Power was acting odd. Checked the main in th breaker box. One leg was 136volts the other was 101.

Called the power company thay had it fixed in about 2 hours or so.

It burnt up the circuit board inside the furnace found it by smell. Also my new upright freezer won't come back. on. Its full of deer beef and chickens.

Is it something that can be fixed on the freezer and if so would it be worth it. It has a digital display on the door abd it just stays black now.

The freezer is probably toast, I guess you can try unplugging then "rebooting"... they don't like power surges or low voltage...hope I'm wrong...

You may be able to put a claim in against the power company if it was on there end

If the freezer is over seven years old, replace it. Your homeowner policy should cover these damages, subject to your chosen deductible. Call your agent and keep your receipts and documentation from the power company.

I called the place I bought it to see if they had new ones in stock and what the current price is. The fellow told me I bought a 5 year warranty and it should be covered.

Unfortunately its the weekend so will be Monday beat the earliest before they can look at geting a repair man to come and decide if its tosted.

Its full of beef. Im not sure it will stay frozen that long. May have to load it all up and put it in dad's extra freezer.

Cheap is relative. And not my largest consern but is a consern since im living off savings and have not been to work in at least a month and a half and I dont believe my Neurologist is going to release me to go back any time soon if ever. So yes im watching my spending.

The other issues are space and geting what I want in stock late evening on Saturday night and the store that has it in stock is not open on sunday.

So loading uo the truck and driving it the few hundred yards to dad's if it starts thawing out works quite well.

I did clear out space for another upright tonight now. But I think I would rather put in a simk and table for the wife there in the laundry room.

I would get the meat out ASAP, as a freezer full of meat may well be worth what several average freezers are worth.

That’s a bummer. Have done some service calls where they have lost the neutral. It can get expensive as far as electronics and appliances it ruins.
