Curiously enough I have now had the GE repair people in to look at this unit
and they confirm that as is, it does self-destruct after a few years and
their technical team are fully aware that you have to have that melting mat
changed every 4-5 years. They don't tell you this before the unit has
self-destructed of course and now don't want to replace a unit which is
obviously 'unfit for purpose'. The repair man now says that they aren't
responsible as it CAN be repaired. When he was here, his tune was a bit
different.
Then he said that to do the repair would cost $198 but that as it would
undoubtedly need a pump eventually when the melted matting caused the pump
to seize, putting one in as well would make any repair uneconomical!
