Re: [pvusers] refrigeration once again

[Michael Welch <michael.welch@homepower.com>]

I live in the community where Sun Frost fridges are made. I have known the owner, Larry Schlussler, for a couple of decades, + or -.

While I am not going to argue for or against the choice of Sun Frost, I will state with no hesitation that Larry is trustworthy. He may not have the info that someone wanted, but I cannot believe that he is not to be trusted.

Sun Frosts are not for everyone. But for many they are the only way to go. You have to decide if it is the right fridge for you, but please do not spread around a post that Sun Frost is not to be trusted.
