Subject：Air-conditioning system

Dear Mr. Zhu，

We agreed that I should come to your company to replace your air-conditioning system on October 4. However, the specific air conditioner mentioned in our contract, the Xinyang Standard, is not available.The next shipment is expected the second week of October.We could delay the installation or, if you prefer, use an XYZ air conditioner, which is also an excellent brand and very similar to the Xinyang.The cost would be the same.

I recommend that we go ahead with the XYZ, but will wait for your instructions. Please call me at 1111111 to let me know what you would like me to do.

Yours sincerely，

Tim Chang

主题：空调系统

亲爱的朱先生：

按事先的约定我本该于10月4日到贵公司为您更换空调系统，但是，我们协议中注明的那款空调现在没有货，下一批货预计10月的第二周发货，因此，我们得推迟安装时间了；或者，如果您愿意的话，使用XYZ牌的空调。这个牌子的空调也很好，与信阳牌空调非常相似，而且价格也是一样的。

我建议使用XYZ的空调，但我会等待您的指示。请打电话告诉我您希望我们怎么做。我的电话号码是1111111。
