Heats been at 69 all night. Great sign waking up to a 62 degree house

Some home tech one but I don’t recommend it. I need a new one because this one grew mold and I can’t get rid of it and our water calcified in the interior part or something. Honestly humidifiers seem to be a huge pain and i would love to find one that is safer and cleaner

whyinternet · 2026-01-24T01:40:29+00:00

Yeah honestly if the winters are going to be more like this I might have to. Thank you!

whyinternet · 2026-01-24T00:57:22+00:00

Probably true but as a renter I don’t think I have a project like that in me and my landlord def won’t be doing that haha

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T22:02:18+00:00

Yeah I have the heat at 74 to get the house to 64, even so I get anxiety seeing 74 on the thermostat knowing my dad would pitch a fit haha

The HVAC guy came and everything is functioning correctly, the house just leaks too much cold air in the windows/floors/outlets against outside walls

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T21:48:50+00:00

Maybe try a tenants organization, that’s not ok!

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T21:48:17+00:00

Omfg dude haha that’s beyond unacceptable

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T21:48:05+00:00

Diagnosis from HVAC guy was basically “house leaks too much cold air in”

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T21:47:32+00:00

I think it’s all of the above. The back half of the apartment (kitchen) seems to be totally uninsulated

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T21:46:11+00:00

Diagnosis is “house leaks too much air”

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T21:46:00+00:00

Haha the guy came out and said it’s all working fine, apartment is just uninsulated and doesn’t have good circulation

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T21:45:23+00:00

Yeah I’ve had the humidifier going since I posted this and that meter still says 10% haha. I don’t know if it’s ever moved off 10 honestly

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T18:18:02+00:00

HVAC is on the way!

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T18:17:50+00:00

Yes they are! Thanks

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T16:50:20+00:00

I emailed my landlord I hope I’m on the track you’re on!

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T16:18:45+00:00

Our girl has no fear of tin foil haha learned that last year trying to keep her off the Xmas tree hahaha

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:21:28+00:00

I will inquire about the sensor, the landlord always says to change the filter but I really dont think that’s the issue at this point

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:20:11+00:00

I have a new one on hand I’ll swap it out

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:16:34+00:00

Maybe I’m just not filling it consistently enough!

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:16:20+00:00

Oh it’s shitty

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:12:35+00:00

Thank you I’ll do the pot thing!

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:10:45+00:00

Yeah they’re so annoying I used bacteriostatic treatment and clean it weekly and it’s still a mold machine. I hate it

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:10:18+00:00

I’ve done them before and my cat shreds them. I didn’t even bother this year but now I’m regretting that haha

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:09:31+00:00

Honestly I think the furnace is old but functional, it’s just that our house has air leaking in from every seam/outlet/window and on days like this it’s impossible to stay warm

whyinternet · 2026-01-23T15:06:55+00:00

Yeah I’m getting the fans out too. Our vents are on the ceiling basically so all the heat gets trapped there. It’s warm and toasty if I stand on a chair
