After our previous incident with the air filter, I always opt to call a heating and A/C professional for any maintenance work.
The other afternoon, the heating and A/C dealer that does routine maintenance on the heating and A/C component at work gave us all cards because they had started offering home services such as repair, installation, and so much more.
That weekend I decided to call them to have our smart heating and A/C inspected. I also added that I wanted an air cleaner to improve our air quality, when I called the corporation, they confirmed their availability for Tuesday afternoon the following week. When the doorbell rang on Tuesday afternoon, I was sure it was from the dealer since I was not expecting anyone. On opening the door, I saw an old classmate from high school. I was pleasantly surprised to see him, and after talking for a while, I asked how he had gotten our address, he told me he was the heating and A/C company that I was expecting. After inspecting everything, including the air conditioner help, he said to me that our DIY had gone wrong, the HVAC duct would need duct cleaning. I also told him of our plans to buy a whole-new home air cleaner, although he told me there was no need since I already had an air purification gadget I could carry to our desired room. He also said that since he had tested the system, the air quality in the home would significantly improve, and we made plans to meet and catch up some more when we both had free time. It was exciting to take a trip down memory lane, appreciate how life had changed, and reminisce on the fantastic times.
