For renters, one of the perks is calling someone else to do tasks around the house, however well my landlord is exhausting about getting back to me plus I am a handy guy.
I don’t love sitting around waiting for him to call a professional when I can get the labor done myself.
I have fixed my dryer so more than 2 times. I also have repaired the stove, ice maker plus the dishwasher at least once. The Heating as well as Air Conditioning plan with the apartment is a mess too. Thank goodness I am a certified Heating as well as Air Conditioning worker. If not, I would have been without heating plus cooling. The landlord should pay for plus send a Heating as well as Air Conditioning worker out to the apartment. I never mentioned my profession. I also don’t want to labor after hours either; So I was more than willing to have someone else make the repair. Well when no one was arriving, I had to get out my tools plus do it. I have replaced fan belts, tightened bolts, added more refrigerant plus even did HVAC duct cleaning for free. I recently observed I wasn’t getting enough cooling in my apartment. I checked the indoor air handler plus all was well. Then I saw the outdoor air compressor was at an angle. When it is tilted, the refrigerant pools to one side of the unit plus the air you get isn’t cooled down respectfully. I had to purchase blocks to level the outdoor air compressor. It now works wonderful though. It does irritate me that I am making this lazy guy’s apartment so much better though.
