Easy Start has solid state controls that will trip the unit if there are any abnormalities. Can't find any reports of where the compressor was damaged by its malfunction.

Typical warranty:
Failure, damage or repairs due to faulty installation, misapplication, abuse, improper servicing, unauthorized alteration or improper operation.
Parts or equipment not supplied or designated by Company, or damages resulting from their use.

I think the Unathorized Alteration is the catch-all for what we are talking about.

Who would give you this approval in writing? If I were just a dealer or installer, I wouldn't.

They may not so you won't be able to install one until the warranty is over. No harm in seeking authorization is there?
