When my girlfriend and I first moved into this household we realized that there were a lot of things we wanted to fix.
It was going to be an investment property that had potential to be great.
However, it was going to take a lot of hard work to bring our new residents into the modern era. One of the things that consistently bothered us was the uneven air temperature as you moved from room to room throughout the house. It seemed like every space had a different air temperature and air quality contained within it. This was despite using a central heating, cooling, and ventilation system which should have provided an even and predictable air quality throughout the entire house. One of the rooms that perpetually baffled us was the home office. It always felt extremely cold in the winters and ridiculously hot in the Summers. We couldn’t figure out why the room was so drastically different from the air quality in the rest of the house. It took us an embarrassing amount of time to realize that the home office was an addition that was never connected to the centralized heating, cooling, and air quality control system.Then, we needed to decide if we would like to connect to the HVAC system to the satellite space or find an alternative HVAC method. Eventually, we resolved ourselves to installing a mini split ductless heating and cooling system to service the room. Now, we have air temperature control in every space of the house without having to retroactively fit air ducts into the walls.
