There is regularly a silver lining in every situation! My silver lining came when I still got to practice my profession even when the world was burning! It so happened that when the pandemic broke, I had just graduated from the school 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 discouraging and dampening stage in my life, although I got through it. I decided to change environments and head south to our home. I was welcomed by hot, heavy, stale air, the cooling device at the beach home had since shut down. The caretaker had an emergency, so she had not reported to the home to have the issue fixed! Since I got home late, I had enough time to have the issue fixed. I looked up many cooling corporations and settled on one HVAC corporation that was running a sale to draw customers while in the pandemic. I ordered an electric heat pump to help with indoor comfort at the home. The local service provider was actually efficient as the cooling system was delivered within a few hours, by noon, I had the component at the house, plus I was trying to convince myself that I remembered all the steps involved in HVAC installation, and with the help of one of my friends who is an HVAC dealer, I was able to fit the current component however it took me quite a while, for the temperature control unit, I fitted a WIFI control unit. The home now had a quality A/C service and I had done most of it on my own. I was a qualified cooling serviceman.
