About two months ago I had central air installed in the house, and it was good.
Temperatures soared outside into the high nineties I was inside at a stable 72 degrees, and it was good.
Then this morning, as the grilf was in the basement feeding the cats, she reported that the floor was wet. Well, thinking the rain over the last few days found a new way in, I wasn’t too pleased with the prospect but I let it stew until after work. This was not good.
So I got home and noticed the water was deepest near the furnace. The furnace has a water pump attached to it that takes condensation from the heat exchanger and the condenser and pumps it to the drain. On especially humid and hot days the condenser produces a lot of liquid… Enough liquid to completely cover the floor of one of the rooms in my basement, in fact. So, it turns out that in order for the furnace pump to successfully pump the water… THE GODDAMN INSTALLERS HAVE TO ACTUALLY PUT THE DRAIN TUBE INTO THE PUMP. THEY WERE NOT GOOD.
Anyway, I see this tube not quite attached to the pump and I think “Gee, I’ll just put it in the hole”. heheheh. hole. So I take the bottom of the tube and put it in the hole, and the top of the tube falls of the furnace. So I take the top of tube and I attach it to the furnace, and the bottom of the tube comes out of the pump. So I take the bottom of the tube and put it in the hole, and the top of the tube falls of the furnace.

Huh.
I guess the tube is too short. Son of a bitch. Its ghetto rigged right now, but you can bet I’m calling the fuckers back to fix it. I love my air conditioning, but I also like dry floors.
