I went out of town for 19 consecutive days this summer on a business trip. While I was gone my air conditioning systems drain clogged, causing water to back up in the drain pan. It overflowed, and water then slowly poured into my master bedroom closet below.
By the time I returned home, the walls had mold growing on them. I had to call in a disaster mitigation company to rip out the walls and carpet and put dryers in that would remove all the moisture from the walls and floor.
That bill was about $2,000. A lot of clothes were ruined, and many others had to be professionally dry cleaned. The clothes that were really damaged were worth a few thousand dollars, and my dry cleaning bill was almost $500.
Im now smack dab in the middle of a series of repairs. Do you know how hard it is to get construction people to work on a small job like a closet?
Fortunately my neighbor is both a builder and a wonderful friend, and he has been sending his subcontractors over to take care of me. The insulation people have come and gone. The drywall guys have put up new walls. Im waiting on the painters now. Ive also got to go pick out and order new carpet.
My insurance company is estimating about $3,000 for all that, while I suspect it will be more.
Speaking of my insurance company, I have to give kudos to them. If you were expecting this to be a complaint article, Im sorry to disappoint you. The adjuster got here quickly, wrote a check that day, and he has been super responsive to all my emails. He has been more than fair with me on the loss payment.
All totaled, this is going to end up costing $10,000 or more before its said and done. And my question was what should I have done to prevent it? So Ill share what I have learned with you.
When the repair service came to fix the leaking air conditioner, they discovered there were issues with the drainage. The condensation was supposed to drain from one pan into another, but the duct between the two pans was not draining as it should.
As it turns out, there is actually a safety shut-off that should have cut my air conditioner off when the second pan filled up with water. But, since water never reached that pan, it just simply overflowed.

VISAKHAPATNAM: Four workers died after a mud wall at a construction site collapsed at VIP Road in the city on Thursday morning. According to the police, the four workers were working on construction of the retaining wall when a huge pile of mud collapsed, trapping all of them.
The police were able to unearth all four bodies of the construction workers from the debris after a four-hour search. The deceased include two persons from the neighbouring state of Odisha and one each from Srikakulam and the city.
As per the preliminary investigations, police said that water was seeping through the mud wall and the construction workers had noticed it, but continued with their work. However, subsequently the mud fell on the construction workers, who were engaged in bar-bending work at the site. There were nine other construction workers at the site during the time of the incident but they had a lucky escape as were working in another part of the same site.

A crime victim advocate's use of decks of cards intended to help solve cold-case homicides is getting a boost from some Cincinnati officials.
City officials have pledged to help Hope Dudley produce the decks of cards that she wants to get into the hands of prison inmates and others who might have information on the cases. Each card features the victim of an unsolved homicide.
Images: Ohio cold case playing cards
Its a personal mission for her. It has been almost seven years since her son, Daniel Dudley, was shot and killed in Hartwell and no one has been charged.
Watch this story
He was on his way out one night, with some friends, and a car pulled up beside, and shot in the car, Dudley said. Daniel Dudley was killed at Vine and Galbraith streets in Hartwell on Sept. 29, 2007.
A vague description of the vehicle that night has turned into a vague idea who might be responsible, but police need tips to make a case. Daniel Dudley is featured on the five of hearts card.
Dudley, who runs the support group UCanSpeakForMe, showed off the cards to members of the City Council's Law Committee on Monday. Members pledged to promote the project and possibly use police forfeiture funds to help put more decks on the street, The Cincinnati Enquirer reported.
Dudley hopes to put 10,000 decks into the hands of anyone who might be able to help. In all, 6,000 decks have already been distributed in Ohio prisons.
Ive heard some of them say, 'I thought they found the person who murdered them,' but this will be a refresher, because that persons case is still unsolved, Dudley said.
