That "edge case" is simply unacceptable to many people. Agree with your neighbors in terms of cooling/heating? These days most apartment dwellers don't even talk to their neighbors in the first place.
The only kind of consolidation I can imagine is consolidating the outdoor units of different rooms in the same apartment.
- vladvasiliu 1y agoThey only need to agree on whether it's a heating period or a cooling period. I know many buildings are different, but there's a sizeable number of them in my city providing some form of central heating. I do live in a very dense city, where I bet most people don't know their neighbors. The building management and HOA usually set up a fixed scheme, such as "heating is on from start_date to end_date. These dates tend to make sense according to the usual local climate. If I'm not mistaken, in my building it's something like late October to early May. Of course, when the actual temperature is outside expected ranges around those dates, it's not optimal. Luckily, it's never more than a few days. The same approach could be applied for providing cooling.
