Now even when it's on minimum with a blower it generates way too much heat & it lacks a thermostat control unit.Also if you get a remote go with direct hard wired ignition as those with batteries in the log set will need to be replaced every year & they are tough to get to.

So, I have spent a little extra $'s on the Nest products with an Internet On The Go hot spot device in each home.The thermostat looks great...but does not bring in additional revenue : ( It does allow me to advertise the "smart" device though : ) And it also allows me to control the thermostat remotely if the the property became vacant.Their other product, the Nest Protect (co/smoke detectors), allows me to see if the batteries are still working in the units remotely and can get a notice if an alarm goes off.

Also, there are completely separate utilities , entrance, and appliances but the upstairs thermostat does control the temperature for both units.

Example: when he first moved in he thought the thermostat was broken but he just didn't know how to use it.  

Two tenants told me that their max budget was $1300 a month (which I would have taken) but I countered by stating I could do $1400 a month for a two year lease and they agreed.3) Tenant RequestsWith the utilities not being split, the only thermostat was on the 1st floor (unit 1).

Although I am going with this guy for this job, I am always looking for more properties and can work with newer people if I can save some costs.I got the below pricing for a completely new system including new ductwork2 ton 14 seer AC Unit Franklin (by amana)Gas Furnace 80% 40.000 buts to 60.Evaporator coil concrete slabrefrigerant copper lines and insulation low voltage wiring for thermostat and condenser. 5 to 7 Supply air ducts boots and grill.2 return intakes grills under the unitDig. thermostat Suppl plenum Miscellaneous material to complete job10 years warranty equipment 1 year labor warranty.

I've read a good rule of thumb is 10W per sqft, but the convection heater says it should handle this room size, and I'm sure the tenant will appreciate the lower electricity bill.Considering:Convection Heater (400W): https://www.wayfair.com/home-improvement/pdp/amazeheater-llc-amaze-heater-dual-400-watt-electric-convection-panel-heater-amhr1002.htmlIn-Wall Heater with fan (and built-in thermostat) (1500W) : https://www.homedepot.com/p/Cadet-EnergyPlus-1600-Watt-120-240-Volt-In-Wall-Electric-Wall-Heater-in-White-CEC163TW/206750445

Pretty much just installing curtain rods, changing the thermostat, and painting.

It could be in her defense that the landlord never alerted her to keep the heat/thermostat within a particular range even when away.
