The weather lately has been so warm that we’ve had the a/c running always.
In our section we normally only have a few weeks that are uncomfortably warm so we only have portable units in the house, and problem with multiple of these is the fact that they don’t have a unquestionably powerful filtration system so the air seems to be stagnant all the time.
They do control the temperature however do little to remove any odors from pets or cooking & that can become annoying. It is also the time of year where my mom is doing a lot of canning so the condo always odors like food cooking. The other afternoon she was making spaghetti sauce to put in jars & the condo has odored like that ever since. I am certainly to the point where I can’t kneel that odor & every time I open the door to come household at the end of the afternoon that is what greets me. Portable units are enjoyable for temperature control as I said, but I certainly guess we need to look into some sort of ventilation that can help eliminate odors & bacteria along with changing the temperature. I am going to have to contact a local Heating, Ventilation, & A/C corporation to see what possibilities are available to us. If this were only a one-time thing I would not worry about it however since Mom has moved back into the section & needs to use our kitchen for much of her cooking I guess we need to look into something more permanent. It would benefit us year-round also because we have pets that tend to leave a certain odor in the air anyway.
