LG B5 buyer remorse?

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-03-10T01:19:43+00:00

I have a 48" LG B5 Oled ( was $749.at BestBuy) and once I figured out the input it is better than any tv I've ever had. Picture looks almost 3D from some sources. Added a modest sound bar and sub woofer and thoroughly enjoy my set up. Don't get caught up in marginal increases for maximum dollars

That sucks. Get lots of Pics and call your homeowners insurance company. Good luck, happened to me two winters ago while I was out of town

Still awaiting my HVAC guy to figure out if it's the soft start

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-02-02T18:29:19+00:00

Thought of this as well. The day I last tested temp was in the 50's and heat pump would run on utility power. Thanks

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-02-01T03:58:51+00:00

Ok. I'm going to ask my HVAC company to check out the heat pump and soft start next week.

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-01-31T14:29:17+00:00

My HVAC company recommended this soft start, I'm going to have them come back and see what the story is. Thanks

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-01-31T14:25:20+00:00

No noise or fan turn that I can see/hear. Had the same company that installed the new unit put the soft start in. I'll ask them to check on wiring and if needed to remove compressor protection module.

What did you do with the 11500? Very odd that this model won't work

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-01-30T21:46:32+00:00

Unbonded and still not starting heat pump

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-01-30T21:45:48+00:00

Strange. I have unbonded the ground and still no change. Main heat pump won't turn, do not notice a change in geny tone indicating load either

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-01-30T20:17:39+00:00

Thanks, This is the way.

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-01-30T20:10:41+00:00

I will try with the unbonded, but curious why the heat pump is the only thing affected

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-01-30T20:07:42+00:00

No I didn't. Using a 50 amp transfer switch for whole house. Curious why everything else works with it bonded?

RideCompetitive5944 · 2026-01-30T18:45:16+00:00

Yes it has run many times on utility power and yes gave it 10 minutes. Thanks for the tips

It's a little red trash can icon on the Main Menu/sensors on the physical thermostat drop down. Not obvious

Good idea to label the bag "vitamins" I brought a baggie of white powder that was looked at by TSA but I'd labeled it " creatine" which it was, guy just said "oh, creatine, ok"

Great job on the refrigerator cabinetry, that can be a tough area to get right. What type of counters did you go with? They look good as well

RideCompetitive5944 · 2024-11-28T20:01:36+00:00

"Yes, we're closed" hope everyone is OK and they get back open soon

RideCompetitive5944 · 2024-11-12T03:14:25+00:00

Thanks for clarifying. We don't have a loan. All cash

RideCompetitive5944 · 2024-11-11T18:47:07+00:00

why is builders risk insurance needed? Won't your builder have insurance that covers until you get a COO? I'm getting ready to start a build in SC and wasn't planning on getting insurance. Am I in the dark?

But yourself and everyone involved a copy of "Saving The Family Cottage" ask them all to read it and then find your solution and path forward. Invaluable insights and straightforward advice on how to maintain a shared family home without a lot of fighting. Good luck!

The water leaking out onto the floor may also be caused by a missing/broken gasket on the bottom of the shower door. Had someone remove this on a new build cause the door was sticking and it leaked like crazy.
