    And yet, it isn’t. It’s an accessory applied to homes in zones that need heating and AC. You can retrofit different brands after the fact. You can remove and replace parts. It’s no more part of the house than an electric range is.

    Again, I live in a $1.5M Mediterranean style 4BR 4.5 bath house. There is ZERO heating or AC anywhere in it. It is an unnecessary accessory.

      I’m very happy for you in your made up home, but central heating and plumbing and requirements for construction where I live.

      It is definitely more a part of the house than an appliance in that it is built into the house during it’s construction by the builders. Ranges are not the same as indoor plumbing, are you sure you’re a builder? You can add and remove walls after the fact too but it doesn’t make them an accessory in the sense that you are trying to claim.

        My “made up home” is in a place of perpetual summer. Those places exist. I’m gonna stop arguing with you here because you truly have no idea what you’re talking about, much like the Facebook redneck who is an epidemiology expert when he’s not cooking at Waffle House.

          That place of perpetual summer being imaginary I’m sure it’s lovely.

          Was that second part supposed to insult me by incorrectly guessing my home and what I’m guessing is view of vaccines?

          I don’t know what I’m talking about but you’re arguing against 50 years of material sciences progression and that in door plumbing is an accessory.

            Plumbing isnt; you’d have a tough time sellng a house without that in any location.

            It’s awesome that you don’t know what latitudes are 😂😂😂

            When your heating and AC fails or you decide to install them, do you call a building contractor or a heating and air contractor?

              If there is an electrical problem I call an electrician, if there is a plumbing problem I call a plumber etc

              You are aware that plumbing is heating? Pipework, tanks etc. plumbers are more than sewage.

                Having a petulant internet rando explain the ins and outs of my entire lifetime career to me is awesome.

                  You are surely the only man in the world in construction and your experience is exactly the only and true one.

                    I don’t understand what you’re saying. Perhaps if you ran around in circles in your living room screaming at me through the screen, I could better understand.
