OT - What are you doing right now?

Long story...neighbour had a small flood in the furnace room (I suspect it happend before, more on that later) and called an HVAC company. The technician hooked up his meter and told him he needed to replace his A/C unit, scaring him with one BS line after another,
1) The reading is too low, there is an internal leak, it's the old R22 system and refilling is illegal
2) The coils are frozen
3) May be the furnace filter's MERV rating is too high
4) May be someone can fix it for a couple of hundred bucks

Neighbour told the guy he needed to think it over and asked for my opinion.
This is what I found, unreal! 
Due to poor basement reno decades ago, the utility room drain ended up in the finished area and they buried the copper pipe (most readily available during the reno I suppose) for drainage. I put in the temporary green tubing while trouble shooting the leak.

The underside of the copper pipe... (must have been leaking for a long time)


No way I was going to break the concrete and tiles, so with some spare parts from my junk collection and thinking inside the pipe, this is how I fixed it for him with minimum effort. There's a risk of the narrow pipe getting clogged but he's aware of it and it's easy to unclog. Anyone see something I may have missed?
I suggested that he invests in the inexpensive yet effective Govee water leak alarm system. It's good insurance and depending on his insurance company he may even get a premium discount. BTW, his A/C is still working! This week's heat wave is a good test.

Enjoying some Father’s Day gifts from the kids.
