Tracy said he used a hair dryer to heat the drain tube and get it flowing again. I was not home at the time, so I need to contact him to figure out how to do this so that we don't have the problem again in the future.

I hope this new panel lasts more than 5 yrs.<br /><br />You need to come up the temps have dropped since the rain moved in.JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658713978278693047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934868149022275137.post-312960826160304682012-06-26T04:54:54.220-07:002012-06-26T04:54:54.220-07:00Such a good feeling to pay down that mortgage, eve...Such a good feeling to pay down that mortgage, even better once its gone!<br />They just don't make things to last anymore, but at least you got cold Miller again.our awesome travelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13031755671050584629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1934868149022275137.post-78275942878173291362012-06-26T04:20:03.152-07:002012-06-26T04:20:03.152-07:00Looks suspiciously like our fridge, which I instal...Looks suspiciously like our fridge, which I installed back in 2001? (memory's dim)<br />It's still going. Finger's crossed. Only had an issue with the drain tube being blocked. *Note* if opening frozen peas, make damned sure the bag is closed again?<br />Anyway, it replaced a used fridge that I bought in about 95 or so that REFUSED to die. It got moved downstairs where it continued to chug along until there was some 'deal' where the municipality (you'd call it the "township" I suppose) was willing to pick up old fridges. I knew it wasn't the most efficient, so it finally had to go. I think that old fridge was over 30 years old when we parted company. It still ran, even though I'm sure it used the energy of three or four modern ones. <br />Hope that's the last part you'll need for a long time.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.com
