I was very angry about this and when I finally did get an HVAC professional on the scene, even he was aggravated that somebody basically butchered the air conditioner
I had to learn the hard way that it’s not a wise move to entrust a couple of non-professionals to work on your HVAC system. I honestly was going to just call up the HVAC company to handle the repairs that were needed to get everything back in working order, but then some buddies of mine stepped in. They said that they knew a couple of guys who were really good at working on all kinds of things including HVAC equipment. I was a little bit skeptical and I even asked if they were HVAC certified. They shrugged and said they weren’t sure if they were HVAC certified, but one of them said one of the guys fixed the A/C on his car a few months back. I figured if they could fix the A/C in a motorcar, then perhaps they really could help fix my central air conditioner. So I told them to contact the guys and have them come over. When they arrived at my household, they said that this should be a piece of cake. They had all their tools and they started ripping my air conditioner apart. I was starting to get nervous when the job was taking a lot longer than I expected. After a few hours, one of the guys came to give me a report of what was going on. He said that unfortunately, they weren’t able to figure out the source of the problem. He said they tried a few things, but nothing was working. They ended up putting the A/C back together as best as they could and said I would have to call the HVAC professionals. I was very angry about this and when I finally did get an HVAC professional on the scene, even he was aggravated that somebody basically butchered the air conditioner. He could tell that some non-professionals were working on it and he had a hard time getting everything together the way it’s supposed to be. The job cost me double what it would have cost if I would have just called the HVAC professional in the first place.
