I’m getting sick of living in a cramped studio apartment.
I have absolutely no space if I want to buy a new piece of furniture, or even a new keyboard or guitar.
And whenever I have friends over to drink beer plus watch sports, there never seems to be enough space for most people to comfortably kneel down. They’re constantly complaining that I don’t have a bigger couch, however I couldn’t fit it in my living room if I could afford one. The kitchen is entirely cramped as well, however I don’t see the reason for a bigger space if I’m only living by myself. If I started seeing someone, I might consider looking for a bigger apartment. In the meantime, I’ll keep saving a little bit of money every week while improving my credit over time. What I want is my own apartment some day, one where I can make whatever swings or renovations that I want. One feature that I hope to afford when the time comes is a geothermal heat pump. Instead of sourcing heat from outdoor air, it takes its heat from deep within the ground where temperatures are relatively stable for the entire year. Traditional heat pumps have to work above ground where some areas see temperatures colder than 10 degrees below zero during the Winter time season. Since several heat pumps struggle to harvest ambient heat as temperatures get severely cold, sourcing the heat from underground completely bypasses this concern. However, these heat pumps require channels of piping to be installed deep in the ground. Depending on what kind of plan you choose, the replacement costs could exceed $10,000 in some instances. However, the energy efficiency is unparalleled for indoor heating.
