I went outside at first light to spray some chemicals on the garden since the bugs are taking over. I pull out the 3 point sprayer that I made, connect it all up, fill it up with some seven and plug it in. The pump primes for a bit and then chemical just starts spraying all over the place. Last winter it seems that I emptied everything out except the handle. Apparently it still had some water in the grip on the handle and in the freezing temps, it froze and cracked. Great... So I come inside to my 4 gallon backpack sprayer and naturally, that one will not fit the 15 gallon. So what do I do? I cut the hose off of the handle on the 15 gallon, took the handle off of the metal extension rod on the sprayer and put the hose onto the extension directly. I don't have on/off functions, but I can plug it in and unplug it. But I got the garden sprayed. And naturally, it looks like it is going to rain, so that is going to be a waste of chemicals. So I posted about my AC unit outside being clogged up and checking the pressures. Well, I went ahead and took the top off of it and used the hose to blow it out and yea, it was a little dirty. Not as bad as I thought it would be though. I did check the temp before and after and I went from about 62ºF to about 54ºF on the inside air temp coming out of the vents. The evaporator coil temp is at 34ºF so that is about as cold as it can get without freezing up. So why did I do all of this? Because yesterday my AC couldn't keep up with the temps outside. The outside air temp and sun was heating up the inside of my house faster than my AC could cool it down. So, clean the outside condenser, check and added just a touch of R410 (shh, don't tell anyone <img src="/images/smilies/chuckles.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":chuckles:" title="Chuckles    :chuckles:" data-shortname=":chuckles:" />) and clean the filters inside and boom, we have colder air coming out of the vents inside. We will see today if all of this work payed off. Man I hope so...</blockquote>
