Help Kioko with a HVAC technician's skills: a leaking gas line
Looking for a licensed HVAC technician in Dar es Salaam to donate time or work at cost.
🇹🇿 Dar es Salaam, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania1,349 views
In August an inspector told me that my home has a leaking gas line. It's a safety risk for me and my two small children. The landlord has refused to act, and quotes of $290 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 $35.
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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Thinking of you, Kioko. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'll check back for the next update.
Thanks for sharing this, Kioko. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless
Sending love. Shared it with a few friends. After 9 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Wishing you peace, Kioko. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless.

Thinking of you and your family. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. All the best.
Stay strong. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Dasmariñas
Wishing you the best. This could happen to any of us. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Wishing you the best, Kioko. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Stay strong, Kioko. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless
Good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Dar es Salaam
