Uncle Jason was worried the mini-split wouldn’t turn on

Dad is a trained HVAC serviceman, so he went over to the lake house to inspect the situation.

Uncle Jason had surprised us all when he agreed to relocate from the farm, and our parents were quite worried about his well-being after he fell ill, then he was residing in a big farmhouse alone and fell down the stairs. Were it not for the neighbors, he’d have died without anyone to help him, then the fall had been a wake-up call. For a long time, my mom kept insisting he needed to have people around him. But our uncle Jason was quite stubborn. However, he came from the hospital, moved into our house briefly, sold the farm, and bought the lake house next door. The lake house had been empty for quite some time and was the best size for him, but instead of getting an AC system plus upgrades to the HVAC duct, our uncle opted to get a mini-split AC which was cheaper. He saw no need for a full air conditioner substitutement, yet he lived alone. The ductless AC system was sound, and for quite some time, our uncle appreciated his salvagey and new home. He prefers tending to his backyard garden, and all of us did our best to make sure he was comfortable… Last week, Uncle Jason walked into the lake house looking for my dad. He informed him that the mini-split AC system wouldn’t turn on. He’d tried switching on the HVAC unit with the remote control, however nothing was happening. Dad is a trained HVAC serviceman, so he went over to the lake house to inspect the situation. Dad noticed that the unit was good. However, the batteries in the remote control were quite old. They substituted the batteries, and the mini-split AC came back to life, much to our uncle’s delight.
