Arrived at my place this afternoon. It was about 115F in the shade. Water temp is a awesome 77F. So hot the A/C on the roof gave out. It was 97F in here when I arrived. The A/C was working for about 1 hr and then quit. I'm like oh shit I guess I'm going to have to go back to my home in Havasu. But I did some thinking about what I need to do to make this A/C unit work. Went up on the roof to find 1 of 2 blown out 40 amp fuses. Thank god I had some spares in the garage but they were 60 amps. Went back up on the roof in these super hot temps, pulled the fuses block on the A/C unit and replace them with new fuses and wala, it's working again. I know a little bit about A/C units and how they work thank god. Now my weekend isn't ruined. Time for a ice cold Coors Light!

I once arrived at our place in Parker and the main breaker went out sometime prior. Well it was hotter inside than outside, at least 115*. I was saved when I called the local repair guys. I think they were in Parker doing service calls but are based out of Havasu. They installed a new breaker and saved me from having to drive home because I had our 2 dogs with me. :bowdown:

I got lucky. Didn't even have to call the repair guys. This has happened before in the past. The A/C unit on the roof is old. It's been up there since 1984 with no major repairs. It's definitely done it's job over the years. It seems to fail when it's very hot outside.
