Presidential Inaugurations

HVAC is the abbreviation for Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. According to Wikipedia, HVAC is the "technology of indoor and automotive environmental comfort".

While an HVAC unit is what performs all the heating, ventilation and air conditioning through convenient regulation of temperature and climate inside a room or building. To better understand how an HVAC works - it simply processes warm air to the interior of the building and creates an acceptable air quality and temperature at the most efficient cost for consumers.

Heating

Heating is the process of bringing of heat to different parts of the building, specifically to ducts and piping to efficiently distribute air on building spaces.

Ventilating

Ventilating is the process of controlling air temperature to make it acceptable for a certain space, as well as removing several components mixed with the air like smoke, moist, dust, odors, etc.

Air Conditioning

Is the process of removing heat or simply cooling the air by using refrigerant components like ice.

How Much Would An HVAC Cost?

The cost of having an HVAC unit depends on several factors like size of the home, and the components that will be use to for the HVAC unit.

It's the Vice President-elect, and here is why:

U.S. Const. Amend. XXV:

"Section 1. In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President.

Section 2. Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.

Section 3. Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, and until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary, such powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President as Acting President.

Section 4. Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office."

To see to further eventuality, the Presidential Succession Act, Title 3, United States Code, Section 19, was enacted:

"(a)

(1) If, by reason of death, resignation, removal from office, inability, or failure to qualify, there is neither a President nor Vice President to discharge the powers and duties of the office of President, then the Speaker of the House of Representatives shall, upon his resignation as Speaker and as Representative in Congress, act as President.

(2) The same rule shall apply in the case of the death, resignation, removal from office, or inability of an individual acting as President under this subsection.

(b)

If, at the time when under subsection (a) of this section a Speaker is to begin the discharge of the powers and duties of the office of President, there is no Speaker, or the Speaker fails to qualify as Acting President, then the President pro tempore of the Senate shall, upon his resignation as President pro tempore and as Senator, act as President.

(c)

An individual acting as President under subsection (a) or subsection (b) of this section shall continue to act until the expiration of the then current Presidential term, except that-

(1) if his discharge of the powers and duties of the office is founded in whole or in part on the failure of both the President-elect and the Vice-President-elect to qualify, then he shall act only until a President or Vice President qualifies; and

(2) if his discharge of the powers and duties of the office is founded in whole or in part on the inability of the President or Vice President, then he shall act only until the removal of the disability of one of such individuals.

(d)

(1) If, by reason of death, resignation, removal from office, inability, or failure to qualify, there is no President pro tempore to act as President under subsection (b) of this section, then the officer of the United States who is highest on the following list, and who is not under disability to discharge the powers and duties of the office of President shall act as President: Secretary of State, Secretary of the Treasury, Secretary of Defense, Attorney General, Secretary of the Interior, Secretary of Agriculture, Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of Labor, Secretary of Health and Human Services, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, Secretary of Transportation, Secretary of Energy, Secretary of Education, Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Secretary of Homeland Security.

(2) An individual acting as President under this subsection shall continue so to do until the expiration of the then current Presidential term, but not after a qualified and prior-entitled individual is able to act, except that the removal of the disability of an individual higher on the list contained in paragraph (1) of this subsection or the ability to qualify on the part of an individual higher on such list shall not terminate his service.

(3) The taking of the oath of office by an individual specified in the list in paragraph (1) of this subsection shall be held to constitute his resignation from the office by virtue of the holding of which he qualifies to act as President.

(e)

Subsections (a), (b), and (d) of this section shall apply only to such officers as are eligible to the office of President under the Constitution. Subsection (d) of this section shall apply only to officers appointed, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, prior to the time of the death, resignation, removal from office, inability, or failure to qualify, of the President pro tempore, and only to officers not under impeachment by the House of Representatives at the time the powers and duties of the office of President devolve upon them.

(f)

During the period that any individual acts as President under this section, his compensation shall be at the rate then provided by law in the case of the President."

Therefore, only in the situation where there is neither a President nor a Vice President would the order of accession then proceed to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, who must resign his offices as Speaker and U.S. Representative, and accede to the Presidency by 3 U.S.C. §19(a)(1) or (a)(2). Then, by 3 U.S.C. §19(b), if there is no Speaker, the President pro tempore of the Senate has to resign his offices, and accedes to the Presidency. The remaining order of accession is prescribed in 3 U.S.C. §19(d)(1).

In this scenario, the current President and Vice President serve out their terms until the time prescribed in U.S. Const., Amend. XX, Sec. 3:

"The terms of the President and Vice President shall end at noon on the 20th day of January, and the terms of Senators and Representatives at noon on the 3d day of January, of the years in which such terms would have ended if this article had not been ratified; and the terms of their successors shall then begin."

The Vice-President elect would then be sworn in as Vice President, according to the terms of Amendment XX, Section 3. Then, the Vice President would accede to the Presidency immediately thereafter, by operation of Amendment XXV, Section 1.

It is not precisely unclear whether the deceased President-elect would be sworn in in absentia in order for the Vice President to thereafter immediately accede, but technically this, or a state of affairs equivalent to this, would have to exist for Amendment XXV, Section 1 to operate.

However, the Court would probably interpret the eventuality to have been substantively planned for and explicated, without this. 3 U.S.C. §19 seems to have been drafted in such a way as to obviate this, though, because in this situation, 3 U.S.C §19(a)(1) would seem to recognize (although it does not cognize, because that is left to Amendment XXV, Section 1) that: (1) the individual to be sworn in as President has failed to qualify through being deceased; and, (2) there is a Vice President in existence, to accede to the Presidency according to Amendment XXV, Section 1.
