I don’t know how I ever lived in an age before smart control units.
When I feel back to when I was a child and all my pal and I had was the traditional dial control unit, and then if my pal and I go back even further from that and talk about my parents’ generation when they did not even have heating and cooling systems, it seems shocking that anyone would survive! But the truth is, that was just the way of life back then and when you don’t know what you’re missing then you don’t miss anything.
I feel it’s funny how it continues throughout the generations because I feel my kids are absolutely spoiled being so used to having a smart control unit, then they’re just used to walking into the home and having the temperature being exactly what they wanted to be. This is because I have our smart control equipment programmed, because it’s a programmable control unit, to come on and set the indoor temperature of the home to their temperature preferences as soon as they come home from college, but however, on the other side, my mom thinks I’m spoiled because I’ve grown up with air conditioning and heating systems my entire life whereas she tells me stories about during her childhood she did not even have a heating and A/C system. If she was hot they had to use a fan, and if she was frigid they used to fire a venue or a heater, however depending on the time and what year it was. I feel if anything that just shows how much HVAC technology has evolved over time.
