A good HVAC guy is hard to find.

I had the good fortune of stumbling across a good, independent appliance repair guy. Seemed like a bit of a Trumper, but he installed a new compressor in my fridge and I'm going to get another decade out of it, at least. When I went with Home Depot repair services, and then a "certified" Maytag repairman, the fixes died within months. This guy I hired is a one-man show who had special devices with hacked software on them (like, stuff the manufacturer uses that they don't want the general public to have) that allowed him to diagnose any problem in a variety of brand name appliances.

Trump's destroying America, but I'm willing to compromise for a good repair technician!
