Electrical problems with our Heating & Air Conditioning

I am the first to admit that I am not the most mechanically inclined however I have to share a situation that left me feeling more clueless than ever; Both of us bought our beach condo about many years ago & I have been able to repair a few small things over that time.

When it comes to anything more than tightening a screw or changing a lightbulb I depend on our wife as she grew up in a condo where her dad fixed just about everything.

This, by the way, makes me know even more foolish at times, then i grew up in an condo where everything was just fixed for us by the building service guy. Anyway, when the heat broke a few weeks back I called our Heating & Air Conditioning business to have them send out a worker. Both of us have a self-explanatory boiler & baseboard heat which normally doesn’t require that much service. I figured it would be an self-explanatory repair & the guy would be on his way. I took the afternoon off & waited for the service guy to show up. I figured an seventh tops for the appointment & he would be on his way. Well all of that changed when he told me that I would have to call in an electrician too. It turned out that mice had chewed through some of the wiring in the wall & caused the electrical ignition panel on the boiler to short circuit, but not only were every one of us going to have to spend our money to have that fixed however every one of us would need the wiring fixed before every one of us could turn the heat back on. I was glad to hear that our worker had a number for someone that could come out that same afternoon & every one of us had our heat back on by nightfall.
