My mom was always the handy one in our family when I was growing up. So when she chose to put in electric heating in our house, I was eager to help. We bought the required components and started the installation procedure but things immediately went south. Despite my mom’s confidence, she quickly realized that she was in over her head. We struggled to correctly install the heating panels and my mother accidentally electrocuted herself while connecting wires. As we progressed with the installation, we realized that we had ordered the incorrect sort of wire, which was too thick to go into the heating panels. There was a small setback but my mother refused to give up and still tried shoving the wires in. Eventually, she gave up and called a professional HVAC technician. He arrived and laughed at the situation when he saw the wiring work. He then spent the next few hours repairing the damage that my mother did. My mom didn’t leave the HVAC technician’s side as she wanted to see where she went wrong and what she could do better going forward. She asked a lot of questions and also had a notepad to write down notes. My mom writes notes about everything, even if they’ll never be used again. After the wiring was completed the HVAC tech checked to see if the electric heating was good to go. Everything started up and ran smoothly. My mom was a little embarrassed about the whole situation but was glad that the HVAC tech did a fine job of correcting the situation.
