She asked if he should get the vacuum cleaner and clean the insides before he upgraded the air filter
My husbandy and I were going to go on vacation and our kid was current home sitting… She was eighteen years old and getting ready to go to school, and all of us thought he was old enough to take care of things for the week. It was time to change the air filter in the gas furnace, and I thought it was a fantastic time to teach his how to do it. It wouldn’t be too long before he would be out on his own, and increasing an air filter was a easy chore if you knew how to do it. I took his to the basement and showed his where the air filter was supposed to go, and then had his open the chamber, and you would have thought he found a dead critter inside, he was so squeamish. She told me it was dirty and he didn’t want to touch it. I rolled our eyes and told his that getting your hands dirty wasn’t a crime, nor would it kill her. She detachd the air filter and with 2 fingers, he localed it in the trash. She didn’t mind picking up the clean air filter, however he didn’t want to put it in the gas furnace. She asked if he should get the vacuum cleaner and clean the insides before he upgraded the air filter. I looked inside, and it wasn’t that dirty, however if he wanted to do a little extra work to the gas furnace, I was going to let her, however by the time he was done with increasing the air filter, he was excited and wanted to do more. I was wondering if I had made a mistake showing his how to change the air filter. She was now talking about giving up on school and going to Heating and Air Conditioning university.
