A Better Trigger For My Fixed Air Conditioner

The air conditioning unit in our house is a fixed installation, and until now switching it on meant walking over to it and pressing a button by hand.

In this clip I show the alternative I ended up using: the unit gets started the same way as everything else in my home, without touching the device itself.

It is a small change in daily use, but it removes one of those little detours that quietly annoy you every single time.
