I pulled an idiot move. Cleaned the condenser on my AC units outside (house). I spray it with some caustic crap and let it foam up for ten minutes. Degreases it and cleans them real good. Only problem is I used a pressure washer to rinse it out and it flattened all the fins on it. Now my AC can't keep up. I should have known. I'm an idiot!! So I need to comb it out. They make special condenser combs for that sort of thing but they are kinda crap and don't work very well. I see people on you tube using a regular rat tail comb with those fine teeth on them. Cut them in 1.25 inch wide strips and grab the spine with a pair of vise grips then comb the fins. So I have to run out to the store and find some rat tail combs. I could kill myself.
And headless chickens take off running after little kids.![]()
I've been a little sad today as well. It's been a year now and hardly a day goes by that I don't think about her.....

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ohhhhhhh the mental image I just had![]()
coz we're English, that's why.and why is row pronounced "roe" ( as in fish eggs) and not like bow ( as in the bow of a boat)??
When I lived in Okinawa, I noted they had the biggest most beautiful butterflies, and the most horrendous huge bugs. The roaches there could fly and being of a loose Japanese persuasion, they enjoyed kamikaze bombing. I had a memorable episode with one of the buggers too. I was terrified, and grabbed the roach killer spray. We had several rounds in the living room. It was getting the upper hand, till I hit it square in the nose with the spray. At that point it was a sprint to the bathroom between me and it, a sprint that Usaine Bolt would have been proud of, and I got in there, slammed the door just in the nick of time. BANG! BANG! (That was the roach slamming against the door on the other side). I sat there like a quivering jello for the next 30 minutes till I dared stick the can nozzle out of a hairline crack in the door, followed thereafter by myself.there was this girl I was dating many years ago who was deathly afraid of roaches... one night I went to visit her at the Armory, she was doing "alarm failure duty" and was carrying a side arm ( 45 cal 1911)... as we walked down the hallway to the actual Armory, dozens of roaches were scurrying across the floor... she freaks out and pulls out the 45.... I calmed her down and asked how she is going to explain the missing/fired rounds at shift change....
she eventually put the gun back into the holster and I "danced" my way down the hallway for her![]()
Exactly right! And I know it. All I had on my mind was maximum clean and that's why I broke out the pressure washer. Was so fixated on that goal that I did not slow down enuf to think it through. Had I, it would have been obvious a pressure washer was the exact wrong tool to use. Now I pay the price.Hey, you’re human. You’ll fix it up. Try not to be too angry at the time you need to spend. These things happen. Usually I take it as a sign that I need to slow down.
Don’t forget the holy water and say a blessing over those AC units.![]()
I misspoke. I did not use a caustic cleaner. I used an alkaline cleaner (or whatever it said on the bottle but I know it wasn't caustic). I've seen caustic cleaners used when I was a kid and just used that as a general cleaning term. Yes, there is a big difference!OUChhhhhh!!! ummm dont use caustic type cleaners on coil/fin units ( unless it copper) sodium hydroxide ( caustic) will destroy aluminum in a hurry... I used to make hydrogen gas with Red Devil lye and aluminum foil and then make hydrogen "bombs" with it BHUHAHAHAHahahaaaaaa!!!!!
the A/C supply place will have the good ones... a bit pricey but they are professional grade.
pressure washer???? even when you look too hard at the fins they bend....![]()
