When our AC froze up, we called out the repair guy, and to my chagrin, it was just the filter. Make sure to check that first...$80 later and a lot of embarrassment...
BTW. Oh wise and wonderful gardener. I just harvested some of our tomatoes, and they were mushy, any insight?
Eric took it apart and cleaned it out, removing 2 year's worth of debris and degreased it or some such. Now we're going to see how it handles tomorrow.
He called an HVAC place that said it would be $220 just to come out and look at it. For that kind of money it was worth it for Eric to give it a go. Tomorrow we'll find out if it works or not.
As for the tomatoes, apparently there are 3 reasons: genetics (it is just inherently that way), if the growing temps are too cold the cell wall starts to break down, or improper storage. Don't store tomatoes in the fridge.
