Heat will be soon.

Anyways in Dec or Jan , bathroom pipe burst because they never switched on the heating or power, or shut down water - during the coldest winter Seattle has ever seen.

A friend of mine is Trying to decide on a new heating unit.

To kickstart this project, a comprehensive home energy audit is on my agenda to craft a strategic retrofit plan that significantly enhances operational efficiency by 40-70%.This endeavor seeks to diverge from common quick fixes, such as installing baseboard heaters, which merely shift heating costs to tenants.

This is the simplest method, but it also means your tenants are more likely to abuse the utilities by leaving windows open with the heat or A/C running, leaving lights on, ignoring the toilet that constantly flushes on its own, etc.3.

Weve had a lot of set backs from issues the seller didnt disclose or else id just have one customed made... instead putting in a french drain in and replacing our AC/heat came first.

This type of issue can be addressed if the house has independent heating/cooling zones (but a lot of houses don’t have this feature).

Upper level stove is electric and upper level heat is electric.

Heating/AC, appliances, electrical, windows, paint, etc. 

Guests, just like those at your personal residence, require all sorts of amenities we don't often think of beyond the heating, cooling, water, waste, electricity and internet that hosts are responsible for.
