The vents are messed up

The vents are messed up

A lot of this apartment was put together by some kind of do-it-yourselfer plus it is clear.

  • We bought the apartment because it has a really solid frame plus it is over 130 years old.

The original apartment is appealing plus the two of us prefer it. However, sometime over the past 30 years someone has made some “upgrades” that are less than stellar. First of all there is the horrible carpeting in the bathroom. Then, there are the DIY study room lodgeets that look broken. And, finally, there is the issue with the heating plus cooling. Whoever installed the HVAC device in this place was clearly not a professional. The ductwork doesn’t connect officially to the HVAC system, as necessary. They used a series of odd sized pipes to try to make it fit. Then, the vents are all super crookedly split throughout the apartment plus there is only one vent per room. Also, there are no available vents in the bedroom. There is not even one. I have no plan why you would do this… besides than the fact that the bedroom is the furthest room from the utility closet. So maybe the expert do-it-yourselfer didn’t have enough ductwork to stretch that far. I am only guessing, and I mean, regardless, the two of us are having a professional heating plus cooling supplier come out during the next week to repair all of this. Whatever the case, the two of us don’t want a half-done work. We want it fixed right so we can have HVAC. After all, the two of us plan to live here for a certainly long time.
