Thanks to the major winter storm/power outage we had, our heat pump is KAPOOT! Or at least part of it is.
the night the power went out, it kept trying to come back on. It must have flashed 50 times in 10 minutes or less. When the power finally came back on 3 days later and we tried to start our heat pump..it kept tripping the breaker and making the lights flash.
We called in the experts
and the verdict was that our compressor is shot. The snow and power surges caused it to burn up.
So the guys came out to repair it:
you can see where the compressor got hot and "burned" part of the label off making it white:
once it was running we found out there is more damage and we are working to figure out all that....repair/replace? Ugh. :(
