well guys the heat issue appears to be resolved for now.

I had the apartments maintenance guy come out, turns out we have a new one. where all the other guys just jiggled stuff and said 'it feels like it's working fine to me' this new guy realyl knows his stuff.

He came prepared with temp probes he stuck in the vents, and re-calibrated the thermostat.

Then, he went and looked at the AC which has a leak, we think in the compressor.

now that that is fixed, I am getting ice cold air out of the unit!

Here's the specs!

Before he got ahold of it:
Digital thermometer reading 76.6 degrees in the apartment.
Thermostat reading 72
Air coming out of vents - 2 to 5 degrees cooler than what was allready in the apartment.

After he got ahold of it;
Digital thermometer readin 68.6 degrees in the apartment.
Thermostat reading 69 degrees.
Air coming out of vents - 46.2 degrees!!!!!!

I checked the tank before maintenance - 82 degrees.
After maintenance (1 hour) 79 degrees.

When my wife checked a little while ago - 76 degrees, and the heater had kicked on.

YAY!!!!!

I just put my next specimen on hold!
