My spouse and I are looking for a more energy efficient house.
We have been thinking about moving for a while now, however up until the last couple of weeks it was all just an idea that the two of us had.
We had never thought about it seriously before, but then the two of us started to have all kinds of trouble with the heating and cooling unit in our house. I don’t know if the life expectancy of our heating and A/C system was just up or what, however the whole thing seemed to stop working all at once. Back in the fall before the weather started cooling down a lot, the air conditioning unit stopped working. We thought that the two of us would just wait around on that and not get it repaired, because it was going to be wintertime soon anyway. However, the idea that we needed to get air conditioning maintenance done was hanging over our heads. Then, lo and behold, as soon as the two of us needed to start running the furnace, the furnace stopped working too. Now, we both are living in a beach house without a working air conditioning unit or a working furnace. Since we think we are gonna have to spend a whole lot of money anyway, the two of us went ahead and started looking for another house. If we could find a good energy efficient house, the two of us might just sell our current one without replacing anything. I’ve been thinking about finding a better energy efficient home anyway, and the heating and cooling bills are too high here even when everything is working well.
