Ok…..I had been having problems with my heat pump as of late. The damn thing has been leaking water all over the freaking place! The powder room, the hallway and the laundry room. I need a damn canoe!
So I decide it’s time to call a professional out to see what the problem was before I start seeing fish swim by in my living room. I call one place:
Me: “Hi yes, I am having problems with my heat pump leaking water everywhere. How much is your service call?”
Dumb Ass: “ It’s going to be $79 for the visit and an additional $50 every 15 mins the technician is there.”
Me: “Get the hell outta here. Are you serious?”
Dumb Ass: “Yes Ma….”
Me. CLICK
I then proceed to call another heating and air condition place:
Me: “Hi yes, I am having problems with my heat pump leaking water everywhere. How much is your service call?”
Clueless: “It’s going to be $125 for the visit then $79 for every half hour the guy is there.”
Me: “Is he going to cook me lunch, clean my house and wash my car afterwards?”
Clueless: “Excuse me Ma'am.”
Me: CLICK
I finally found a repair place that actually was pretty reasonable. The guy comes over and begins his work. He looks at me then at the heat pump then back at me and asks: “Where is the filter?”
Me: “The what?” Looking dumbfounded
Repair Guy: “The filter that goes into the unit. It’s missing.”
Me: “Uuhhhh…a filter goes in that thing?” Shrugging my shoulders.
Repair Guy: Heavy Sigh “Oh boy.” I swear I saw him rolling his eyes.
