There’s so many old things in my house that I need replacing.
I live rent out my house and my landlord just doesn’t seem like he has the time or money to update them.
I’m paying my landlord $1200 a month so I don’t see why he wouldn’t have the money. But there are times when I do have to worry about my landlord coming in and doing repairs and updates to the house. I always have to make sure that my apartment is clean because I don’t want my landlord coming in and seeing how dirty it can get and I also have to hide my cat because no pets are allowed. Last month we were starting to get in the springtime and where I live, once spring hits the weather starts to reach between 75 and 85 degrees. So I went to my thermostat and I turned temperature down to 65 so the air conditioning system could kick on. For the past two days I experienced no cool air coming from out of the air vents. Sometimes the air conditioning system wouldn’t kick on and then other times when I would hear something kick on but there was just warm air coming out of the air registers. I was very confused and since I’m no heating or cooling technician, I decided to call my landlord to see if he could fix the issue. It turned out to be a very easy fix. Since the unit is old there is a switch on the furnace that needed to be set to the season. For example it had to be set to cool so the thermostat could work with the air conditioning system. I really wish that my landlord would have told me this so I wouldn’t have to bother him and scramble around trying to clean my house quickly and hide my cat.
