Finally have A/C

When we had the addition built for my mom last year, the contractor installed a Mitsubishi dual air conditioning/heating system that goes up on the wall.

I should have known when I saw the contractor with the box open trying to read instructions that we were in trouble.  Mom passed away before we needed to use it. Fast forward to last winter. It was feeling cool in the room while I was working and I tried to turn the heat on.  Nothing happened but a light blinked on it.  So I moved the space heater from my old office to my new one and used that when needed.  Fast forward to the hot summer we've had.  One day I tried to turn the air conditioning on. All it did was blow air, and it was never getting cold. Despite having  the windows open and fan on, it just wasn't good enough.

I finally decided today to call someone that dealt with this system as our regular whole house central air repair person did not deal with these, which I thought was nuts!

Anyway sure enough had a nice repair man out today who said that the system was never completely finished being set up and there was also no Freon in it. Figures.  Of course this was one more thing that my hub was able to complain about our horrible contractor. I finally got him to stop complaining about him by the end of last year.  Of course I do wish the contractor would have told me to contact a specialist to get the unit working properly, instead of telling us it was all set.  But anyway after a year and 3 months the unit is finally set up and working.
