I would love to have a three-phase service. It's just more efficient for

I'm ever in a position to get a new service to my house, I'm going to take
a good hard look at it, and damn the cost.
That AC is probably putting out a whole lot of noise-- have any problems
with that 8530?
ISTR there was a model that had 3-phase blower
motors. A three-phase
motor will not operate on single-phase. It *has* to have all three
legs to run.
We had an 8530 that needed 3-phase. I had to install the plug on the
panel for our AC because our machine-panel only had two legs
(everything we had was single-phase 120VAC except the TU78 - 220V).
Our AC was large enough that it had a 3-phase compressor.
