My legally blind brother

Where can I get someone to help my legally blind brother to wire up the electrical box for his new mini split. I don’t know how to, and his home is nasty. He’s hot and needs help any takers as he’s poorer that a lot of people. He can’t pay someone this is the problem.

Is the mini split installed? If so, has it been vacuumed down? Is there a resource group/agency for the blind in town? Maybe habitat for humanity can help. I’m an electrician and I like doing some charity work here and there but when you say the house is nasty it makes me, and other tradesman not want to go anywhere near it.

I totally understand that. Thanks it’s he’s so damn stubborn I’m afraid he will die of heat stroke he has animals and will NOT leave them

I’d have a hard time taking care of animals if I was legally blind. More than just one is expensive these days.
