Daddy went to the house to fix the small bathroom door this morning. The door won't close because the condensation line of the Central A/C System leaked into the door frame and caused either the door or the frame to swell up. It took a small hand-plane to shave the door off slightly in the upper right corner and a small brush to repaint the area a bit. It's a quick and easy 10-15 minutes job. Guess, we might be able to say, we're finally there.
But the A/C condensation line, how little we know about it. Even our A/C guy admitted that the darn thing escaped him completely when he did the "complete" maintenance in June. It might be worth mentioning that the upstairs A/C condensation line was also broken loose in our own house. Water dripped down into the first floor family room like crazy one night. It's a loose PVC coupling in the attic, that's probably been leaking slowly for months, if not years. The fix was easy. But cleaning out the wet stuff in the attic was somewhat painful.
And now, we might even have the answer to Daddy's question, why the small bath ceiling over the tub peeled off soon after his painstaking repair a couple of years ago. And we might also be able to solve the mystery why that small section in the dining room wall was also peeling off for as long as we lived there. The culprit? Maybe, just maybe, the condensation line of the 1st-floor A/C unit. Oh, BTW, did I forget to mention that the kitchen sink in our own house also needs fixing :-)?
