Viral Post: ‘AC is running but the room is not getting cooled’, when the picture came out, even professional engineers were shocked

In this scorching summer season, everyone is taking various measures to keep their homes cool. Some are getting the grass of the cooler changed and some are spending huge money getting a new air conditioner (AC) installed. But just think, if you spend ₹ 35,000 and buy a brand new split AC from the market and instead of cooling the room, it turns it into a furnace, then what will happen to you? Recently, one such very funny incident is going viral on the social media platform X, after reading which people are not able to control their laughter.

This whole story is about a ‘genius’ friend who, due to his unique wisdom, destroyed a good machine and gave a great opportunity to the entire internet to laugh.

When I got a worried call from my friend: “Dude, the AC is not cooling!”

This funny story started when a female user narrated her friend’s story on social media. The woman told that one of her friends had recently got a new AC installed in his house by spending about ₹ 35,000. Even after a long time of switching on the AC, when the temperature in the room did not change and the heat started increasing instead of decreasing, she got worried and called her friend.

The friend said nervously, “Dude, the AC is working perfectly, air is also coming, but the room is not getting cold at all. I can’t understand what’s wrong.” To understand the situation, the woman asked him, “Do one thing, first take a clear picture of that room and the AC and send it to me, so that I can see whether everything is fine or not.”

As soon as the picture appeared, I started laughing: Kept the outdoor unit inside!

As soon as the friend sent the picture of the room, the woman felt bad laughing. Actually, that great man had installed the indoor unit of the AC (the part installed inside the room) at the right place on the wall, but the kit supplied with it was not installed properly. The outdoor unit (a heavy iron compressor box) was also kept on the floor inside the room.

Usually the outdoor unit is installed on the roof, balcony or outer wall of the house so that it can absorb the hot air inside the room and throw it out. But in this case, the outdoor unit was spewing twice as much hot air back into the room as the machine was releasing cool air into the room. For this reason the room was not getting cooled.

‘Kept inside to protect from dust’ – friend’s amazing argument

When the woman asked her friend the reason for this strange installation, the answer she got was even more surprising. The friend said with complete innocence and confidence:

“If I had placed this expensive outdoor unit outside in the sun, it would have accumulated dust from all over the world and would have quickly become dirty and worn out. That’s why I set it on the floor inside the room to keep it safe and clean.”

In her post, the woman further wrote in a humorous tone that how should she now explain to her great scientist friend that the real function of the outdoor unit is to take out the heat from the room. At this time, even poor AC himself must be thinking that there is nothing wrong with me, the real problem is in the mind of this person who is harassing me. Seeing this kind of amazing confidence, even the biggest professional engineers of the country will be forced to think again about their career and degree.

Netizens had a lot of fun on social media

As soon as this unique post came on the internet, it went viral within no time and the comment section was flooded with funny reactions from people. Users have made many interesting comments on this:

• One user wrote: “Looks like brother has locked the outdoor unit inside the room like a safe to protect it not from dust but from thieves.”

• Another user said: “Congratulations! Your friend has bought not an AC but a very expensive ‘room heater’ with some extra cool features for ₹35,000.”

• Another person laughingly commented: “Brother has not only installed AC, but has directly challenged the laws of thermodynamics. He should get a separate medal for this invention.”

Indeed, this funny incident has proved that sometimes the desire to preserve something too much can lead to huge losses and such a big joke.
