Why do things go kaput when just out of warranty?
Posted: 22nd Feb, '09, 12:34
We've had our villa here for just over a year now. We're getting some real hot weather at the moment. I lived in Singapore for a while so I'm used to the high daytime temperatures (about 35 degrees currently) but at least in Singapore it used to drop to around 25 degrees in the evening. Now it's staying in the 30s at night, so AirCon is King
The aircon service contract (for want of a better phrase) has just finished. Did we want to continue? No, they're a useless bunch of twats who seem to spend more time trying to damage our doors and furniture. We've had a recommendation from someone but, no rush, it's only just been serviced last month
Yesterday - hot day again and we hear this kinda roaring engine sound from above - WTF. Mr PK rushes out to see one of the aircon units dancing on the roof - literally moving about - SERIOUS. It's the aircon unit for our bedroom
and it is quarter to five in the afternoon on a Saturday and most companies finish at 5 and do not work on a Sunday
and it's out of warranty by about 2 weeks
