Got in yesterday after a hot days work out in Odessa(108 in da shade)to find my central air compressor locked down.FUQQIN GLOBAL WARMING!!!!!!

Anyway I ran 12 miles over to a neighboring town and bought the biggest window unit they had.....only 12,000 btu but it'll cool our bedroom and the kitchen.My ac guy is supposed to be arriving anytime now with a new compressor........he had to pick it up in Abilene.The real pizzer is I replaced this same compressor 6 years ago for $1100.......it had a 5 year warranty.My ac guy assured me this won't happen again because the replacement this time carries an 8 year warranty.......AND FUQQING COST $1700.

I'd step outside and scream FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ at the top of my lungs...........but it's already 102.

that really sucks...............Ask my wife and son, I go out on the deck and scream all sorts of stuff to vent, even in this hot weather we been having, go ahead, you'll feel better for a few seconds at least, hehe.

Course my closest neighbor isn't even within sight, LOL.

Ron, R-22 compressor?

If so, be glad your HVAC guy was able to find you one at all. They're getting scarce.

Yep what he said and to clue ya in F-22 6 yrs ago was in the neighborhood of 30 lbs for around 70 dollars today a 30 lb cylinder is 367 dollars so expect a higher price on the total cost also.

And I hope if this was a burn out of the compressor he will install a clean up kit to get the acid out of the oil so you don't have this happen again in 1 or 2 yrs even if it is under warranty the timing always sucks when they break

OK for the record......I didn't scream,too many neighbors.I did pick one(that 70 YO crotchety bassturd that mows his grass in a speedo.I was sick of having to look at his wrinkled up azz) out in my scoped 25-06 and shoot em.Coyotes been hungry....they cleaned up every last bite in about an hour.Feel all better now.

Yes R-22........they come by them easy down here,they're all made in fuqqing MEXICO.Thinking bout buying a backup R-22 unit......don't know how long that southern supply will last.

Finished the install bout 4 hours ago.The house is down to about 77.

I'm chugging my summer swill....Coors longnecks.Fixin to go out and burn one...........I need a reason to smile(besides getting rid of my wrinkly neighbor)so I think I'll fire up one of those LGD Small Batch #4 Oscuro's.The weekend is starting to improve.

Oh and I had Mongolian beef,shrimp mei fun,steamed dumplings and shrimp fried rice........you couldn't fit the schit I'm fixin to take out the bomb bay doors of a B-52.Yep.......it's gonna be a good day Tater.
