I wouldn’t be surprised if they were operating the air conditioning system at an extremely high level without any regard for the energy bills that would follow.
I am getting pretty nervous about returning home. I have been staying with my mom for almost 3 months now unexpectedly. I never thought that I would be here for this long. Honestly, it’s a bit of a drag because I am still paying rent in my actual hometown. I’m getting nervous about making the drive all the way back home. I am also rather concerned about the mess that I’m going to encounter whenever I get there. You see, for the past several months I haven’t had any say in the indoor air quality control settings. My roommates have been living in the house without me. This means, nobody has been keeping an eye on our energy bills or the wear and tear on our heating, cooling, and ventilation equipment. In fact, I worry that my roommates have never touched the thermostat since I left. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were operating the air conditioning system at an extremely high level without any regard for the energy bills that would follow. I know that they don’t pay close attention to the monthly utilities because their finances aren’t as tight as mine. Furthermore, I am aware that they do not care about the heating and cooling equipment the way that I do. I know how expensive it can be used to have to call a professional heating and cooling technician for an emergency air conditioning repair service. I am honestly terrified that I will be bankrupt to the moment that I step foot back in my own house.
