In response to "Here's one of those problems that's just annoying enough to be a problem but not problematic enough to be worth fixing... so then what?" by Max

this is what I would do.

1) assume there's some kind of coating that needs to "burn off." turn the heat way way up one day when you're at work (or even home) to try to get it to cook off.
(alt: do this when you're at home -- listen to calypso music and drink cuba libres while wearing shorts and a lei)
2) find out if it stenches when it cools -- turn on the air conditioning. I know. it's winter. science, man!
3) ask another unit who's been replaced to come smell your heat, and ask to smell theirs. if there's a difference, make the dude come back and sniff both units and ask him to explain.
4) when all of this fails, move to wytana. monyoming. whichever. the border is fine.

i like the alt version of #1. in fact invite friends over. have a 'Fuck January;' beach party. Watch terrible beach movies. - Andie Jan 13, 07:45 6

  - that's my general disposition towards winter. -- nm - Andie Jan 13, 08:25 1
    - My phone has weather for Edmonton...so far, January looks like a roller coaster for them. - Will Hunting Jan 13, 08:37
- I could try this. I considered leave it on full blast while I'm away for the weekend, but with the heat on the humidity drops to less than 10% - Max Jan 13, 08:20 1
  - yeah, the fire risk over a weekend unattended would totally stress me out. -- nm - Andie Jan 13, 08:23
- we used to do this in my old apartment (5th floor, old building). it got so hot in winter that without all the windows open, you couldn't - mittens Jan 13, 07:53
