Default You think noise is a problem - Whirlpool refrigerators causes electrical issues

Purchased a new home in The Villages about one year ago. From the beginning, opening Whirlpool refrigerator door has tripped various breakers causing power outage. Fields has been very nice helpful. However, today (yes, almost a year later) when the Fields technician came out he called Whirlpool engineering and they told him to do nothing but have the residents monitor which lights go off and which breakers trip (and, believe this the position they are in when they trip).

The Whirlpool engineers are very aware of the issue. But so far, neither Whirlpool or The Villages have offered a solution.

Bad part is - would you buy a house where there have been electrical issues since day 1? I think not so the value of our home has been drastically reduced if not erased.

Totally a bad situation with no help in sight.
