Rob, I don't want to make a big deal out of this BUT you don't know my friend so let's be nice okay. She wasn't trying to scam anybody - her husband's friend is a retired HVAC mechanic and has installed splitters and AC units for 40 years. They had a qualified and licensed electirican do whatever electrical work needed to be done. They just didn't pull the permit for this part of the job. Everything else was according to code.

Was she trying to save money on her taxes, of course she was but she wasn't trying to scam anyone. Even with her friend doing the work, she paid a lot of money, it wasn't cheap.

If you knew this person Rob, the first thing that would not come to your mind is she is out to scam anyone. She made a bad judgement call on this. I truly feel both of them regret it now.

Oh, the part I left out was her friend was visiting and he isn't a resident here so that's why they did it without the permit. He installed it as a favor and isn't licensed in the state of FL. So, I'm thinking this was one of the deciding factors for them to go this way.
