They made pretty short work of installing the ductless heat pump and we really enjoyed having that cooling comfort during the summer
I’m sort of blown away by how spectacular the winter is up here at the cabin. And I just wish we had added residential HVAC earlier. This cabin has been in our family for generations but until recently, it was totally rustic. There has always been a wood stove for heating that place as long as I’ve been alive. And it’s a monster of a wood stove indeed. However, it’s not the easiest beast to get lit. Subconsciously, I think this was the main reason that I wasn’t getting up there in the winter. I hated coming into a stone cold cabin and then having to fight for an hour or more to get the stove going. For sure, once the stove was cranking, there was more heating in that cabin than anyone would ever need. But by the time I would get the stove cooking, we were all freezing. Yet, that’s not why we chose to add the ductless heat pump. We added that residential HVAC because we wanted some air conditioning comfort in the summer. And since we were giving the whole place a bit of a face lift, we called the HVAC company as well. They made pretty short work of installing the ductless heat pump and we really enjoyed having that cooling comfort during the summer. But I’m loving the fact that I have instant heating in the cabin during the winter thanks to the ductless heat pump. And that fact has led to me getting up here nearly a half dozen times since the fall.
