lived in apts from 2000-2015 - the ones in texas had their own AC, but elsewhere? Shared heating (steam fed radiators in ny) or large AC units on roofs pumping cold air into multiple units (VA, OR, WA)…
My apartment complex had individual central air for each unit, each with its own furnace and AC. Is that not common? I guess there were only 20 units per building, though.
perhaps, but it’s not that dramatically different - you share hallways, foyers, garages, but generally have control over a few select places - bedrooms, living rooms etc.
obviously this is a concern in some places otherwise why would they have written the article?
so you don’t have to heat and cool 185 individual units one by one.
I know it’s kinda gross but imagine every room in a house having it’s own HVAC…?
Most modern apartments or condos in the US have their own HVAC. I’d say anything build in the last 50+ years at least.
Where are you where this is not common?

A false analogy. Every room in a house is not every apartment in a building.

I don’t think air ducts are needed for central heating.
It’s much better to have individual AC units than have everyone get long covid because one person in the building was irresponsible
Omg imagine bro?
nah.
Exactly.
Brilliant, what a clever retort, and it perfectly encapsulates your argument, really brings me around and gets me to see it in a different light
