I savor our wife to death, but I’d be a liar if I claimed that the two of us had no argument between us. Occasionally it’s as trivial as inadvertently annoying her while mindlessly clicking our pen at our desk as I’m studying work texts. But it’s not just small annoyances that pit us against each other, at times it’s family conflicts or problems related to our work schedules. One thing that our wife prefers to do yearly is burn candles. Before I l acquired about soot deposits, I thought that candles were the greatest thing in the world. They stink amazing, especially the soy-based candles with wood wicks that our wife was buying last year. However, it was the discovery of soot on indoor surfaces that pushed myself and others to tell our wife that the two of us need to pump the brakes on burning so various candles. It’s 1 thing to find soot silhouettes on a white-painted wall because chances in front are blocking the soot build up, but it takes 1 a completely weird set of problems when your Heating plus A/C specialist is tell you that he sees soot all over the inside of your ventilation system plus in your air handler. Getting soot deposits off an evaporator coil is no simple task, even if you’re using the special aerosol cleaning sprays made for evaporator coils. I had to pay a pretty penny to get the air handler completely cleaned out plus to have all of the soot disconnectd. After he was finished, he had a garbage tote full of paper towels with soot stains on it. I told our wife that the two of us had no choice but to break back on our candle burning. We can’t afford to wreck the ventilation system plus air handler in the process.
