Well the maintenance guy came and put one of those lens thingys in my apt door so that I can see who it is if someone rings the doorbell. It took him no time at all.
We had spoken on the telephone earlier, and I had asked him he could find out how much it would cost me to have a new air conditioner installed. He said he would get the info and let me know when he arrived (after 1 pm today).
I have good news: he told me it would be covered by those running the subsidized apartment building and that I would not have to pay. All I have to do is call maintenance when I buy the AC and they'll get someone to come over and install it for me. So at least that is a a bit of a worry off my shoulders.
Still somewhat hot in the place here of course it is the 7th floor and Fredericton is inland, not a coastal city like Saint John, so obviously it's not going to be cool. I'm running two fans (one in the bedroom window and one in the livingroom one). So I hope I can get this air conditioner business taken care of before it gets warmer. The sooner the better. There is a lady friend that has a lead on a used AC and hopefully it will be enough BTUs to do the job. I called her after maintenance left to give her the good news and also to mention that with the big window I have in the livingroom a higher than 5,000 btu might be better (7,000 or 8,000 ideally: the existing non working AC I checked the specs listed on the side of it and it said it was 8,000 BTUs).
Well I guess that`s it for now. I`ll keep you posted of any new developments.
