Washers, dryers and freezers that sat in Helene's surge and need inspecting before anyone plugs them in, garage refrigerators losing ground to summer heat, dryer vents running under manufactured homes, condenser coils pitted by salt air along the canals, compact appliances in park homes, and French-door refrigerators and front-load washers in Trinity's newer houses.
