Mom had so many things planned for the entire family while in the holidays.
She wanted all of us home before Christmas plus wasn’t taking any excuses. We had made the mistake of informing his we could work remotely, so he set a date. She looped in the kids to make matters worse, so they kept nagging us about it. Mom constantly knew he could get to his kids using the grandkids. My siblings plus brothers lived in the same state as her, but I was on the other side of the country. I had to make sure things were taken care of on my end before getting on a flight with my family. Mom was waiting for us at the airport when we landed in his immense minivan. As we were heading home, mom happened to mention there was something wrong with his furnace. The condo wasn’t as boiling as he wanted it to be, plus changing the temperature settings wasn’t making any difference. My partner is an HVAC expert by profession, plus he gave to check the component once we got home. Mom had been right to worry since the condo was so freezing when we got there. My partner went to inspect the heating unit. It turns out the compressor for the heat pump was faulty. That’s why the component wasn’t blowing ample boiling air into the house. There was a lower refrigerant charge, plus since he didn’t have his gear at hand, we had to contact an area AC company to come to sort it out.
