That feeling when your air condition leak through the wall

The last time I decorated my apartment I was so proud that I was able to hide the plastic rails of the air condition in the wall, But not for long :)
This is what happened yesterday!

The whole wall was wet and I had to break it down to find out where the leak was coming from. to my surprise the hole in the gut was huge, first I was just thinking about silikoning and rubbing the hole but it did not work So I came to idea....

I split the hose and inserted a smaller hose in it, and guess what it works!!!
I glued the entire joint with the tape strainer and now air condition works perfectly just look ugly :)

I'll have to close the hole and paint the wall again but in the meanwhile, I founded the solution.20180609_103948.jpg

Although not perfect, Sometimes do it yourself is the best option and I am very proud of my work again :)

Good morning

I'm wondering what made that huge hole. Great job with a little glue and tape saved you some money. With that artwork no one would notice that hole in the wall. How did you trace down where the leak was?

Haha...the painting part is quite creative 👍
