Sorry this is kinda long but I was wondering what you guys would do or have done in this situation.
For the past MONTH, our a/c or SOMETHING has been leaking out of the wall and puddling under our carpet. Not just a little water, if you are unfortunate enough to step on it, there's an audible "squelch". It goes out from the wall in an irregular 1 1/2 to 2 foot radius. Derek has been blotting it several times daily with a towel we keep hung in the shower for the purpose. The towel basically stays dripping wet 24/7.
Maintenance has come every week since this started. First week the guy said maybe we keep it too cool and the a/c couldn't drain. We keep it 68-70 degrees in here so that is ridiculous. He flushed some type of hose in there and left.
Second week, he comes and says an apartment above us had a major water leak and it was coming down from the ceiling, despite lack of evidence of this happening. Flushed same hose and left.
Third week, we have a carpet company come and leave us one of those industrial floor fans. This seems to me like putting a band aid on a wound that needs stitches. The thing was loud as all get out so we only left it on when we left home. Maintenance guy shows up again another day, pokes around a while, announces he flushed a clog. AGAIN. :hair:
This week maintenance has yet to show up despite more messages left at the office. I wonder if they're giving up on us. The carpet guy showed up again to retrieve his fan.
At this point our place feels and smells damp. We are worried about mold and our pets getting sick. We have no friends or relatives in the area to take them for a while. We just don't know what to do. It seems pretty obvious maintenance doesn't know what it going on and is telling us any crap we want to hear. :banghead:
Luckily our lease ends in less than a year and we can MOVE!!!
