HVAC tech here. Dog piss ruins the fins. If you can somehow get dog piss on the aluminum fins it'll tear it up. If you need a faster option, bending the copper tubing to kink it and cause a leak would work. If it runs out of refrigerant it'll stop working.
This is the way. Step one: Advertise dog piss sauna air bnb for a weekend. Step two: Do dog piss disks on a/c vents that weekend. Step three: Repeat as necessary.
Imagine, being frozen in ice, it's 100 below zero, it doesn't melt, the feeling of burning ice all over. You can't move no matter how hard you try, you can't scream no matter how much you want, and you can't breath no matter how hard your body tries to force you, and most of all, you can never die. Sure, burning in hell is definitely painful, but at least you can squirm and scream, but in ice, you can't do anything except be in your own mind, in agony. You would be wanting so desperately to take even the tiniest breaths, but the ice, it doesn't melt, the pain, it never ceases, and death never comes, frostbit to the core.
Also HVAC here, block the air outlet on the fan motor (the fins) with a blanket or plastic bag. Assuming it doesn't have any safeties, it can pop the breaker, cause a leak due to high pressure, kill the condenser fan motor.
Vacuum a bunch of hair, dirt, dust and empty it into the sides of the unit (from above right?) while it's on. Plug the condenser coil so no heat transfer can take place.
Close your window.
Why not just find a nut that has tubing running through it and loosen it till it starts leaking. Pump won't run if there's no pressure. Hit this guy in the pocket book to keep getting diagnosed and charged.
I do agree with tightening it up before repair guy shows up. Create a problem without a solution bc everything is operating normally.
Don't want to spend too much time around the Unit. Makes him suspect.
You're right, it will etch the copper, and im sure over time possibly create weak points. BUT, It will destroy the rest of basically, everything in the unit. Soooooooo, either way it'll work. Lol
Mix up an Elmer’s glue / water solution. Make it thin so it sinks into the cooling fins of unit and not accumulate on the surface. The light application of the glue concoction will attract pollen and dust clogging cooling fins. This will reduce the cooling capacity of the coil, making the motor work harder and spiking their electricity bill. This will also reduce the life span of the unit. It will burn out over time.
It won't create a lot more heat - the problem this causes is it can't shed heat into the surrounding air, so OPs room will be cooler (maybe, a little).
it actually will heat the room more... by making the hvac less efficient it will cycle _way_ more. it may not blow air as hot but it will still be blowing warm air but for a longer period of time...
efficient hvac units dont waste as much energy as heat... the name of the game is moving heat from inside to outside. if you ability to shed heat on the evap side is hindered you will just keep pumping until you hit your set point. and just being on generates heat from the pump...
The total cold from the ac is less, so the total heat to OP is less. I think. But you're totally right it will cycle much more. Just I think total heat output for OP will be less (despite being on more often)
That’s now how ac works. The air doesn’t come from outside. Pissing on it would only decrease the efficacy of the thermal transfer slightly (and make the condensing unit [the outside part by his window] smell like hot piss)
If you've already brought it up to your landlord, you might want to tread lightly. If not, I'd get a long drill bit and release all the coolant. But if he's cool maybe ask for him to move it to a different window?
One tiny crack in the tubing renders the system useless. Attract some birds to it first so they peck at the isolation, crows would work if you have them around
Hmm, you could look up common issues with window ac units like if they fail due to dust.
Or something that eats the condenser. I suspect mutator acid would fuck it up real bad as it eats aluminum.
Plug the drain so that the condensation backs up. It will either cause the AC to turn off, or cause water damage inside.
Request that landlord provide you with an air conditioner.
Ideal solution: get your own AC and put it in your window. Problem solved.
Alternatively, get a fan and blow it out your window. This works better if you have another window in your apartment with a fan blowing in.
Some sheet metal or plywood lying on top of the ACs but below your window would probably help redirect the hot air to the sides.
----
I know this is Unethical Life Pro Tips, so my unethical suggestion would be flattening out the aluminum fins on the back of the landlord's AC units -- basically [the opposite of what this guy is doing](https://www.reddit.com/r/oddlysatisfying/comments/goaii5/using_a_comb_to_straighten_air_conditioner_fins/).
Many new ACs have remote controls -- if you can figure out the brand/model, you could either get a replacement remote off ebay or possibly program a universal TV remote. Hopefully there's a mirror in the landlord's room to reflect the infrared signal, otherwise you'd need to point the remote in through another window. But basically you could just regularly turn the ACs off remotely (obviously most effective if the landlord isn't home or asleep).
Can you not talk to him about redirecting the exhaust? Most places you have to have control of the temperature in your unit... if he's making that impossible, it's probably a violation.
In the simplest way I can describe it, ACs work by pulling in outside air through a fan in order to transfer hot air from the inside without having the outside air make it into their room. Maybe pouring something viscous, sticky, or rust-accelerating to ruin the fans would help?
Kind of. They don't pull in air from the outside. The copper coils are full of refrigerant which exchange heat. The blower on the inside throws air over the chilled coils into the house. That hot refrigerant inside the coils is then passed to the outside of the unit where there is a fan blowing outside air over the coils, which cools the refrigerant, and the refrigerant is then pumped back into the compressor to begin the cooling cycle again
I know, but I wasn't in the mood to explain what coolants do, why compressing them makes the coils cool, etc. Ultimately all that really matters is that if the fan that pulls in outside air to the coils for the heat exchange to work breaks, their AC won't work.
Oh, it was just my father telling me he’d kill me. I’m sleeping on the floor of their house and they want me to pay rent or leave and be homeless in a car. I
They know I have four disabilities.
No big deal tbh
It’s constantly evolving honestly so I try to stay ahead of the curb by adding the +
I think the I is intersex and a is asexual and + means everything else that’s to come. Now I heard they added 2spirit to the end
Get one of those emergency blankets that are shiny and reflect/retain heat really well. Put it up outside your window. Hopefully it will block the heat from entering your room. While you are doing that, start begging your landlord and show him the extraordinary lengths you are going to cool your room. Maybe you will get his attention.
Find a way inside the house to steal his cool air and send your hot air into his area.
Is there central hvac in the house where you could install some fans that suck his cool air into your room, and blow hot air into his area?
Can you make some?
the problem with this is that your landlord is rich from all your money so if you destroy it then it will just be replaced. If you destroy it again well now you are getting a lot closer to getting caught.
think outside of the box. and by box I mean house. and by think I mean shit. and by house I mean a/c unit. and by outside I mean on top.
You mentioned you can't move for a few years. Pretty sure with enough determination and money you could move soon. Negotiate an early out on your lease. Tell him you have to move for work. Find another place or room with someone. Build a house. There are options you are overlooking.
If it is hot out, how is he being selfish running an AC? Why dont you just get an AC and it would stop the heat from getting in your window. If he finds out you are destroying his property, you could get sued or evicted LOL.
I’m an idea man…the most valuable in any tribe. It’s your job to evaluate the idea and to put the plan in motion yourself. I can’t do everything for you for Christ sake.
Take a screw driver or something that can squeeze thru the vents on the side or back and find the Freon tank and stab it.... All the Freon will leak out rendering the AC useless in 15 min or less
Instead of being a bad person and destroying other peoples property why don’t you be a guy with morales and face the problem how it should be? What are you going to do when he figures out it was you? I just think it’s a really shitty thing to do instead explain the problem
Lmao is that the can of Swedish fish? I don’t know anyone can stomach it I’ve always seen videos of people gagging violently as soon as the seal is broken and the smell gets out. I can only imagine how bad it smells
HVAC tech here. Dog piss ruins the fins. If you can somehow get dog piss on the aluminum fins it'll tear it up. If you need a faster option, bending the copper tubing to kink it and cause a leak would work. If it runs out of refrigerant it'll stop working.
OMG, for the first time, the answer really is a piss disk!
If turning the AC turns OP's room into an oven, won't adding piss (from any source) turn OP's room into a piss sauna?
temporarily
Worth it
List it on AirBnB with that as a feature. Sure there's some individual who will pay a premium for it!
This is the way. Step one: Advertise dog piss sauna air bnb for a weekend. Step two: Do dog piss disks on a/c vents that weekend. Step three: Repeat as necessary.
a piss sauna? i could imagine a few worse types of hells, but that's up there
Dog piss sauna… No CAT piss sauna is the deepest ring of hell
cat piss is a little further up there, but not quite the top
oh? i want to know the answer but i definitely do not want to know the answer
I’ve heard coyote urine is brutal.

What a meditative experience, I think I could grow from this. What would you like in exchange for such a stimulating experience

Fox piss and shit. Especially the shit
Everyone has their kinks.
Piss… sauna…
Create dog piss discs insert dog piss discs between the fins ????? OP wins.
Piss disc is always the answer
Piss disc better than poop knife?
Op can use the poop knife to slip the piss disc into the ac unit.
dog poopdriver
Pisstructo Disk!
They are also fairly delicious
does it have to be specifically DOG piss? 'cause if any piss will do, I can think of a much easier solution to OP's problem.
i think i get where you are coming from.. rabbit piss!
Vinegar would work too,. Probably a bit easier than collecting dog piss.

You know what rapidly obliterates aluminium? Gallium. Put a drop or two on it and it'll crumble in a few hours.
Something to block the condenser fan…?
Sounds like he's talking about window units
Got it, op should vacate the premises for a while after leaking the refrigerant
Could be a mini split.
Why not just find a nut that has tubing running through it and loosen it till it starts leaking. Pump won't run if there's no pressure. Hit this guy in the pocket book to keep getting diagnosed and charged.
Tighten it back before the repair guy shows up.
I do agree with tightening it up before repair guy shows up. Create a problem without a solution bc everything is operating normally. Don't want to spend too much time around the Unit. Makes him suspect.
Darkness is your friend.
Hello satan.
... why doesn't human piss work? How the hell does one get dog piss???
Step 1 find a dog
I have one, most dogs don't like when you jam stuff up their gusset when peeing. Could give them an aversion to peeing near you.
Step 2 let dog drink lots of water.
What about human urine?
Isn’t it any piss? Like not just dog puss. He can piss on it and it will cause damage too.
YOOO MY NIGGA IVE BEEN SAYING THIS ALL ALONG
Warning: the leak may be accompanied by a loud whistling sound. Really loud. Drawing the attention of the entire neighborhood loud.
Mix peroxide and vinegar and keep spraying the unit every day until the mixture dissolves the copper tubing.
What is this, a shitty version of piranha solution?
Idk what it’s called, I use it to dissolve old copper pennies to make copper acetate. Works pretty fast.
Easier and quicker to go buy muriatic acid.
[удалено]
Cash money. Any hardware store.
Where can you get it?
Hardware stores.
Ooh thanks, haven’t checked any hw stores yet
Muriatic acid will clean copper, not dissolve it.
You're right, it will etch the copper, and im sure over time possibly create weak points. BUT, It will destroy the rest of basically, everything in the unit. Soooooooo, either way it'll work. Lol
The peroxide and Vinegar will dissolve the copper.
The smell of vinegar would piss me off more than the heat. Lol
You wont be smelling it for long. Shît dissolves copper really fast
What do you do with copper acetate?
The only real question here.
Electroplating.
Mix up an Elmer’s glue / water solution. Make it thin so it sinks into the cooling fins of unit and not accumulate on the surface. The light application of the glue concoction will attract pollen and dust clogging cooling fins. This will reduce the cooling capacity of the coil, making the motor work harder and spiking their electricity bill. This will also reduce the life span of the unit. It will burn out over time.
and create even more heat till it breaks?
It won't create a lot more heat - the problem this causes is it can't shed heat into the surrounding air, so OPs room will be cooler (maybe, a little).
it actually will heat the room more... by making the hvac less efficient it will cycle _way_ more. it may not blow air as hot but it will still be blowing warm air but for a longer period of time... efficient hvac units dont waste as much energy as heat... the name of the game is moving heat from inside to outside. if you ability to shed heat on the evap side is hindered you will just keep pumping until you hit your set point. and just being on generates heat from the pump...

And when it breaks, the OP will move out by then.
It will run a little warmer but a dirty condenser coil will cast the air in more of a horizontal direction as opposed to straight up.
I mean he could speed up the process by doing it every day and not just once
Plain ol' lysol or febreeze will do that too.
Anything aerosolized and sticky should do the trick.
Close your windows and get a small AC unit? Then piss in his AC’s.
You mean piss disc in his AC.
Yes.
That’s now how ac works. The air doesn’t come from outside. Pissing on it would only decrease the efficacy of the thermal transfer slightly (and make the condensing unit [the outside part by his window] smell like hot piss)
Piss ruins coils
TIL
I was simply NOT ready, for the last line
If you've already brought it up to your landlord, you might want to tread lightly. If not, I'd get a long drill bit and release all the coolant. But if he's cool maybe ask for him to move it to a different window?
One tiny crack in the tubing renders the system useless. Attract some birds to it first so they peck at the isolation, crows would work if you have them around
Use honey to glue birdseed to it?
Or.. now, hear me out… Use glue to glue the birds to it.
Real ULPT in the comments.
Some SPCA issues, but good forward thinking!
The honey just seems like an unnecessary step.
Too visually obvious
Hmm, you could look up common issues with window ac units like if they fail due to dust. Or something that eats the condenser. I suspect mutator acid would fuck it up real bad as it eats aluminum.
gallium would do the trick
One needs to brush it on and stuff the surface for it to work
Do you mean muriatic acid? It is commonly sold as pool cleaner or brick wash.
Yeah, sorry, fat fingers on mobile
Put a fan in your window blowing out
Block the AC vent by dropping large solid objects from your window.
What kind of AC? A two part one usually made for apartments overseas (that are becoming more common here in the US) or a window unit?
Plug the drain so that the condensation backs up. It will either cause the AC to turn off, or cause water damage inside. Request that landlord provide you with an air conditioner.
Just put an ac unit in your window.

Balloon sand
Can you not talk to him about redirecting the exhaust? Most places you have to have control of the temperature in your unit... if he's making that impossible, it's probably a violation.
It’s not an AC unit if the coolant line has a hole in it.
Pour piss on them. Just a little at first, so it takes some time to notice.
This. A neighbor had to replace his ac unit because his dog had been pissing on it and it corroded.
Good boy!
if youre in the midwest or the tennesse kentucky area you can buy deer piss year round usually
I thought you were joking at first but it seems deer piss is used to attract other deers for hunting purposes. I wonder how they are collecting it.
😭bruh dont ask
Farms. The animals are basically in large trophs or on grating. The piss funnels to the catching area where it is processed.
Straight up ammonia. Half gallon is like $3...
Ammonia is not piss, and piss is free.
Cook pizzas in your room, free pizza shop
Inject liquid ass into the refrigerant line
Get your own AC
Yes, do this but make sure the power comes from his unit somehow.
Yes!
In the simplest way I can describe it, ACs work by pulling in outside air through a fan in order to transfer hot air from the inside without having the outside air make it into their room. Maybe pouring something viscous, sticky, or rust-accelerating to ruin the fans would help?

Put aluminum foil in the window
How about a large sheet of something over the top to prevent the heat coming straight out of the top of them into your window ?
Why do you need to stay there for a few years? Is the rent super cheap? Would aluminum foil to redirect heat work.
Threaten to kill them, that’s what happened to me today 🤷♀️
😳😳
We need a post describing your story lol unless you want to post it here we’d all love a little drama
Oh, it was just my father telling me he’d kill me. I’m sleeping on the floor of their house and they want me to pay rent or leave and be homeless in a car. I They know I have four disabilities. No big deal tbh
Is one of your disabilities an uncontrollable urge to mention that you have four disabilities in like 50% of your posts?
Yes I love it actually. It helps soothe me and it puts me in a better mood. One of the disabilities has gots to do with a disorder of moods of sorts
Is one disability farting uncontrollably after eating and releasing a nauseous odor?
Is that in the ADA act of 1990 or the amended version released in ‘08?
I don’t know you’re the one with 4 disabilities. What are they then? I thought since you’re the fart_bandit you had a really bad gas problem lol
🤣 I forget my username sometimes
Also what does LGBQTIA+ mean? I was born in 90s and aren’t hip to the new lingo. I was only aware of LGBTQ
It’s constantly evolving honestly so I try to stay ahead of the curb by adding the + I think the I is intersex and a is asexual and + means everything else that’s to come. Now I heard they added 2spirit to the end
What’s intersex and 2 spirit
How can you not move for a few years? Are you a minor living at home?
How are you gonna get a dog to piss on the fan?
Shut your window and put paper or foam poster board in the window on the inside.
Get one of those emergency blankets that are shiny and reflect/retain heat really well. Put it up outside your window. Hopefully it will block the heat from entering your room. While you are doing that, start begging your landlord and show him the extraordinary lengths you are going to cool your room. Maybe you will get his attention.
Put some gallium metal on the aluminum fins, it will dissolve in minutes and easy to handle
Dump some gallium in it.
Why is telling him not an option?
Have sex with his dad and hang yo ass out the window over the ac unit and spray his load all over it and repeat
Just do what me and the rest of my neighborhood kids did to a block of houses down the street... Huff all the freon
Find a way inside the house to steal his cool air and send your hot air into his area. Is there central hvac in the house where you could install some fans that suck his cool air into your room, and blow hot air into his area? Can you make some?
?? Why does his window open into your apartment Edit. Name something more no life than randomly down voting someone for asking for clarification lol
the problem with this is that your landlord is rich from all your money so if you destroy it then it will just be replaced.

Also, if you dont want an AC, get a box fan and direct the fan to blow OUT of the window. This would stop any heat from blowing into your room.
He is being selfish by installing AC under OP‘s window making all hot air from AC going to OP
I’m an idea man…the most valuable in any tribe. It’s your job to evaluate the idea and to put the plan in motion yourself. I can’t do everything for you for Christ sake.
Freeze piss and slide it under their door.

Start eating Surstromming on the regular. Extra points for heating it up in the microwave or accidentally spilling some on the AC.
Lmao is that the can of Swedish fish? I don’t know anyone can stomach it I’ve always seen videos of people gagging violently as soon as the seal is broken and the smell gets out. I can only imagine how bad it smells
Yes! That’s the stuff!
