Mother Nature doesn't pull her punches! ⚡️
A recent lightning strike grounded directly onto this AC lineset, sending such a massive electrical surge that it blew a hole straight through the solid copper piping.
The Local Roots team quickly cut out the compromised copper, pressed in brand-new piping, and got the system back online and protected. 🛠️❄️
Freak damage like this is exactly why HVAC surge protection is a must. A dedicated surge protector acts as a shield, stopping massive spikes before they fry your control boards, destroy your compressor, or weld your plumbing.
Don't leave your most expensive home appliance exposed. DM or call Local Roots today to secure your equipment before the next storm hits! 🛡️⛈️
