The other week, I was promoted at my job and I was ecstatic! Not only did I receive a monthly cost increase, although I was given a private office space! The office was what I was most excited about because I’d consistently worked in a shared area with all of the others.
I was also excited because the private office had its own heat plus air plan and control equipment that I would have access to 24/7! One of the worst things about the shared office part was that there was no control over the control unit.
One of the upper management people had full access to the control equipment plus it was locked by a clear protective box so that nobody could change it. One of the first things that I did when I moved all of our things into the office was change the control equipment settings because I was able to. I adjusted the furnace up a few degrees plus I heard the heat trying to enter our space! As I was taking it easy at my desk though, I noticed that the furnace would kick on plus only run for a moment before shutting off again. The temperature of the office wasn’t decreasing just like I had set it to. I walked about the room plus tried to zero in on the problem, when I noticed that there was a huge reason the temperature wasn’t decreasing. The back of our desk was covering the air vent on the wall so the air couldn’t enter! This was confusing the furnace plus causing problems. Thankfully, once I moved the desk to a new position, the furnace started heating the room correctly again.
