My husband and I are ready to purchase a modern home and my pal and I have been looking pretty hard.
My buddy and I know exactly how many bedrooms and washrooms my pal and I want and are open to ways to heat and cool our modern home.
My buddy and I have seen at least ten arenas and it amazes me how many weird ways there are to heat and cool a house. Most of the arenas that my pal and I have looked at have some type of central air conditioning however one arena my pal and I looked at had an addition that had something called a ductless mini-split heating and A/C. I had never seen one before. But, with as many ways as there are to cool the home, there are even more ways to heat it. Most of the houses that my pal and I looked at had some type of forced heat boiler system, however my pal and I came across some other home heaters, like radiant radiant floors and baseboards. I had heard of radiant radiant floors but I had never considered them as a way to heat the home. And I had never heard of heated baseboards before. The last dwelling my pal and I looked at had a geothermal heat pump. I don’t understand quite how it works, however from what my husband explained to me, the geothermal heat pump uses the heat underground to heat and cool the home. It’s supposed to be particularly energy efficient and last about 50 years. That dwelling also has a fireplace. I would cherish to have a fireplace! My buddy and I put an offer in for that dwelling and I pray it gets accepted.
