Older heating and cooling component is installed outside
My spouse and I spent the majority of our lives in the northern area of the country. All of us were genuinely accustomed to long winters, un-even temperatures well below zero and endless amounts of snow! Once the people I was with and I retired, the people I was with and I started looking for a apartment much further south. All of us were ready to trade in our snow boots for sandals. As the people I was with and I toured multiple properties for sale, the people I was with and I noticed some giant differences! Houses in the south don’t respectfully have basements or thermal pane windows. There’s concerns with sinkholes and termites. The apartment the people I was with and I chose is constructed of stone block and the water pump is situated outside. All of us have a packaged component that combines heating and cooling capacity. The unit is huge and also located outdoors. It sits on a stone pad and is totally exposed to the elements. Although the temperature never drops below cold and there’s no snow in this area, there’s lots of rain, heat, humidity and high winds. There’s constantly twigs, leaves and other debris falling on the outdoor component. I’ve watched lizards crawl inside of it. The heating/cooling component is also super old, rather rusty and makes a ton of noise, we’re afraid to have it professionally worked on because the people I was with and I suppose rust and dirt might be the only thing holding the component together. The plan manages to put out plenty of cool air to keep the apartment perfectly comfortable on those especially hot and humid Summer mornings. It uses gigantic ducts that are hidden in the crawlspace and fastened to vents in the ceiling. If the Winter time is unusually cold, the plan struggles a bit in heating mode. It can ice over. We’ve added a small electric space heating system to help out with the Winter time workload.
