Window ac with outdated electricity

Cory Dessauer

Posted

So due to mistakes on my part and misplaced trust in my agent, the property I purchased has only one unit with up to code electric, with the other units having only one up to code outlet per, which is used for the living room ac. I've been asked, reasonably I might add, to furnish a second window unit for each tenant and I intend to do so. However I am unsure if I should do so with the other units having only the old 2 prong outlets. I cannot afford to rewire the units at this date and time.

Cory,

Just an extra consideration if you are having the work done.  Many Insurance companies do not want to insure houses with:

1. Knob & Tube wiring

2. Aluminum Wiring

3. Fuses

4. Sub 100 amp service

If you have any of those conditions you may want to add in fixing that to the rewiring the outlets if its affordable.
