our ac died - again

Oh yeah - the AC they replaced 08-03-2015 works great as an AC but the HEAT does NOT work!!!
 
welp - new ac lasted 2 whole years! Was having trouble keeping us cool when dog days of 110+ hit & muggy overcast days kilt it off yesterday. Son called it in & actually got a trouble call for this am! Always took me 3+ days to get results!
 
ok, day 3 of SHOW ALL CONTENT popup in IE & no paragraphs - melds everything I post into 1 gigantic sentence? I tried updating/clearing & even rebooting - still bad?

ac wasn't fixed - said he'd come back this am if still an issue

340am power went out until 520 am!!!

he added more refrigerant & it has gotten cooler - only 81 not 88 now :rolleyes:
 
drat - 913am & ac stuck at 80 - guess I'll have to call him back

also - in FF it smashes all text into 1 big paragraph - have to remember use IE *only* for forum & FF *only* for Admin Portal
 
ac still not working!

I suggested it was the compressor from the jump but all that was done is to charge & then over-charge w/refrigerant so far

Day 3 & ac guy has to check w/realty company for particulars [if this ac is still under warranty] since they did NOT go thru him for the install & now also he believes it is the compressor
 
ah jeez - turns out a diff co {J&J} installed the [used?] ac 2 yrs ago & have 2 deal w/him to get it fixed - took me 3 calls to ATLAS [mgmt. co] to get Andrew & to find out who to contact - just spoke to J7J & *maybe* tonite but probably not until tomorrow

It is 93 & climbing & I am soaking wet w/a fan full on me & sick to my tummy from the heat :mad:
 
Called J&J [meant to call ATLAS] is now 99 inside & he said IF he can make it today he'll call BUT probably not until tomorrow so bad/little sleep for all yet again :rolleyes:
 
oh great - it's the condenser coil & the only place that carries them is out so no clue when it gets replaced!

J&J shut it off from up top so we can't even run air to keep from suffocating & w/110+ leaving windows/doors open is NOT an option, so if I disappear it was heatstroke :rolleyes::mad:
 
left my 4th voice mail & got a callback - J&J looking high & low for a condenser coil & ATLAS offered to put us up in a hotel & to pro-rate on next months rent

bob is on eve shift so he just got up for work & said no hotel ty anyway
 
day 6 - no return calls from ATLAS

called J&J at 1pm - was told he'd be here in afternoon to "try" to jerry rig a temporary fix - something about copper & aluminum so I think he means brazing/welding but these 2 metals become *highly* corrosive when bonded together so not sure.

4pm called ATLAS & spoke to operator - was told it would take 4 days after part [compressor coil] is ordered to get it. NO clue if it was ordered 2 days ago or not & Monday is Labor Day so we're looking at another week of hell!!!

it is 100 & climbing in here & I have been using cooling towels so I smell moldy :mad:
 
2pm called atlas - J&J brazed/soldered the condenser coil & charged w/Freon around 7pm last night & again it got down to 80 - but no lower

takes 4 days for part to get here so I told Andrew do NOT send him here - he left us w/NOTHING [not even the fan] for 3 days which is why it got over 100 in here even w/5 fans and all doors/windows open - thankfully I'd picked up cooling towels at KMART w/my $250 points win a few years ago so I was wet/moldy all week!

Anyway - just please order the part & leave our ac alone until it arrives & Andrew agreed, YAY!

Since this is Friday, & Monday is a holiday - Labor Day - I figure next Friday soonest.
 
930 am ac set at 72 it was 71 in here!
1224 it's 75 & J&J showed & said no leaks, Freon full & working perfectly
4pm hubby home & it's 77 & rising

this makes NO sense!
