Grandparent's cooling machine was so outdated

There was no way I was going to have them go without HVAC, but I also couldn’t afford a new A/C unit myself

Occasionally, I will be in the area to visit my grandparents. I don’t have the best relationship with them, and that is because of a feud between my parents and them. As a child, I almost never saw them because of my parents, so now that I am an adult, I am trying to make up for lost time. Anyways, a little before I came down to visit them, my grandmother called and asked about the cooling machine. She was asking for advice on the air conditioning unit and how to possibly fix it. I tried to explain over the phone, but there were nothing but issues. So when I finally came to see them, I agreed to look at the HVAC device as well. We had a great time, and they told me lots of stories from their time. Just as I was about ready to leave, I decided to take a brief look at their HVAC machine. As soon as I looked at it, I could tell the issue. I hate to even think how old that furnace system was, but I would say anywhere from 25-30 years. I was honestly amazed that they still had such an outdated model. There was no way I was going to have them go without HVAC, but I also couldn’t afford a new A/C unit myself. Instead, I headed down to the local A/C business, and I bought a portable air conditioning system to give them. This seemed to do the trick and I am really glad I was able to help them.
