My sister called me yesterday to report that there is a weird smell coming from her air conditioning vents.
As the older brother of a sister who is not married yet, I always get called on to look at stuff like this for her.
I don’t mind helping my sister out from time to time, but once in a while I wish that she would call a professional instead of me. Anyway, yesterday after she called me, I got my tools together and I drove over there. It takes me a long time to get over to her house because it’s all the way across town. The distance really isn’t that far, but the traffic is usually pretty awful. I got there and took all the tools inside and that’s when I first noticed the terrible smell that my sister had told me about. The air conditioning had just turned on right when I walked in the door and the smell hit me right in the face. I didn’t really believe that it was all that bad up until that point. When I smelled it, I could totally understand the reason why she called me to try and help her fix it. The smell was really terrible! I didn’t really know what to do because at that point, I was afraid that an animal had somehow gotten into the ductwork and died or something. That would explain the smell, that’s for sure. That’s what it smelled like to me, anyway. I told her to call the HVAC company instead because I’m not going to mess around with that!
