I know I’m just fatigued of dealing with being the air conditioning sheriff. That’s pretty much what it comes down to. I’m done with trying to get most people in my home to pull the same way when it comes to saving on heating plus cooling costs. My friend and I totally have the heating costs wired so that’s not a problem. But there is also zero effort needed when it comes to keeping the heating costs in check. This is because we live in a region where we just don’t have much demand at all from the heat pump for heat. Of course, it’s completely the opposite the other 8 months of the year. But really, it’s always been about the four month period during the Summer that the air conditioning costs get out of hand. I would have family meetings, provide incentives, show the energy bills plus just basically plead with my family to help me. But that just didn’t happen. There would be a sort of disingenuous effort in order to keep dad’s head from exploding. But then it was right back to no thermostat discipline or any regard for what all that air conditioning was costing us. So I just had the Heating plus A/C company install a smart thermostat plus that will be that. I’m disabling the manual mode for the smart thermostat plus letting it run the show when it comes to the heating plus cooling of my house. If anyone has a concern with that, they can talk to the Heating plus A/C technology. I’m out of the business of managing the quality heating plus air of my condo because the smart thermostat will do it better.
