Stolen Condenser Question

[Jeremy Paschedag]

I've recently had a tenant move out. When the locks were changed, my guy tells me the AC Condenser was stolen.  Makes me madder than I can express.

My question is, where is the best place to buy cages to minimize this in the future?

just call any HVAC company they will know who to refer you too.. while caging is a nice deterrent if they really want them they just bring a Sawzall and cut the cage.. there is also companies that put lojacks on these things.. you can google those.

If I was going back into land lording in areas were these thefts are common and its pretty much common in the cash flow areas of major MSA's  I would try to retrofit them up onto the roof.. like we see in the desert..
