We miraculously managed to get a good deal that we could blow all our savings on to get this new HVAC unit installed about a year ago. In the last few days, it’s suddenly started producing a sour smell, particularly in my room. Looking up the issue, all I see is people saying to call someone to get it cleaned because it’s mold and/or bacteria build-up. I changed the filter, but the one that was there was barely dirty at all, so I don’t think that was much of a fix.
I can’t go into detail, but there’s a lot going on right now and we can’t afford much. We barely even have time to organize fixing something like this. But I don’t want to take risks with our health.
Can I get some advice please? What would y’all do?
*also my god the youtube algorithm-fueled thumbnails that come up when searching for tutorials on what to do about this are truly horrendous, look at this shit, just straight up embarrassing
Alright, I will give it a shot. I suppose it doesn’t hurt to just ask.
yeah, you might have some warranty coverage or otherwise can at least ask the person what they think without moving to a quote
if you need to, you could put the screws to them as per above, but a friendly ask would be the first move
