PSA: People with split systems in their house/apartment, get it cleaned! I didn’t for 5 years or so and it was running badly and randomly had black dusty bits blow out. Yeah, those bits were mould! I paid a place $129 and they cleaned the whole thing out and now it’s working perfectly. This is what came out of it after a chemical spray and then a pressure water wash. That bottle is 2 foot high and they even emptied it and did another quarter of a bottle drainage:

I’m surprised I’m not dead or really sick from all that shit in there.

Ew. That could pass as Coca-Cola, bong water or even Guinness

Yep, it’s disgusting. I’m happy to pay that amount every year since my working from home desk it directly below it. Also, totally claiming it on tax as a work expense.
