Barnette's HVAC System Is Still Malfunctioning

Now that there's a leak above the wetbar to deal with, isn't it just dandy that the upstairs air conditioning has started to struggle and is not keeping the second story very cool? Sounds like the problem with the A/C that showed up back in May was not actually resolved, which is not a big surprise, because fixing things correctly does not seem to be a Barnette specialty.

Did I mention that tomorrow I'm expecting my college suitemates, because the Roediger House is the scene of a reunion of the guys this weekend?

Barnette Heating & A/C, Inc., of Mocksville, NC, was the subcontractor responsible for putting in the HVAC system when the renovation work was done in 2008-2009. They have been a very frustrating firm to deal with. And there has been such an extensive number of problems with the system that I marvel that they are still in business, if this is how they normally do things.

And the extra rub is this: Greg Barnette, the "manager" of Barnette Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc., insists that he will not return to address any more issues with the system. Imagine that: an HVAC firm that puts in a system that has thus far been seriously plagued with problems, and he thinks he can just walk away from it.

We'll see about that.
