I promise to change my air filter more often

Geez, it was hotter than a jalapeño in June when I decided to crank up the air conditioning.

  • But when I hit the switch, I heard this immense thump and then a hiss.

I rushed over to the component and it looked like the pipes were frozen solid. I was totally freaking out, so I called up the heating as well as cooling guys as well as they sent over an heating and A/C business. This dude was a tall, skinny fella with a giant mustache that looked like it was about to freeze over too. He took one look at the cooling system and shook his head like it was gonna be a total disaster. I watched as he started fiddling with it and muttering under his breath. He pulled out the air filter as well as gave me this disgusted look. “When’s the last time you changed this thing?” he asked me. I was like, “I dunno, a few months ago maybe?” He repeated my answer like I was the dumbest guy he had ever met. “A few months ago? This thing is clogged up with dirt and dust! No wonder the pipes froze.” I felt like a total idiot for not changing the dang air filter more often. The business kept tinkering with the heating and A/C component and cursing under his breath. It was blatant he was having a rough day. After a couple of hours, he finally got the cooling system working again. As he was getting ready to leave, I asked him how much I owed him. He just grinned as well as said, “Twenty bucks as well as a promise to change your air filter more often.” I was also pretty relieved to be getting out of town soon where the below temperatures outside will not be an issue. I might even have to stop by Aunt Lucy’s place for some of his famous boiling cocoa.
