Title: Do your appliances sing?
Post by: Thunderwave on October 19, 2010, 07:51:26 PM
My fridge or freezer sings to me often.  It sings a nice tenor voice melody while it turns on the cooler.  It's kind of comforting when I feel down.

Does any of your appliances sing?  If not you are missing out. :dance:

Although it gets frustrating when it sings tri-tones.  :-\

Just before it died, my old TV Set was making Science-Fiction Noises.

Does that count?

Music is in the ear of the beholder.  I find a lot of sci-fi sounds to be very musical.  :dink:

My air conditioner made the strangest groaning/gasping sounds that I have ever heard from a machine . It sounded almost human  and I was beginning to wonder if it was possessed.  It was of course not very soothing to hear at night ,especially after
a hard day at work. The problem was that the fan motor bearings were bad.Luckily ,
I had a pair of scooter wheels that I had  bought at a dollar store.The bearings from those wheels were a direct fit for the fan motor , so I used them and they have worked great for two seasons. :)

I get the feeling from both your responses that either my fridge is not healthy, or I am imagining tenor voices....
