Last week I heard a loud knock on my door at the crack of dawn.
It had been such a boiling night and I was drenched in sweat by the time the banging started.
I hastily changed my sleeping shorts, put on a robe, and went to answer the door. It was my neighbor. He was trying to explain an issue he had with his electric heat pump. It was making loud noises and he had found it smoking. I directed the guy to calm down and go switch it off as I got ready to come to check it. But, by the time I was in the family room, I heard a loud bang that sounded like a tire burst. It was my neighbor’s cooling component that had blown up. I rushed to his home and saw the state of the cooling system. Nothing was salvageable so the best thing to do was to buy another unit from the Heating and A/C business. I was a certified cooling specialist and I did not have to examine the unit to think about the issue. I took a shower, got dressed and went to the Heating and A/C suppliers to get a new system with the latest cooling technology. I also contacted a cooling specialist to help with the Heating and A/C replacements. To further help with indoor comfort, I suggested to my neighbor he gets a weather conditions control unit substituted to a digital thermostat. The local repair provider also helped him plan the annual quality A/C service. The annual tune-ups were important for the optimal function of the unit. My neighbor and buddy were so glad with the cooling corporation and how efficient we had been in fixing his unit. Gladly, the blast did not harm anyone at the house, but he had learned an important lesson to keep up with all the repairs.
