I may have mentioned before when speaking about the security alarm that the two things that the real-estate agent said would be necessary for the house to sell well would be a security system and Air-conditioning. It was getting well into winter and all I had out at the house was a small foot heater which would heat up one room fine but no more. Seeing that I would be moving in relatively soon I decided it would be best if I had the air-con system installed.
The first step was for me to set a couple of concrete slabs in place for the external unit to sit on.
Then the a/c guys could come and install the system, I went for a split system because I didn’t want it sticking out one of the windows and a ducted system would have been far too expensive.
The internal and eternal units had to be installed and the conduits had to link them through a hole in the back wall.
While some of the work was being done the power had to be turned off; so I had some time to kill while the rest of the house was dark. I sat on a pile of doors, read a book and had a cup of tea (luckily I heated up the water before the power was turned off) I was sitting in what would soon be my bedroom and relaxing; with that the house took another baby step towards becoming a home and I snapped a photo to remember the otherwise ordinary moment.
As I’m writing this I’m sitting in a warn house on a cold rainy day: It occurs to me that it takes some warmth to make a house a real home but not always the type you get from a heater ... that said a good reverse cycle air conditioning unit doesn’t hurt and now I have one!!
