I have been having a hard time getting a current HVAC installed.
I have known from the get-go that our apartment would be challenging.
The previous owners just had a window air conditioning component plus space furnaces to keep the apartment comfortable. Both of us have a mediocre climate here so that is doable, but however, it is not ideal. With pets, I don’t like to leave space furnaces running unattended as it is not entirely safe. Additionally, I like to be cold at night, especially in the summer. So 1 window air conditioning was not going to chop it. No. I needed central heating plus air. I had an HVAC provider come out to the apartment plus supply myself and others an estimate. The worker started inside of the house. He found the perfect locale for all of the air duct, vents, plus even for the utility closet. The problem arose when he went outside to find a locale for the compressor. My apartment is on a bit of a hill. And, because of the water in this area, our apartment is built even higher up. This poses a problem because the compressor needs to be, more or less, level with the house. The HVAC worker said he would need to talk to his supervisor plus get back to me. That was over 2 weeks ago plus I still have not heard anything back. I tried calling twice in that time plus no 1 has gotten back to me. So now I am working with another HVAC supplier plus they are suggesting building stilts for the compressor. I guess that would work. I just hope they suppose what they are doing.
