TradeProTradePro 45+5 MFD 440 Volt Round Capacitor TP-CAP-45/5/440R

Got this to replace the capacitor in our Lennox compressor that was showing evidence of wear (connectors overheated and loose). The A/C service we use wanted over $150.00 to replace this, i did it myself for less than $20 in 10 minutes. May order another to have a fresh spare if needed.

Purchased for a backup when the AC quits again. Had a company come out to fix the AC and they changed the capacitor. They charged $80.00 service call and $145.00 for the capacitor.

The first time this cap blew in my A/C system (which was about a year or so), I paid for a very expensive a/c service call. The a/c tech charged me almost $100 for this capacitor alone. Add to that labor/service call fee, etc. It was stupid expensive. I ordered this so that I could change it myself the next time it happened. I changed it in Jun/2019 and it's still going strong! I have a couple of extras on-hand now so I don't have to be without a/c the next time it goes out while I wait for the part to come in.

I like the product for the money

Simple to use if you need to

The Texas heat is tough on the compressors surrounding components. When our compressor failed to spin up and just “hums” I immediately suspected the capacitor. Sure enough I swapped this part out and voila! Nice cold air again. Thank you!!!

Saves the trouble and expense of A/C Repair guy. Most common thing to go out in the summer.

I order more than 1. I waited to do the review because I wanted to make sure it worked. Best value for my money.
