With 43°C outside temperatures for the last 2 days and the same forecast for tomorrow and the A/C only good for about 10°C temp diff between outside and in, I've had to turn off my machines at home. BUGGER! But the A/C was struggling to the point where it was turning off due to the compressor being too hot. A newer, larger A/C has been purchased and should be installed in just over 36hrs time. It will miss tomorrows hot one, but from then on it should be good to go!

Experience is a wonderful thing: it enables you to recognize a mistake every time you repeat it.

Is that why the outside temp is going to go down? He is going to fix that? Wow! I wonder if I can find a franchise here that has that secret ... :)
