DOUBLE WHAMMY
We had two power blips yesterday and true to past experience, the AC went down.
Overheated compressor.
Gotta get the guy and he checks it out and then pours water on it for 15 minutes.
Now I know this but he doesn't and so he has to go through the full diagnostic. He came just after supper. After about 90 minutes off.
It climbed from 77 to 85 in just that small amount of town. Welcome to the desert.
He got it going, good.
This morning, I was in the freezer out in the garage to put away the frozen stuff I had bought and I realized the freezer was not running. It was up to 20F,
Shit!
John said that it might not be plugged in. Before I dismissed his input we went and looked.
Goddamn. The AC guy had been boogering around doing the checkup and knocked the freezer plug out. One problem started another.
I have taped the freezer plug into the receptacle so that next time he will have to remove tape and pull to get the same result.
I remember that the first thing Tom checked when a computer went out was the plug. A product of the cleaning crew. Same here.
