My Tale of Woe

[Alphatreedog]

So I installed a 4 zone 38,000btu mini split system 3 yrs ago . Absolutely put the window units to shame and cheaper to run . But alas , a long comes a power surge and ferrrnnnnt . Burnt the boards on all of the heads and the outdoor unit . WTF . $4,500 paper weight . Instead of ducking with swapping out board and possible fans I bought a whole new system .
$4,200 after tax and shipped . Exact same model . Plumbing , electrical and mounting brackets are already there .

So a little PSA . Get a whole house surge protector . It'll save you a ton O cash . Guy 2 doors down had the controller on his furnace get zapped at the same time . Almost 2G repair .

Your homeowners policy wouldn't cover that?

Didn't try . Had 2 car accidents in 2 years . Policy is bundled cars and life . Went front $280 a month to $732 a month . State Farm . I'm afraid to file a claim .
Daughter destroyed our mini van . I got hit on an on ramp . Because the on ramp has to yield it was my fault . Fucker hit me and my fault .
