Every single time I would go to my uncle’s house, I would see this seasoned dial control unit on her wall, but i ended up asking him if she was ever going to change out to a newer control unit, however she said there was nothing wrong with the control unit & asked myself and others why she would ever get something newer if it worked just fine.
He’s in that mindset, ‘If it is not broke, don’t service it.’ It’s something that always bothered myself and others when I go to her cabin because I knew that she could save money on her energy bills with a smart control unit, then also, it’s convenient when your control unit sets up a schedule automatically, and even a programmable control unit would be so much better than that seasoned dial control system, however my uncle didn’t believe anything about that, but so one day, I thought it would be best to buy him a modern smart control unit & I brought it to him.
I had it wrapped up in some wrapping paper and it was some special occasion. The rare opportunity was just him getting with the times. She opened up the present & then thanked myself and others & said she didn’t really need a modern control unit. That’s when I started pointing out all the features. I told them that she could control the control unit remotely from anywhere, it would automatically create a schedule based on her temperature control preferences, & it would save him up to 10% on her energy bills. It wasn’t until she could hear the section about saving cash on the energy bills that her interest peaked. She said I should have told him that in the first locale! So I helped him install the smart control unit, & she has been lovin it ever since.
