No, you don’t need to cover the a/c in the rain

I have this a single uncle who thinks she knows everything about everything.

I am sure there is a know-it-all in every family but I doubt they are all as insufferable as our uncle is.

However, over the years I have l acquired to completely ignore him. I just pretend she doesn’t exist or that she isn’ttalking to me. It seems to work pretty good, then especially now that I am an adult. My aunt, her fiance, thinks I am incredibly rude but I don’t care. Anyway, I was through a sizable family celebration in our backyard when it started to rain. Every one of us all grabbed the food and dashed inside of the house. My uncle said, “shouldn’t you cover your a/c?” I ignored him although she kept insisting that I needed to go outside and cover our a/c compressor. This is completely not necessary. I don’t even have a cover. If you keep the compressor free of leaves, elevated on the platform it is installed on, and hire Heating plus A/C professionals every now and again you are not going to have complications with a little rain. And yet our uncle kept insisting someone go out and cover the a/c compressor. Finally I had had enough and I told him to stop. I explained that I never, not once, had an issue with the rain hurting our a/c compressor. She kept going on and on though. A month later I found out our uncle had to update her a/c compressor. Why? Because she ran the a/c with a cover on it in the heat. It got fried. Now who’s laughing?
