For reasons unknown, out air conditioner decided to crap out and it's been misearable. It began Sunday when it became noticeable after awhile that the house wasn't getting any cooler even though I'd been running the air conditioner for about two hours.
I also noticed that the air conditioner was making some loud noises- like straining machinery. Well, we have been running the air conditioner pretty heavy lately and it's probably about 20 years old so it I guess it was inevitable.
Fortunately, we have a home warranty so hopefully we'll not have to pay a lot to get it fixed. I hope it doesn't go the same way that the water heater went- sure the warranty covered replacing the physical unit but we have to do all sorts of "upgrades" that totalled up to $700 (originally it was going to be $1200 out of pocket but we protested and got a second opinion). What I DON'T want to hear is "Oh, you got to replace the complete unit and it's going to cost a bazillion $$$$" That's crap. Don't want to hear it.
To make matters worse, the warranty company will not be able send someone around until Thursday so we get to swelter until then. What crap.
