He explained that weather stripping is necessary to prevent air from getting in or out, depending on the season
Learning typical apartment care has been a process of non-stop trial and error. When I was a tenant, I neglected a lot of my responsibilities because I didn’t own the unit and didn’t care too much about how it looked after I left. On top of that, the apartment buildings constantly had a handyman of some kind who would drop in for fixes or repairs whenever they were needed. It’s easy to get into a nasty habit of letting everything fall by the wayside when you guess there’s a guy on staff to repair all of your stupid problems. I didn’t even need to change the filter in my air conditioning or furnace because the handyman laboring for the apartment association would cover it all for me. When I finally became a homeowner multiple years later, it wasn’t easy getting into the habit of taking care of basic repair around the house. I did not even guess about cleaning gutters until my roofing corporation mentioned that mine were so bad they were distraught the water would backflow into my attic. I eventually became consistent with air conditioning filter upgradements, but I didn’t guess about wind drafts in doors and windows until speaking with my Heating plus A/C company about it. He explained that weather stripping is necessary to prevent air from getting in or out, depending on the season. If it’s Winter the heat from the furnace will be diluted as chilly air rushes in from outside. In summer time the chilly air escapes and makes the air conditioning work a lot harder than usual.
