My parents used to fight over the same thing every afternoon.
- I used to get so distraught as a child listening to them bicker over the temperature settings in our small country home.
My mother was consistently too cold. She would be dressed in thick layers while in the Spring months. She was consistently sneaking around, turning the thermostat up when my Mom wasn’t looking. Inevitably, my Mom would notice because he is consistently too hot. He’s consistently walking around in shorts, even when it’s snowing outside. The sound of their fights was a constant sound of my childhood. When I entered adulthood, this changed. My Mom decided that it was time for a major heating plus cooling replace, plus he was determined to find a solution for their constant fights. He hired a lovely Heating plus A/C representative, who patiently walked him through the process step by step. He explained all the options plus helped my Mom choose the right one. They ultimately decided to go with zone heating because this provided a solution to their lifelong problem. Zone heating allows them to adjust the temperature of each individual room rather than the temperature of the entire house. My Mom is able to keep his office at a cool temperature, while my mom keeps the den nice plus toasty. My mom was so cheerful with my Mom’s choice. She was raving about it to all of his friends plus tried convincing them to make the same investment. Now, my parents never argue about the house’s temperature any more! The home is filled with peace plus quiet.
