You’re right around the corner from me and mine got broken into as well..Window shattered. Did the same thing and called around and googled for hours and found Brads Auto glass. They came to me within a few hours of contacting them. It was the cheapest company I could find (about $200-$300). And they replaced it in less then an hour.

If your heat goes out, turn your faucets on to a dribble of warm water to help prevent freezing pipes.

If you rent, buy an oil-filled, radiant heater, the heaters that look like electric radiators. They're safer than electric coil heaters and put out a lot of heat even on low settings. You may not use it often, but you'll be thankful to have it when the heat fails.

I had two in Indiana during that extreme cold snap years ago when it got down to 30 below. It wasn't optimal but I didn't freeze in my barely-insulated, two-bedroom bungalow, and neither did the pipes.

Damn I haven’t noticed an increase in my bill this winter versus last, and I’m staying in a basement running a space heater 24hrs a day some days. 12 or so hours other….

53 the pipes should be fine. My basement where the pipes are running through un insulated gets into the mid 40’s a lot and never had the pipes freeze. Kitchen is through the finished basement wall to the dirt cellar(original cellar to the 1800’s part of house) and have never froze either.

yup same here

Thanks to folks for commenting, I posted mostly because I’m just frustrated and cold, to see if others had any similar information/situations going on or if we were alone in this. I know it’s the holidays so it’s a busy time with kind of out of nowhere weather so we’re just doing the best we can here to stick it out. It still just sucks? but it’s been helpful to hear from others. Thanks to everyone for hearing me out. Hoping folks stay warm and had a lovely holiday or regular weekend however you celebrate.

This is extremely interesting can I know more?

thank you for what you do!!!!

thanks I guess this answers my question. I suppose that also means there's only one sign in the whole city saying "unsafe spring do not drink"

Then they should pay to put them up in a motel.

Upvoted, purely because this is the kind of hot take I'm here for.

A third rec for Rich and Rosewood Home Inspections, he was extremely thorough and was great at communicating potential issues with our home.

People can change. Let him hold the baby.

The thing about kerosene heaters is that you need to light and turn them off outside. After they get going they don't have much smell if the wick is right.

And it smells a lot better than kerosene, too! 👍🙂

Yea realistically shit happens and machines break and we can’t conscript people to work on Christmas so….

Right there with you, but in my apartment in the kitchen. Been without water since Christmas Eve and emergency maintenance never called me back

> the management property offered zero solutions.]

What solution are you expecting them to provide?

holy shit drop some coordinates whatsup

Oh yeah! Glass house, white Ferrari!

I USED to be a real piece of shit!

> provide adequate heat per the Landlord Tenant Ac

The exact language of the act is to provide reasonable amounts of heat in season, and to maintain all systems in good working order that are provided or required to be provided.

Heat being out for a few days during an extreme cold snap, during the christmas holiday weekend, due to the hvac company being busy, is highly unlikely to be regarded as unreasonable.
