A licensed HVAC technician to fix a dangerous fault at Evans's home in Dar es Salaam
Evans has a septic backup, and can't afford a licensed HVAC technician to fix it; a few hours of professional help would make the home safe.

In August an inspector told me that my home has a septic backup. It's a safety risk for me and my newborn. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $370 are beyond us.
I'm looking for a licensed HVAC technician who may be able to donate a few hours or do the repair at cost. I can cover the parts, which I estimate at $25.
The job should take about three hours. I'll make sure someone is home and will provide refreshments. I can share the inspector's written report on request.
If you're a HVAC technician and can help, or know a program that assists with this sort of repair, I'd really appreciate it.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending good thoughts, Evans. Hope this works out for you. After 27 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Üsküdar.

Take care. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Sandton.
Wishing you the best, Evans. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
