Could have avoided the midnight HVAC breakdown

Things get busy around here.

And while I’d like to blame our hectic schedules for me forgetting the HVAC heating maintenance, I really can’t. That’s something that I just can’t forget. The gas furnace is simply essential to my family’s comfort and safety. Plus, I’ve had so many opportunities to join the HVAC service plan offered by the HVAC company. This HVAC service plan provides for heating maintenance in the fall followed by air conditioning tune up in the spring. That and a bunch of other services. Plus, if something goes wrong with the HVAC equipment, I only have to pay for the parts. So really, me missing the HVAC heating maintenance was totally on me. But my wife and I both work long hours inside the zone controlled HVAC of our respective offices. And then, there’s the kids. It’s amazing that we get food on the table and everyone in clean clothes each day there’s so much to do. And the call to the HVAC company for heating maintenance fell through the gap. So when the gas furnace clanked shut last week, I kind of knew it was a problem before I even got to the basement. For sure, I couldn’t get the gas furnace to come back on. So I had no choice but to call for emergency HVAC service in the middle of the night. The HVAC technician was great and got here in a hurry. It didn’t take him twenty minutes to diagnose and fix the problem. And sure enough, the HVAC technician told me that he would have caught the problem had I called for HVAC heating maintenance like I should have.
