Poop corn

Something tells me this is not a typo!

That goes to show...spending too much time inspecting chicken poops

This is as far as I got installing the mini split.
Air handler hooked up and mounted.

Lines secured in cover in cellar stairwell.

Drain line pulled out and run in stairwell and out of the house to keep it with a constant downward pitch.

Stand screwed down to concrete pad, excess lines coiled and ready to hookup to the condenser when we bolt it to the stand tomorrow.

I'm filthy and need a shower now.

You installed it yourself! I am amazed.

Looks really good. All that's left now is finishing up. I noticed my window unit air is not quite as cold as it was. It's only a couple of years old. Things just aren't made to last anymore. Eight hundred dollar unit ought to last a little longer. It probably doesn't even have ports to add freon either. I know you can add saddle ports but I hear they're bad about leaking. Someone claimed you can wrap the pipe with plumbers tape then add the port and it won't leak. Maybe.

I researched the mini splits and the Mitsubishi was very highly rated. I'm hoping it lasts a long time.

I have old units from my Ma still working to keep rooms cold here after like 45 years.

Good morning Cafè. Coffee is ready.

Good morning and thanks for the coffee!
I am weed-whacking today while the morning air is cool. I need to take down some grass that is about 3 ft high because it blocks my view of oncoming cars. That won't take long and then I will go over to my friend's house and help her, then check the fire dept water hook-ups at the lake and cistern to clean them up. There is a lot of very tall grass this season!
I hope that you are feeling better, Sky.
Enjoy the day, Cafe!
