Woke up to a lightning strike around 5:30 am.
Everything in the joint turned on due to a power surge.
Now I have power in half my unit.
Waiting for Hydro to do their stuff.
This happened once before and we lost K’s Apple computer and the TV, we had a surge protector installed in the breaker box after that episode.
So far everything that has power is working.
And now for a fridge update …
Thanks to everyone for their help.
In the end it seemed prudent to write the fridge off.
Not only had the fresh food section ceased to work but the door seals are also failing and I just couldn’t justify spending more on a unit we had paid around 1200 bucks for over a decade ago.
11 years seems a long lifespan for an appliance these days. Right now it doesn’t have power.
I hope the replacement lasts longer, I opted for a basic top freezer model from Frigidaire, one they’ve been making for years, lots of good reviews and I’m sure the internet never lies.
Cost is reasonable after a discount with taxes and delivery charges it’s just under $1100.00 Bucks
Delivery is Saturday. That was a motivator, other models I looked at had an August delivery “estimate.”
