The heating system upstairs in our house really needs to be repaired.

• I don’t know what’s going on with it, but it’s not really heating the area that needs to be heated.

Any time any one of us in our family tries to sleep up there, it’s a terrible thing. We go to sleep okay, but then in the middle of the night, we wake up freezing. The last time that I tried to sleep up there, I think the temperature dropped all the way down to 55 degrees! It was really cold outside that night, and since the heating wasn’t working the right way upstairs, it got colder and colder in the upstairs bedroom until finally it was so cold that it woke me up. I told my parents that they are going to have to do something about the heating system up there, but my dad is convinced that our heating system is just fine. He thinks that the only problem with the heating in that particular room is that there is some kind of a blockage in the ventilation system. He says that if something is blocking the ductwork for that room, then it could possibly be keeping all of the heating out of the room. I guess that theory makes sense, but either way, we need to have a professional HVAC technician come out here to check it out. I have no idea how to unblock a ventilation duct, and neither does my dad. We need to make an HVAC repair appointment as soon as we can, I think.
