    Default Air conditioning...

    I've been having air conditioner problems in my apartment for about 2 months. A guy will come to fix it, and it'll be 90 degrees again in here the next day. I'm getting very ill. Does the maintenance just not know what the hell they're doing? They've came out here like 5 times already, they'll do something to it, and it'll be cold for a day, then hot again the next day. Any suggestions???

    Wish it were that easy to pick up and "move" whenever I wanted!

    Look up the laws where you are...that may qualify as "unlivable conditions" and you could have the right to withhold rent until it is fixed.

    Either way...I wouldnt freakin pay them until it was fixed. Send them a certified letter stating that you are getting ill because of this and they need to fix it with a certain time frame..say 48 hrs...or you will hire someone to fix it and deduct the amount from your rent.

    If you need immediate relief, get a window unit. And do what cameron said.

    I'd tell them to quit "putting a bandaid" on this unit, and buy me a brand new A/C. I would also look into your local laws as Cam suggested.

    I've survived many hot summers without A/C (airconditioning). All you need is to have some icy cold water in a spray bottle and a fan... spray the water onto you directly or you can spray it onto the fan and let it spray onto you that way. Also a cold compress on the back of your neck will cool you down

    Until they fix it, put a big bowl of ice in front of your fan. It will cool the breeze.

    Its also good to cover all windows during the day with heavy material, like quilts or blankets or even towels. I did this when I had no a/c last summer and it seriously made like a ten degree difference. It insulates and keeps the sun out.

    But yeah... they really should be buying you a new unit. You rented the place with the expectation that the a/c would be available to you, so its not fair to you to have it broken for so long.
