My wife and I were sitting in a restaurant enjoying a pleasant afternoon.
We were talking about the HVAC system and considering if it was time to buy a new one.
We had some problems over the last two years, and if it got any worse, we would need to have the entire system replaced. We were talking about what kind of HVAC system we wanted to buy. We didn’t have ductwork at this time. We have a boiler system in the house, and only use window air conditioning units. We weren’t sure if we wanted to go to the expense of installing ductwork and getting central heating and air conditioning. My husband suggested a mini split ductless HVAC system. Our only fear with this, is that we live in an area where it often goes below zero at night. We were just chatting and discussing HVAC when a gentleman came up to us. He said he was the owner of the local HVAC company and showed us his ID. He said he had overheard our conversation, and he was interested to know when we were going to have the HVAC system replaced? My husband said if he was listening, he would know we said we were considering a new HVAC system, but not that we were buying. He pushed his card at us, and said he would wait for our car. Even if he was the only local HVAC company owner, I wouldn’t have called him. He was too pushy and I couldn’t believe he was listening to our conversation, and told us he had.
