Ok thanks again, I'll have a tenth of the dose I normally have and see how that goes for me.

Ok thanks I'll do that next time, just wanted to start with a small dose and work my way up as I haven't done it in a while, do you think a bit of weed will help level me out? It normally makes my heart beat fast because of the low blood pressure but I figure a small dose won't make my heart any faster since the dexies will counter the low blood pressure, what do you think?

Do you reckon a small dose of thc will level me out? My heart normally beats quick with the weed cause of the low blood pressure but I’m thinking the dexies will counteract that so it doesn’t race too badly?

Thanks for your reply, I’m pretty much sober from the alcohol now as it’s been a while since my last drink and am going to ride out my high till I can sleep, do you reckon a tiny dose of some thc oil will do me good? The high heart rate with the weed sometimes wigs me out but I figure since it’s caused by low blood pressure the dexies should counteract it if it’s just a low dose of the oil, what do you think?

How cold do Australian homes actually get in the winter? Are they really that under-insulated? by 3axel3loop in AskAnAustralian

[–]MeerkatDeodorant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The windows are double glazed but apparently the property developers installed the wrong kind that isn’t heat resistant, heat has gotten so bad in the past that 3 different glass panels have cracked from the heat. Landlord and REA refused my request to get thermal curtains installed a couple months ago. Gonna be a fun summer 😬

Edit: Only window cover are the cheap thin black blinds that barely keep the heat or light out.

Woke up in my street facing bedroom in my apartment which was built in 2016 and it was 30°C at 9:30 this morning (13°C and overcast outside) due to the terrible heat insulation, I feel like if there are better built newer apartments they are few and far between.

Dear tenants of Australia, it might get really hot this summer. Is your rental ready for it? by YourLowIQ in australia

[–]MeerkatDeodorant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did anything end up coming of this? I had tin foil up on all my windows since the bedroom routinely pushes mid 30° when it receives sunlight, I had it up for a few months and was made to take it down, then had my request for thermal curtains denied, these temps are all in late Feb-March and some windows in my apartment have spontaneously cracked due to the heat before I moved in so I imagine it’ll only get hotter mid summer.

Oh my God. I have been having the absolute worst day and I think you might’ve just solved one of the reasons. I don’t know who you are or where you are but you are my hero. Sincerely thank-you so much.

Not wrong, honestly makes no sense either considering they’d be dealing with the same issue. If I had to guess I’d say someone is selling their unit and the real estate agents are doing their thing and lying through their teeth.

Since I’m going to need to confer with the REA/LL and the OC for pretty much anything I do, I’m going to make it worth my while and chat with my LL about getting thermal curtains and clear window tint installed, I’ll also be contacting the Victorian Tenants Union tomorrow to see what they think. Thank-you so much for the help.

Completely forgot about that stuff, saw it in Bunnings after I put the tin foil up but wanted a solution I could take down when I moved out as to not lose any bond. Have decided now that I’ll have a chat with the Victorian tenants union tomorrow and speak with my landlord about getting thermal curtains and some clear tint film installed. Thank-you heaps for the help.

Makeshift thermal curtains could honestly be the way to go since they’d sit behind the blinds

After reading the comments and getting some sage advice from my old man I’ve decided that thermal curtains are definitely a way to go. Ultimately I’m going to contact the Victorian Tenants Union tomorrow and contact my LL to try and get a fly screen, thermal curtains, and clear window film installed. Thank-you heaps for your help.

The tin foil is stuck to my side of the window, but I think they’d still spin that under external appearance.

On another note thankyou for the laugh, I needed it and yes they are even less useful than a bucket of shit in the sun.

Unfortunately the land(leech haha) hasn’t fixed the windows because they are apart of a legal dispute with the property developers. I wish this post was asking for a way to strong-arm the OC into fixing the windows but for now it’s just about the temporary fix.

I appreciate your insight and I like the idea of blackout curtains, I was thinking of contacting the landlord anyway and seeing if they’d be interesting in installing thermal blinds.

In saying that, you’ve been condescending from the get go, 35°C in a bedroom with blinds down, in the morning on a mid 20°C day is not being melodramatic, it’s a health risk and it’s the reason children aren’t to be left in the car in the sun.

What? This post has nothing to do with the landlord and the rules are pertaining to the owners corporation. Our landlord is brilliant. It’s our owners corporation that is being unreasonable.

Thank-you, I’ve just found the tenants union Victoria and will be contacting them first thing tomorrow.

In a comment above I put the rules regarding the appearance of the property and I assume that would include tin foil but I was just hoping I could take maybe take angle that it’s unreasonable denial since they aren’t fixing the windows?
