This has been happening 1-2x/month for quite a while, now it’s more like 1-2x/day.
This little pump is plugged into the outlet where the GFCI breaker is located. When the GFCI trips, the whole HVAC system shuts down.
How confident should I be that replacing the
pump would solve my problem? Or is it
Likely that “something else” is tripping it?
I’m 99% certain that the HVAC unit itself is on its own circuit and the pump is wired into a switch on the HVAC, so that if the pump fails the furnace shuts off.
Electricity has freaked me out ever since that time I peed on a fence at grandpa’s farm.
