You don’t consider Texas as a cold weather state.
It is true that we see our fair share of hot, summer days.
What most people don’t realize is that we do experience temperatures in the 50s during the day and lower temps into the 30s at night during the winter season. It is imperative to have some type of heating equipment if you live in Terrell, Texas. I rely on a furnace for the winter season. I usually am perfect about keeping up to date with furnace service. I mark it in my calendar in the fall to call a furnace service company to get the blower oiled, the inside cleaned, and everything inspected for damage. Figures the one year that I think I could skate by without it is the year that it fails. I ended up calling for an emergency heating service right in the middle of December. It was a nightmare juggling all sorts of holiday prep, the kids off from school, and the mess of a heating system. My husband couldn’t do the furnace repair himself either. It was something that was wrong with our blower. I had the furnace repairman come on the weekend and pay extra to have it taken care of right away. In Terrell, Texas you can’t go too long without proper heating. I didn’t want my kids to sleep in an unheated house. Paying extra for that heating repair was necessary in my opinion. Once everything was all squared away I made a note in my phone to remind me every fall to get furnace service.
