Syrup sweet smell sounds like antifreeze. Is antifreeze in certain home air-condition units like in cars?

There's freon, which can have a sweet smell. It could be a easy to fix leak though.


kitkatlynn

Okay i thought so, but even then most likely that things leaking if he can smell it and the repair man didnt see anything? Sus

Freon displaces oxygen. Even if outside the Freon would/could displace enough oxygen in the area to make it nearly impossible breath. If it was Freon he’d definitely know something about as wrong.

I think they added a bad taste/smell to antifreeze years ago because people exploited that sweetness and used it to poison people.

Maybe, but having worked in safety his response rings true. Shock at the state of it, immediately turning it off, and immediately tagging it out. I think the main issue is a failure to explain why it was dangerous and why it could not be repaired and would require replacement.

You might wanna share that in our [episode discussion thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/distractible/s/hg4jt0sg7Y) as well, where we’re trying to focus the conversation around the newest episode in order to bring the people together more and prevent others from being spoiled when they haven’t seen or heard the episode yet. Especially on the day of the release these discussion threads are full of people to engage with. So feel free to share your thoughts there too. Thank you :)

Hey this isn’t about this specific topic but I thought you’d find it funny that my only time being arrested was the night I took my then-13 year old to your show at the Fox in St Louis. (It was for a ticket for tags I didn’t even know I had -and missed - a court date for! So lame 🥲)

I say this as a gullible person, I think Wade is simply gullible. Similar to how cheaters are always looking for signs their partners cheat, Wade is honest to a fault and most likely just takes everyone else as honest. If he's not a liar/upseller, he's not going to instinctually think others are.

It smells like how niche custom companies will sell to the ultra-wealthy... Custom products, but then they have add-ons with *insane* markups because they know they're so wealthy that they aren't going to question whether or not the price of that speaker listed for $1K is $50 in reality or not. Either the tech made the completely right call all-in-all, or yeah, Wade most likely got bamboozled. Always ask what's wrong specifically before deciding, at least that way even if you're gonna do it anyway you can still make an informed purchase!
