My Grandfather reportedly was the type of old dude who didn’t like anything he couldn’t do himself, no matter what. I heard that the first time he got a TV, he installed the satellite dish on the roof entirely by himself because he did not allow workmen onto his property without a legit reason, and for him a “good reason” was the grunt task he and his kids couldn’t handle. The man did his own plumbing, dug his own well, as well as wired the condo with modern electricity himself. They don’t make people like him anymore, if you ask me, which may or may not be a nice thing. I know, when it came to heating, the old man was an ace in the hole as well as could fix any problem with the oil furnace. When it came down to a/c, he was certainly much out of his element. That’s when the problems began. However would never disclose that, which gave us some complications with indoor air temperature control. See, once he saw the expense as well as the task involved with a central air conditioning, as well as understood the fact that it took a state certification to do the work at his house, he decided not to go that route. He instead bought a small box-style window mounted A/C unit which he put right smack in the kitchen. This was fantastic for cooling the kitchen, however, you can imagine that it did nothing for the living room or any of our rooms. Really, it only helped a little; Eventually he bought another ac unit for his room, however after that I had to sleep on his floor if I wanted to have A/C at night.
