How Swede It Is

(I posted this back in July 2007.  Since it will be warmer soon and all my fellow Swedes-at-Heart will be cranking up the AC, I was compelled to re-post this.  Flatch hopes it is helpful.)

I know some of you (based on my previous posts) may think I'm full of brown runny, but this is serious stuff that can save you money.

Check your HVAC system now!  If you have installed a Purafilter 2000, hyped to be the best filter on the planet, get it out!  I installed one on Sat and by Monday my AC had shut down due to the airflow restriction - the filter works TOO well!!

So, don't let it happen to you.  Use the cheaper filters you can get in a 4 pack at Wal-Mart for 3 bucks.   They don't filter as well and you have to replace them more often, but at least it keeps the AC techs away.

I buy the cheapest filters I can find, and simply replace them every month. Works for me.

Right now is a great time to call your serviceman to come out and check the system. Thanks for the reminder Flatch!

To DW - Never heard of that game. If I do a search on "bin laden liqours", is my driveway gonna fill up with black Crown Vics full of Virginia farm boys with Glocks?

To BBBob - my A/C people have a deal on A/C units: Buy one and get a 2ND for the same price! What a bargain!

They Must have been really, really good right? They cost thousands each!!

Oh well....MY BAD!

I was born after waiving extradition in October 1959. My mother was a goalie coach for the pond hockey team at a juvenile detention center. My father was the first to combine Doritos with Clearasil, thus causing and curing acne at the same time. Think of me as the one who pushes the Bull***t button on the game show of life. My interests are Swedish maritime hymnals, Victorian iodine bottles and four-digit numbers.
