And like always, there was a trove of answers and videos that I could choose from.

I may have lost my internet privileges for a while. And really, this HVAC fiasco is a great example for me when it comes to the internet. Whenever I have any questions, I always ask the internet. I can sit for hours inside the air conditioning just watching instructional videos. These helpful videos have saved me lots of money when it comes to doing project around the house that I would otherwise pay a service for. Yet, just like everything else in life, there are limits. And I found my limit when it comes the HVAC equipment. I wonder if I had come home to the heat pump not running at all would have made a difference in my reaction. There is part of me that believes had that been the case, I would’ve picked up the phone to call the HVAC company immediately. But that wasn’t the case as the heat pump was running but there was zero cooling coming from the ductwork. I was puzzled as well as frustrated by this turn of events. So of course, I went right to the computer and asked the internet. And like always, there was a trove of answers and videos that I could choose from. After spending about an hour looking at these videos of DIY HVAC repair, I decided to have a go at it. That was just so dumb that I’m still plenty embarrassed that I not only screwed up the heat pump more but I also cost us the remainder of the HVAC warranty. Yea, anyone but a certified, licensed HVAC professional working on HVAC equipment results in a voided HVAC warranty.
