I did a bout a year ago. I had a couple problems with my HVAC unit, but nothing major. I had an HVAC buddy that would come over and help me diag problems. it was gas-forced-air heater, I also had central air inn the house, if you could call it that. They called it refrigerated air out there. Some houses had "swamp coolers" which were a TERRIBLE idea, but it worked. It use water to cool the air being blowin into the house. It didn't work well when the humidity got over around 40%, though. the swamp coolers were known to ruin houses though. It would blow humidity into houses and it would warp doors, frames and pretty much everything.

I had a Flame Roll-out switch issue once with the heater. it was one of four safety switches. Something in that unit also had the evaporator for the AC in it somewhere. but the air intake was on the floor, of all g-d places. The fan and the intake air space gets filthy and you literally have to crawl in there with a vacuum to clean it.. and MY skinny ass just BARELY fit in there. 0_o..

The inspection on my house came back pretty good. Just minor stuff. Outlets not hooked up, no junction box in the ceiling for the garage door opener.. etc etc. Replaced a light fixture in the hallway because I kept knockin my head on it.

Anyway.. was 1220 sq ft, built in 1980 or 79. 3br, 2 bath, 2 car garage on appx 1/4 acre.
