Hot, Hot. Woke up at 11PM last night so hot I was sick. I thought that my temperature had returned until I realized the house was 84 degrees and climbing with the air running. Got up and checked the intake filter and the registers were putting out air that was 3 degrees hotter than the intake air. Went outside to the hat pump and heard this loud growl. Fan motor had burned up. I have a contract with the company so I called at midnight and they sent a guy out and he replaced the fan motor and what a difference. And what a price for a motor, but the contract saved me over $100 dollars. So basically no sleep at all last night but I think that fan motor must have been starting to go a couple of days ago as I noticed the registers weren't putting out air as cool as normal. Now with my digital thermometer the intake air is about 7 degrees hotter than the output through the registers. Tonight I will sleep. I am going to have this entire unit changed out one of these days to one of the newer more energy efficient ones, but not while it is working so well and I don't want to go several days in the Summer with no cooling.
Just supposed to bet up to 109 today so that means around 113 out here. And humid.
