Agreed ! They dont last. i just replaced 2. 2 - 5 year old heatcraft units. Timers would not turn hardly anymore. only 5 years old. Paragons will go 10+ years easy.
Good vid. With that Arizona heat u have --- i would not be using those Grasslin time clocks. only the Analog paragons. electronics don't like heat as u know. only indoors would i use grasslin. Looks Like that unit needs a Lp control. That thing had to be in a deep vacuum with that pump down time & still Lp was in. definitely no good. Do You Have A Link --- For your umbrella & mag set up ? Cool umbrella set-up. Very smart ! saves your ass ill bet.
