Update: found an Ace hardware in Metairie that had one (1) capacitor in my size on a Sunday morning. Swapped it out, now we coolin. Thanks for the insight, OT.

awww frick nawww
i am sorry ,, I've lost power in this house since I got moved in it was such an accomplishment to get out of an apartment into a house with all that I've gone through but man I lose the power at this place all the time and also the Hurricanes and the windstorms that fricking sucks having AC it nearly killed
mot kidding,,I'm came close to clocking out and didt What any of you had had for lunch because I had no power I had no AC I had no O T
sucks to be without
And yeah go to Lowe's or Home Depot and spend a $1000 getting four or three of the nicer portable ones I did it after Hurricane in Houston and yeah had those things for years when I had a house that's what I used to do and then you just get the A c fixed when they're not **** you
and then you just get the AC fixed when they're not fricking you

Check the cap, if it's bad you might be able to one day ship from online and have cool air again by Sunday whilst saving an arse load of money from an HVAC guy doing the same thing.

Over the course of my long life (thank God) I’ve had a half dozen water heaters go out. Always on a weekend and about 2 or 3 months after the warranty goes out. I feel your pain.

I think Lowes or HD stocks the common size capacitors.
Posted on 5/23/25 at 8:50 pm to OysterPoBoy
I’m sorry to hear this OP, I guess we all gotta get got. If it makes you feel any better I’m on a long bad luck streak with house stuff. I’m convinced it’s just like baseball, gotta go the other way at some point.
Posted on 5/23/25 at 8:51 pm to forkedintheroad
I've got spare caps waiting on that day. And breakers.

Fate has called upon you to take up the wonderful memorial day sales at Lowes or Home Depot.

I don't know how you could live in south Louisiana without a few window shakers for back up for A/C outages or power outages. My modestly sized Generator can easily run 3 window units and they kept our 2500sf house cool, they probably could freeze out our current house.

frick.
I'm sorry man.
I'm sorry man.

Very glad that I no longer live in an area where I need the AC this early.

Capacitors, thrown breaker, contractor, thermostat, blower fan cap, check the easy shite baw.
