elodillesthanks fungi , looks OK18:40
fungicool, i didn't know if anyone else was around this late in the day, especially with the heat wave in europe18:41
fungididn't want it to linger or else it would probably have been postponed until tuesday18:41
elodillesyepp, i've already finished for the day, just looked around here o:)18:43
fungistay cool!18:44
elodillesI'm on it :]18:45
elodillesthe heat wave is just starting, so the coming days will be harder... :S  but with staying inside + some A/C... or hiding in the shadows... swimming, etc... it should be quite bearable o:) ... at least for a couple of days18:51
fungiwe just went through something similar two weeks ago and our central air conditioning broke two different ways, so we ended up buying a portable air conditioning system to run in our master bedroom to keep it down closer to 30c while we were sleeping (it was getting up to 35c in the rest of the house)18:55
elodillesoh my... that doesn't sound good :S18:57
elodillesin that case i don't complain at all18:57
elodillesA/C is currently switched off and still 25-26C inside18:57
elodillesbut as i said, here it's just starting... today was the first day of the heat wave18:58
elodillesthough this is the 2nd heat wave in europe, as there was another ~1 month ago. this is not yet close to that either18:59
elodilleswe'll see in the coming days19:00
fungiwe keep our central aircon under a maintenance contract with all the hardware warrantied, so people came out every day trying to get it fixed, they were just being stumped by obscure failure modes because it's a complicated higher-end system (ironically we thought by spending more we'd be getting a more reliable solution)19:01
fungigood luck!19:02
elodilles:-/ oh, that could have been annoying... :S but we know this, with operating systems as well: if possible, avoid newest hardware if you hope for compatibility o:)19:08
elodillesbut on the other hand, the promises of a shiny new hw is always tempting o:)19:09
fungiwe took the installer's recommendation, and then put it under contract with them, so any finger-pointing at least was limited to being internally amongst themselves or between them and the manufacturer that they're a certified installer for19:11
elodillesdid they manage to fix at the end?19:13
fungiyes, there were two different problems as it turned out, a communication line between the thermostat and hvac had some bad pairs (pinched or frayed somewhere inside the wall) so they had to keep testing different leads until they found two good ones without too much resistance19:14
elodillesoh, cool.19:15
elodillesliterally19:15
elodillesso you are now prepared for the next heatwave at least :)19:15
fungibut also some copper tubing that forms part of the refrigerant return system in the outdoor compressor unit had been rubbing against the bottom of the housing until it got a sizeable hole and could no longer hold pressure19:15
fungiwhich required basically disassembling it all and then cutting out and sweating/soldering a new section of copper line into place19:16
fungithe installers apparently predicted this inevitability and had wedged a couple of extra layers of foam pipe insulation under it, but that wasn't sufficient in the end19:17
elodillesO.o19:17
elodillesat least the maintenance contract served well then it seems :S19:19
fungiit gets us priority response and a discount on labor (and the warranty covers parts from the manufacturer), but we still ended up spending around us$2k to get it back up and running19:20
elodilles:S19:20
funginot including buying a portable aircon for the bedroom as a fallback, and several days of boarding our cats so they didn't have to withstand the heat19:21
fungiwe would have just booked into a local hotel to get away from the heat, but it's the height of tourist season here so there are no vacancies anywhere19:21
elodilles:S19:26
elodillesnow you made me worry what i can expect at the coming days :/19:26
fungiliving in a vacation getaway has a lot of positives, but it's not without challenges19:27
elodillesmy hometown is just a small town, living from tourism of the summer season. i guess it's not even comparable to your city, but some tiny part of your problem i understand o:)19:29
fungioh this place is tiny in the off-season, but the population increases tenfold (literally) in the summer19:30
fungiwe have 10k year-round residents on the island, and usually 100k tourists any given week during peak season19:31
elodillesnice19:32
fungi90% of the houses here are empty in the winter because they're used as second/vacation homes or seasonal rental properties19:32
elodillesmy hometown is like 12k residents, and it's probably just double or at most triple with tourists during the peak 2 months. but i live in a small country o:)19:34
