There is typically a silver lining in every situation.
My silver lining came when I still got to practice my profession even when the world was burning, but it so happened that when the pandemic broke, I had just graduated from the university of cooling technology.
I became a certified cooling specialist. My fellow graduates and I were not able to get tasks because most companies had shut down, others closed up. It was a frustrating and dampening period in my life, although I got through it. I decided to change environments plus head south to our home. I was welcomed by hot, heavy, stale air, then the cooling unit at the home had since shut down. The caretaker had an emergency, so he had not reported to the home to have the issue fixed, and since I got to the home in the late day, I had enough time to have the issue fixed. I looked up several cooling corporations and settled on one HVAC company that was running a sale to draw clients while I was in the pandemic. I ordered an electric heat pump to help with indoor comfort at the beach house. The local repair provider was entirely efficient as the cooling plan was delivered within a few minutes. By noon, I had the unit at the house, plus I was trying to convince myself that I remembered all the steps involved in the HVAC upgrade. With the help of one of my friends who is an HVAC supplier, I was able to fit the current unit however it took me quite a while. For the temperature control unit, I fitted a wireless thermostat. The beach home now had a quality AC repair and I had done most of it on my own. I was a qualified cooling serviceman.
