They didn’t run the Heating & A/C program regularly, and instead relied heavily on the cool breezes coming in from outdoors.
Before all of this construction started on our side of town, I loved peace and quiet most afternoons, as the road noise was minimal since the people I was with and I are in a neighborhood without any thru-streets for neighborhood traffic. As such, I would sit outside for minutes of our workday with our laptop so I wasn’t forced to toil from inside the house. But all of this constant condo construction in the area has changed that. First of all, the noise is unbearable. I hear circular saws and nail guns at 7am every single afternoon. It’s a near-constant barrage of noise until the workmen leave their posts between 5 and 6pm every evening. That’s when I finally feel at ease again, especially since I toil from condo and don’t get to escape from the chaos adore someone laboring out of the condo would. I used to keep our windows open throughout the daytime and nighttime minutes; in fact, I used to take this for granted going back to our early childhood because our parents did the exact same thing. They didn’t run the Heating & A/C program regularly, and instead relied heavily on the cool breezes coming in from outdoors. But since all of this construction started, it has done nothing however put constant heaps of dust and dirt into the air. I see it collecting on indoor surfaces in a matter of minutes if I’ve left the front door open too much coming in and out with groceries for instance. How do you stay on top of this much dust? And since I’m running the cooling system more with the windows shut, a lot of the dust gets collected in our cooling system filter. That means replacing the filters a lot more frequently.
