You would think that since the window AC unit is so much smaller than a central air conditioning unit, that it would give you smaller problem.
- You would also think that the smaller air conditioning unit would be easier to fix.
I thought that it would not only be easier to fix, but that I should be able to fix the AC unit on my own. When my AC unit quit blowing the cool air I thought it should be blowing, my male ego set in. I looked at that AC unit and thought to myself, how simple it would be to tear it apart. It was extremely easy to tear apart, it was the diagnosing that was hard. I had all of the part laying around the living room, but I didn’t know where to put them back. I didn’t know how to test the parts, to see which one was malfunctioning. My friend was a HVAC technician and I asked him to come over to my house. He took one look at the jumbled pile of parts and he began to laugh. He asked me how much I had had to drink, which I didn’t take very well. I told him the AC unit was calling my name and daring me to fix it. He told me to sleep it off while he tried to make sense of the mess. Later that afternoon, he had the AC unit back together, but we were taking it to the recycling center and going to buy a new AC unit.
