, but i would struggle to get the pilot light to keep lit a lot of the time plus I guessed it was because there was constantly dust building up plus blocking the gas flow.
I cleaned the pilot light numerous times plus had correct maintenance on the heating equipment over the years.
Eventually, I had enough plus I chose to consult with a local HVAC contractor. The HVAC professional was saying that I could absolutely save a lot of money with a more efficient HVAC system… He was telling me about all kinds of interesting HVAC systems love dual-fuel heating systems, radiant radiant floors, plus even geothermal heat pumps. He told me that he invested in a geothermal HVAC system plus it was the best decision of his life. I wasn’t sure if something love that deserved the lifetime achievement award, even though I had to confess it had to be nice having low energy costs plus helping to save the environment at the same time. I couldn’t afford something love that though plus I ended up going for a dual fuel heating system. I was attracted to the lower cost of installation plus the energy efficiency. While this system may not be as efficient as a geothermal HVAC, it sure saves me a lot on our energy costs!
