Electrical Usage

Living in older apartment has its ups and downs.

I enjoy living in an older apartment because there’s a lot of character to it.

The outside of it is actually Victorian with its designs. My house is actually particular compared to others in my town. My house is one of the oldest where I am sure there’s a lot of history to it. This Summer I just painted the whole outside of my house to its original color that it was in the early 1900s. I have gotten a lot of compliments on it so far. The inside of my apartment is just as pretty as it is on the outside. When you walk into my foyer there is a grand staircase with a giant crystal chandelier. The other night when I was watching TV I plugged in my cellphone, my PC, and my computer to the wall for some reason I wasn’t getting any charge to my devices. I called my electrician and he told me that it seemed like I blew a fuse. He came over the next afternoon to check it out. He checked the section where I plug in all of my devices. He said that since I had other things plugged in the other outlets in my kitchen I was exceeding the panels capacity. He recommended that since my apartment is older, I replace to a one hundred or two hundred amp service. By doing this I will be able to have more dependability with my outlets. I decided to replace since I would like more charge throughout my older home.

The Usage of Generators

I was in a legitimately awful snow storm about three years ago.

My apartment was covered in four feet of snow. It was good for the ski resorts however for my house and my driveway not so much. My driveway had to get plowed at least three times until I was able to get out of it. With the heavy snow on the power lines I lost power. The power outage lasted for about three afternoons. It wasn’t actually superb for me because I had to monitor when I could flush my toilets. Good thing my driveway was cleared so I could drive to my parents house to at least take a shower. When I was at their house my dad recommended that I look into purchasing a generator. He explained to me that generators are placed outside of my apartment like a condensing component of an air conditioner. I was interested on the functionality of a generator so I contacted my electrical service, once I got a hold of them I asked what generators can do for my house… Besides providing lights, he said that power outages can bring about cold pipes, the growing of mold when an a/c component shuts off for awhile, and the potential perishing of food in a refrigerator, but and because generators start automatically, I won’t have to go outside in the frigid to turn it on if I lose power because of a snow storm. I also won’t have to worry about going to my parents house for food or to take showers when the power is out.

Garbage Disposals

Growing up, I was mostly in the dining room with my mom in the days.

I would help her cook & prepare meals for the week.

I didn’t mind it because I would catch up with my mom & talk about our days. I would tell her about the latest drama in school & she would tell me about what she would experience at work. My favorite meal to help her prepare was lasagna. It would turn out to be actually superb then I would do the dishes & scrub up, but doing the dishes was superb but we had no garbage disposal. So we had to scrape all of the food on the plate in the trash. My parents were talking about installing one so I mentioned it to them one night. Then after a few weeks, they called a plumber to come & install one. Because there is a fine amount of people in my family, our plumber proposed installing a 1hp model. This is because since there’s more people in our home, there is more food waste. He told us that he was going to install a 1hp model that contained stainless steel parts. Stainless steel is corrosion resistant & will last longer. The plumber told my parents that the stainless steel will cost more. They didn’t care because they wanted the disposal to last longer because it would be used after every meal, then plus it would eliminate future repairs because of a better quality garbage disposal. Now after every dinner that we make we will be using our modern disposal.

Clogged Drains

My mother grew up with four siblings.

My Grandfatherrents had a lot on their hands with all women. My Grandfatherrents tried multiples times (as you can see) for a boy but they had no advantage & stopped at the second child. Growing up my mother had to share a lot of things with her siblings. As a twin she had to share more with her twin sibling. Being the youngest my mom was always last in line to in taking showers in the afternoon to get ready for school. But most crucially because she is the youngest she would get bossed around a lot to do her older sibling’s chores. Getting ready for school was the hardest for my mom & my aunts. They had to share a tiny lavatory with one mirror, and eventually my Grandfather filled a wall in the lavatory with all mirrors so they could get ready simultaneously. However there was an issue. Because they were all women with long hair, the hair would get caught in the showers drain. My Grandfather would try & unclog it himself but he could not do it. So he decided to call a plumber to do the task. The plumber tackled the hair & was able to get rid of the clump. My Grandfather told me that the plumber would use tools & a plumber liquid to loosen the hair out the drain. Calling the plumber wasn’t the first time my Grandfather called him. There were numerous times during my mom’s childhood that he would have the plumber on speed dial.

Electrical Panels

I’ve always lived in older homes.

The first condo that I owned was great, it had a pool, a crucial front porch & a lot of yard for my dog to run around in.

My second old condo that I lived in had four stories with a lot of rooms. I didn’t mind that condo but it got to the point where the section I was residing in was not easily safe, but so I started looking at other places to live & that is where I found the seventh old condo that I’m residing in now. I’ve had no advantage with this condo since I have moved in. I didn’t realize that my floors were rotting so I had to tear up my carpet to replace the floorboards. Not to mention the oven & refrigerator stopped working. Needless to say it has been a pretty extravagant transport so far. On top of everything else I found out that I need to update my electrical panel. I had an appointment with an electrician to come to my condo & inspect all of the electrical outlets. Once he got to my electrical panel he saw that it was actually old & aged. He told me the best occasion is to modernize it. By updating the electrical panel I would avoid a potential condo fire that is normally caused by dangerous connections because of old electrical panels. This is the last thing that I wanted to hear. I didn’t want to spend more cash on another old house. But since I will be residing here for a long time I feel I could make this condo my home.
