I was glad to help as we read the instruction manual together.
We all wanted dad to get a hobby but weren’t sure what would interest him. After retiring from work, he took some time to adjust. Dad was so used to a busy life that staying idle at home was making him cranky. One day, his friend came by and invited him to a model airplane event. Dad fell in love with the hobby and converted one building at the back of the house into his play area. It was a great space to house his unique war-era model planes, but it needed air conditioning. It was either too hot in the summer or cold in winter to tinker with his planes. So dad set about finding the proper heating and cooling unit for the room. He spoke to an AC supplier in town about the issue he had and asked for assistance. The HVAC vendor had the perfect solution. He asked dad to consider purchasing a ductless mini-split AC. It was a complete air conditioning system that he only needed to install and use. There was no need to add more ductwork to the small building. Dad was happy to learn about the ductless cooling HVAC and bought one. He came home with it and started installing it in the building. I was glad to help as we read the instruction manual together. I learned it was a quiet but powerful air conditioner that was the right size for the room. It had 4 in 1 functions in that it coil heat, cool, dehumidify and fan the space depending on the season. The mini-split HVAC came with a DIY installation kit that we had to follow to mount it on the wall. Dad was happy he could enjoy his new hobby during all seasons without worrying about heat.
